1Blocker lets you block obtrusive ads, sneaky trackers, and annoying elements on sites. With 1Blocker, you’re safe online and nothing will distract you from enjoying sites. 1Blocker is very easy to use — just flip a couple of switches to start blocking ads and trackers. The app will automatically receive cloud updates to the built-in filters silently, so you don’t need to do anything. It’s as simple as setting and forgetting. 1Blocker is a fully native app designed to extend Safari naturally. It’s lightweight and doesn’t drain your battery by taking up your device’s resources. The blocking itself is super fast because Safari does it itself. We only provide filters to Safari and don’t modify webpages in any way. This vastly improves efficiency because Safari knows in advance what should be blocked. So, with 1Blocker, sites load on average 2-5x faster. It’s important to note that not all ads can be blocked though. Some sites use techniques that make it impossible for us to block their ads using currently available features for Safari content blockers. SECURE BY DESIGN 1Blocker is secure and private. It doesn’t have access to webpages and doesn’t track you in any way. We believe that privacy is not for sale. That's why we don't have an "Acceptable Ads" program. We stay independent, and the only way we make money is through direct sales of 1Blocker in the App Store to you. ADVANCED CUSTOMIZATION 1Blocker is a highly customizable content blocker, providing the possibility to create powerful custom rules. It allows you to create custom rules that block any URL by providing a regular expression or hide any element by CSS. It also lets you block cookies. (Available in Premium) AVAILABLE ON ALL DEVICES 1Blocker is available for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Your preferences and custom rules are always in sync through iCloud no matter which device you're using. FEATURED IN THE PRESS 1Blocker has been featured in TechCrunch, Lifehacker, MacStories, Macworld, and many more. FEATURES AVAILABLE FOR FREE • The ability to enable one category (for example, Block Ads only) • Whitelisting sites right from the Safari extension • Whitelist synchronization between devices via iCloud FRIENDLY SUPPORT Send your feedback at @1BlockerApp on Twitter or via email. Your feedback is always very welcome and considered for the next release. We have been making 1Blocker since 2015. We believe it’s the best all-around package currently available in the App Store.

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.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: 1Blocker at Free against Overamped's $1.99. 1Blocker also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.9) and ratings volume (13K vs 19). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

1Blocker is free to download; Overamped costs $1.99 up front. 1Blocker sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Overamped sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

1Blocker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1Blocker has 13K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of 1Blocker's written reviews are positive against 71% of Overamped's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

1Blocker ships an update every 2 weeks, Overamped every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 7, 2026 respectively.
