• Available on all your devices, on iOS, iPad and macOS • When visiting a website, a person usually leaves a lot of information about himself. And without any measures on the part of the site owner, these personal data may be stolen. If you do not want something of the sort to happen, consider accessing all sites via the HTTPS technology. HTTPS Only is a Safari extension that protects your browsing activity by automatically enabling the HTTPS protocol on all websites that you visit. By loading the HTTPS version of websites into your browser, all your traffic will be encrypted, reliable and surveillance free. Although major websites already encrypt the traffic by using HTTPS, it’s not guaranteed that you use this technology - sometimes is not active by default or some embedded assets are loaded through the default and unencrypted HTTP connections. Also, clicking links can redirect you to the insecure versions of sites. Actually more than 75% of websites out there still rely on unencrypted HTTP communications. The HTTPS Only extension will fix these problems by rewriting all your requests from HTTP to HTTPS. It will also make sure that the assets from the visited websites (images, styles, scripts or ads) are transferred via the safe HTTPS and no one can steal your cookies, passwords, sessions or private data. • What is the HTTPS protocol and why should you care? • Did you know that browsing the web in a coffee shop, airport or hotel with free internet access can be dangerous? Even your own home or company internet connection is not safe. This is because the common HTTP web traffic can be intercepted in clear text, inspected and even modified by anyone. HTTPS has significantly more secure since this protocol will encrypt your communications. • The benefits of the HTTPS protocol and why should you use it? • - Faster page loading: data sent over HTTPS loads faster since the new HTTP/2 protocol is available in Safari only on encrypted communications - Confidentiality: no one can read your content, passwords or messages - Integrity: your traffic cannot be modified - for example, no key-loggers can be injected - Authentication: your site cannot be routed to a clone without you knowing it • Is this a VPN service? • No, this extension is not a VPN service, but is very efficient and safe as a VPN. This extension will make sure you are using only HTTPS in your surfing and the usage of HTTPS will make your traffic encrypted, reliable and surveillance free. Also, HTTPS is much faster than a VPN and can protect you even if the VPN is logging your activity. • Support • We read your support emails every day, day by day. Write with confidence any question, feedback or complaint and you will receive an answer in a very short period of time.

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.
