### 1/5 — Doesn't work!

*2025-07-21*

I paid, downloaded...everything is on and it doesn't block ANYTHING

### 3/5 — Not working because it doesn’t show up as an extension

*2025-05-30*

so a few weeks ago this app just completely stopped working when websites and keywords weren’t being blocked. i then noticed that in the settings, it wouldn’t pop up on the extensions page in the safari page, yet other extensions would show up and work fine. so what happened? before this, the app worked perfectly.

**Developer response:** It sounds like a system-related issue. If the extension suddenly disappeared from Safari’s settings, a device reboot usually resolves the problem. Please try restarting your iPhone or iPad and then check Safari > Extensions again. If it still doesn’t show up, reinstalling the app may help. Let us know if the issue continues — we’re here to help!

### 3/5 — Great idea.. Has flaws..

*2025-05-12*

I love the idea but a big problem is that it’s easy to turn off the safari extension.. either safari needs to get an update to disable changes to extensions in safari through screen time, or you must look for another way like dns… if we can figure something out I’ll update my review but otherwise that’s a big flaw in the system and makes the passcode/face id lock on the app practically useless

### 3/5 — Settings don’t really work

*2025-03-14*

If Remover is activated I’m not able to access any social website (in my case instagram) even if Social Block is not active. That makes this Extension useless for my case. On the other hand, if Social Block is activated and Remover is not, it won’t block any socials regardless if they’re selected or not.

### 4/5 — Simple, Easy, Some Issues

*2024-03-11*

I love simple safari extensions and this does everything I want it to do. 
Only issue is some parts of a website might not load for some reason. 
For instance Reddit won’t load comments.
Otherwise worth it.

### 5/5 — Good and efficient app, no obvious cons

*2025-10-01*

Very nice, easy to use and efficient app. The cost-performance ratio seems to be quite unbeatable compared to other similar apps. It is quite notable that this app still uses a one-time payment, while the majority of the others are now using subscriptions. After-sale service is also very fast to answer. Finallay, the fact that the app is working in the background even closed is very practical.

Edit: fixed after update. :) no complaints here!
