TrustedBlocker is a small app, which enhances surfing with Safari on your iPhone or iPad: Disturbing advertisments like overlays or blinking banners are reduced to a minimum and thus your experience surfing the web is greatly improved. Did you know that about 50%-90% of data being transferred to your device while you visit a website is to display adverts? Precious amounts of your data included in your plan is wasted for content you likely did not want to see. TrustedBlocker stops loading of such elements and Safari can load websites much faster than before - and on top of that you save data. With TrustedBlocker you have full control over what content is being blocked and from which domains (URLs). The app shows you a list of all blocked domains and you have total control over what is being blocked. You can add new domains yourself and don't need for us to update the block list. And don't worry, TrustedBlocker cannot save any data about your surfing habits as it has no way to see where you surf. On top of that the only connection TrustedBlocker establishes with it's server is to download a list of domains to block or if you report a website to have unwanted content displayed. * Speeds up surfing with Safari on your iPhone or iPad * Stops being tracked by social networks (has to be explicitly activated in TrustedBlocker) * No transmitting of data to TrustedBlocker's Server. * No tracking of surfing habits. * Absolute transparency about what is being blocked including the domain names.

The internet is lava now — scam links, shady trackers, and pages that follow you everywhere. Lava Security blocks known-bad domains right on your iPhone. Turn it on, pick a protection level, and get back to using your phone. No account. No signup. Nothing routed through us. How it works: Before apps and websites connect, Lava checks domain names on this phone — matching them against curated blocklists for phishing, scams, malware, and trackers. Everything happens locally, right on your device. Filters, made simple: - Pick Core, Balanced, or Extra depending on how much you want blocked - Freely choose from more curated blocklists — ads, trackers, adult content, gambling, and more - Fine-tune what's allowed or blocked, domain by domain - Auto-switch filters with iOS Focus and Automation (Sleep, Work, and more) — no taps needed See what Lava's doing: Open Activity to see what's been blocked and check Domain History for recent lookups. Clear it whenever you want — it's kept on this phone for 7 days and nowhere else. If you send a bug report, only aggregate counts go with it — never your actual domain history. Your privacy, by design: Domain filtering happens on your iPhone, not on our servers. Lava Security LLC doesn't receive a feed of the sites you visit. DNS queries go to whichever resolver you choose — your device's default, or an encrypted option like Cloudflare or Quad9 — never through Lava. Lava's core protection is free, keeping your everyday browsing safe. Need more filters or custom blocklists? Lava Security Plus is there when you want it. Let's give the weird web some simple protection. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
