Overamped automatically redirects AMP website to their original version, effectively disabling AMP in Safari. HOW IT WORKS When opening a link from any source – including Google Search, Google News, Yahoo! JAPAN, any website, and native apps – Overamped will find and redirect to the canonical version automatically. This means it will work with all AMP and Yandex Turbo pages no matter how the page is opened. OPEN NATIVE APPS If you have the native app installed for a website that is redirected Overamped will automatically open the native app rather than the website. SAFARI HISTORY Websites redirected by Overamped won't appear in your history and going back or forward will never load the AMP or Yandex Turbo page. DISABLE OVERAMPED FOR SPECIFIC WEBSITES If you prefer the AMP or Yandex Turbo version of a website you can disable Overamped for any websites you choose. STATISTICS Overamped can display statistics, including how many AMP results have been found and how many redirections Overamped has performed. All statistics are collected and remain exclusively on-device. PRIVACY Overamped does not transmit any data off the device. This means that none of your data is shared, sold, or otherwise given to any third parties.
