### 1/5 — No more updates

*2024-05-10, version 1.0.1*

The whitelist feature does not work with newest version of safari at least for me, good app but beware since you do have to pay for pro feature.

### 4/5 — Great app but missing simple feature

*2023-03-11, version 1.0.1*

I’m using the pro version and can whitelist sites that I want to show images for. 
But what I really want is the opposite — to show images for all sites except for a select few (blacklist)

### 3/5 — Not like i though

*2022-03-26, version 1.0.1*

It loads the first images but the rest is fine

### 1/5 — Does not work, save your money

*2021-08-22, version 1.0.1*

Old app does not stop annoying videos that automatically play on websites.

### 1/5 — Not compatible with Google Unusual Traffic

*2021-04-12, version 1.0.1*

When I have the image blocker enabled and I start another Safari session I get the Google Unusual Network Traffic pop up warning and reevaluation is required... but with the images blocked that captcha session will not run as it needs images.  It is a vicious circle, s as the images have to be enabled for captcha.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2021-01-18, version 1.0.1*

Does exactly what it says, blocks images. The whitelist updates instantly so you can easily toggle it when you need to see something.

I use those with another full adblocker, so I can keep my overall protection while I disable image blocking

### 2/5 — doesn’t work

*2019-05-24, version 1.0.1*

I got this to avoid seeing images of disgusting bugs but they loaded anyway! Horrible.

### 1/5 — Not impressed

*2018-12-29, version 1.0.1*

Google Images is totally unphased by this app. There’s also no password function on the whitelist, which means it’s easy and fast to get around this app and look at whatever you want. Overall, great for speeding up web surfing, useless for guarding against explicit content.

### 4/5 — Works!

*2017-05-11, version 1.0.1*

Works exactly as described. Blocks all images and videos. Downside is that the ability to whitelist costs money, which I'm willing to pay. Also, could you please make the app disable the ability to add websites to the whitelist when iOS restrictions are turned on? Otherwise, my son can just white list every website, and that defeats the purpose of putting this app on his phone. Thank you!
