### 4/5 — It works, but it is a sledgehammer approach

*2019-01-22, version 1.04*

You can block all images, but you have to block them from all websites. You can’t be selective and ask for only a certain image to be blocked. It is all or nothing. 

Although it seems to be working fine with my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9”, it hasn’t been updated in two years! I am running iOS 12; would be nice to see an update. 

Also I am concerned about privacy. Would like a clear privacy policy.

1. Allow us to block only select images

2. Update app 

3. Detailed Privacy policy on data collection (hopefully there is no data collection)

### 5/5 — Great App But...

*2018-08-01, version 1.04*

It blocks most of the ads but the web page loading slows down just a bit. Hopefully the author will update this app again. There are pages it doesn’t block the ads properly aswell but those already reported.

### 4/5 — Why, though...?

*2018-04-22, version 1.04*

How hard is it to block a freaking BarkBox ad, though? And why is it only BarkBox getting through? It’s weird. Sometimes I open clickbaity stories on Facebook (from sites like Diply and the like) and then in Safari just so I can see them without ads. Most of the time it works. For whatever reason, though, the BarkBox ads and only the BarkBox ads get through the blocker. So weird.

### 5/5 — Wonderful! Legibility at last!

*2018-03-28, version 1.04*

I got this on a recommendation, as something that could make a certain website with a horrid font legible for me.

I have iBlockify set to block font downloads, and while some other websites look strange, the one that was a problem is legible at last! I don't mind the other sites looking weird, because I can read them, too. 

Ad blocking seems OK, but it wasn't my main reason for getting this app so it's hard for me to judge.

### 3/5 — Fair

*2017-06-10, version 1.04*

When I first downloaded this, it was great. But the longer I have it, the more pop-ups I get.

### 5/5 — Just downloaded and installed...

*2017-05-21, version 1.04*

The results? Awesome!!!! I should marry to this genius 😃

### 5/5 — Best adblocker in App Store

*2016-11-02, version 1.04*

Seriously this App deserves more attention. It works as advertised. It blocks ads, social media widgets, comments and trackers. It's highly customizable as well. The websites load considerably faster than other adblockers and it doesn't slow video loading in websites like Streamable. My only complaint is that the developer should add a "button" so that users can press on it and get updates from within the app. 

Rating : 5 stars

### 5/5 — Excellent Utility

*2016-09-02, version 1.04*

Works as advertised and is a great tool for help in managing bandwidth on a cellular budget. The "Test in Safari" feature worked flawlessly. I disabled Focus in preference for iBlockify.

### 5/5 — Great app, used it to filter images

*2016-08-31, version 1.04*

Most of the alternatives I could find were paid. This app works great and was free. I got it to filter images because I was over my data limit.

### 1/5 — "test in Safari"

*2016-08-25, version 1.04*

...so I did. There was a big fat ad on the website that they chose as an example to use.
