What's New in Protego for Reddit

3.11

September 29, 2026

Protego 3.11 lets you pause filtering and choose where each keyword hides posts. No account, no tracking, and your lists stay in your own iCloud. WHAT'S NEW: - Pause filtering for 5 minutes to 3 hours from the Safari popup or the Filter tab. It resumes on its own. - Keyword scope: choose where each keyword hides posts, like only on Home, Popular, and News, or in certain communities. IMPROVEMENTS: - Filter a post's website from the Protego menu, on new and old Reddit. - Reddit Answers also turns the words Reddit links in comments back into plain text. - Settings search scrolls to the setting you pick and highlights it. - In compact view, the Protego button sits right after Reddit's own buttons. FIXES: - A deleted keyword no longer keeps hiding posts in another Reddit window. - A post hidden in your feed shows again on its community page and its author's profile. - On a zoomed-in page, the Protego menu opens where you can see it. - Leaving Reveal Mode clears every red outline. - The Reddit Answers setting works again after Reddit changed its search. - Smaller wording fixes in Spanish and Portuguese.

Not janky and has good blocking options

I’ve been trying to cut back on my time mindlessly browsing, and this app actually has a lot of settings to address this. Works better than my other options / workarounds. Seems to be worth the small fee and I hope the development continues

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words!

Impressive

Clean design working well

Reddit page no scrolling

Had high hopes for this app as it states working without no login. But that is unfortunately not the case as this app can not remove or disable the Reddit upselling by requesting to use the official app on iOS and locking the page scrolling. In that sense I think what this app claims is false advertising.

Response from developer

Thanks for the detail, it turned out to be very helpful. You were right that something is broken, Reddit is running a test that shows a fraction of mobile web visitors a full screen panel pushing the app, and that panel also freezes the page so it will not scroll. Protego did not recognize it: both the panel and the way it locks scrolling are new. I have reproduced both, and a fix is on the way. One separate thing, in case it also applies to you: if the Reddit app is installed, Safari itself shows a banner above Reddit pages. Safari draws that one outside the page, so no extension can reach it. Uninstalling the Reddit app is the only way to remove it. Sorry for the inconvenience. Email hello@getprotego.app if you would like me to let you know when the fix ships or if you have any more details, I've received your review on Aug 1st and I'm working on the fix on the same day. I hope to get this fix out in a day or two and hope you'll reconsider your rating if the fix works for you! Edgar

Great app for filtering Reddit and very responsive developer

The app does what it does very well and the dev is very responsive and open to feature requests. Strong recommendation.

Makes reading easier

Works well and hides a bunch of clutter. The recent update added a lot of new features like hiding gif-only comments that used to take up a whole page, now neatly collapsed. The keyword filter is great for getting rid of trump everything everywhere. Honestly I wouldn't be able to use reddit without it.
