PageCalm is a privacy-first Safari content blocker for iPhone. Use PageCalm to block common web ads in Safari, reduce trackers, and hide some cookie banners, pop-ups, and distracting page elements where possible. You can turn built-in categories on or off, allowlist websites by domain, and reload Safari rules from the app. PageCalm is designed to stay simple and local: - No account - No ads inside PageCalm - No advertising or analytics SDKs - No browsing history collection - No page content upload - Allowlist domains are stored locally - Content blocking rules are processed by Safari PageCalm works only in Safari through Apple's content blocker extension system. It does not provide VPN, DNS, system-wide, or in-app ad blocking. Some ads or site elements may still appear because websites change and Safari applies content blocker rules within Apple's supported extension system.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PageCalm at none against Web Cleaner's 2. PageCalm also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 5 days) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.5). Web Cleaner's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
