Content blockers are on and YouTube.com isn’t on the whitelist. I’m not sure if it’s the app or YouTube developers finding ways to get around content blockers and force me to stay “engaged.” ### 4/5 — One problem *2026-06-08, version 1.11* I love this but I need this to block comments in the mobile app versions too. I upload art videos and I need the mobile app but I just need the comments to be hidden so I don’t get into useless arguments ### 3/5 — Used to work *2026-05-02, version 1.11* This was so great. No more time wasting and aggravation. But with iOS 26 and on it doesn’t work anymore. I tried all the usual but comments still load. ### 3/5 — Misses some websites *2025-05-27, version 1.11* Really good service that blocks a lot of sites. However, there are still some sites where I can see comments. I would like to see it improved so all comments are gone. ### 3/5 — I must be missing something *2024-04-07, version 1.11* I must be missing something, but it’ll block comments on pretty much all websites except instagram on iOS safari, which is my biggest reason for wanting to block comments. Hoping to figure that issue out. ### 3/5 — Breaks every single time *2023-07-31, version 3.3* Reinstalled and still resets the whitelist everytime it's opened. Dunno how such an app-breaking bug still exists. ### 2/5 — Random-person103 *2023-07-10, version 1.11* I like the idea of it but it sadly doesn’t work on YouTube which was the reason why I downloaded it. ### 2/5 — Doesnt work on Pinterest *2023-04-11* Why does this not work on pinterest? Its the only reason i was searcing for a comment blocker. You would not believe me if i said. Comment sexual free Pinterest would be my saving grace. ### 2/5 — Does not work in ventura *2023-01-31, version 3.3* I thought of trying this but clearly does not work in ventura. ### 3/5 — Not working now *2023-01-03* It’s not working now for some reason. Not blocking youtube comments which is the reason I downloaded it for. However when this app works it is great. ### 3/5 — Great concept. *2022-12-22, version 1.11* I like what it does, but I would love it even more if it can work on all the individual apps.I downloaded it so I couldn’t have comments on any of my apps and I could watch content without opinions. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not shut up Disqus *2026-03-28, version 1.11* It works for most comment sections…except Disqus, which is the worst of the worst regarding comments. What a shame… ### 1/5 — Complete waste of time *2026-02-05, version 1.11* This thing doesn’t block anything ### 1/5 — False Advertising *2025-07-20, version 1.11* Doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — No longer works *2025-06-21, version 1.11* Isn’t blocking anything on iOS safari ### 1/5 — Does Not Work on Mobile *2023-12-20* Works great on desktop, but it will not work on mobile sites unless you request desktop website. ### 1/5 — No good for social apps *2023-10-01, version 1.11* Doesn’t work on apps like instagram ### 2/5 — Not Working *2026-05-15, version 1.11* Dosent seem to work for newer iOS models which is disappointing. Really valued this when it used to work. ### 2/5 — I wish it worked for me *2026-04-13, version 1.11* It’s a nice idea, and I’m sure it works on some sites, but it doesn’t work on YouTube, which was what I really needed it for. ### 2/5 — Does not work on YouTube in Safari *2024-04-29, version 1.11* Sadly it does not block YouTube comments, which is a real shame. ### 2/5 — pinterest *2024-03-04, version 3.3* i know, not really the kind of website to use this for, but trust me pinterest comments have given me migranes, some of these kids wont last a day in the world on their own, so i beg you, please let this work on pinterest.co.uk (the web domain im using, because .com seems to be blocked) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works Great! *2025-09-14, version 4.0* Eliminates the comment ‘noise’ on every website I have tried it on and works in concert quite well with my chosen ad-blocker. ### 5/5 — Keep your sanity *2025-06-17, version 4.0* Block the trolls, comments are as useless as the people posting them. ### 5/5 — Reclaiming Some Sanity *2025-06-05, version 4.0* Can’t recommend this Safari Extension enough! ### 5/5 — Works perfectly. *2024-10-11, version 1.11* Keep your comments to yourself. ### 5/5 — PEACE AT LAST!! WOULD RECOMMEND!! *2024-09-10, version 1.11* This application is a total gamechanger!! My problem, specifically revolves around seeing YouTube troglodyte comments sections. No other content blocker has a working custom elements blocker, or straight up comment blocker, that isn't behind some stupid paywall subscription. I am finally at peace, and can enjoy the content on YouTube, minus the mentally ill, delusional, toxic, uninformed, argumentative, irrational, chaotic, petty, unreasonable, compulsive, attention seeking, reactionary, spiteful, hateful, soulless commenters. ### 5/5 — I would happily donate to this app. *2024-03-15, version 1.11* It saves me time online I would have wasted reading comments. By default, this should be included on all phones and internet devices as it really helps me spend less time getting distracted online. ### 5/5 — Works Perfectly *2023-12-31* I don’t know what happened, but it started working properly. ### 5/5 — Absolutely Fantastic. *2023-08-12, version 3.3* This Safari extension has been a game changer in terms of how I browse the web. Thank you to everyone who made this extension. ### 5/5 — Actually works *2022-10-18, version 1.11* Wish I heard about this app sooner. I’ve gotten fed up with the misandry and faith bashing, but never thought of getting something like this to make it all go away. Did the steps, toggled the extension, and checked a few websites… 2 of the 3 worked. Now I can watch videos without worrying about the pricks of YouTube underneath titles; if only this extension worked for Twitter, though… ### 5/5 — Improves Internet Experience *2022-09-19, version 3.3* Really improves the internet experience. It's easy to get hooked into nonsense - the websites themselves tend to push the most "engaging" material - so it's helpful to not even have a chance to see anything inflammatory. Perhaps I've got a setting off, but it seems to me that even when I click to see comments, the blocker knows to keep on hiding them since it's clearly my moment of weakness when I need it most. Definitely recommend this tool. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
