Safari blocked third-party cookies. So trackers moved into first-party cookies — set right on the sites you visit, where Safari won't touch them. Cookie Editor shows you who's still watching, and hands you the controls. WHO'S TRACKING YOU • Names the trackers behind the gibberish — _ga is Google Analytics, _fbp is Meta Pixel — in plain language • Sorts every cookie into Ads, Analytics, Functional and Essential • Rates any site A to F with a shareable privacy score • Flags long-lived cookies built to outlive Safari's tracking protection BEFORE / AFTER CONSENT • Snapshot a site's cookies, accept the banner, then compare — see exactly what appeared • Catches advertising cookies set before you ever answered the banner — see it and judge for yourself SEES WHAT OTHER EDITORS CAN'T • Reads cookies through Safari's native API — including HttpOnly cookies that JavaScript-based editors simply can't see • Exact expiry dates and real lifetimes, plus Secure, HttpOnly and SameSite flags A FULL COOKIE EDITOR — FREE • View, edit, add and delete any cookie • Search and filter: All, Trackers, or Site • Delete All, then re-checked against Safari so you know what the site instantly recreated • No limits. No ads. IMPORT, EXPORT & SESSIONS — PRO • Import and export as JSON or cookies.txt (works with curl, wget and yt-dlp) • From the clipboard, from Files, or through the share sheet • Named snapshots — save a session, restore it later, or move it between your own iPhone, iPad and Mac over iCloud • One-tap cleanup: clear every tracker, or every cookie from a single company • Developer audit reports for consent and flag checks PRIVATE BY DESIGN • All tracker matching happens on your device. Nothing is ever uploaded. • No account. No ads. We don't track you. • Tested and updated for every major iOS and macOS release Cookie Editor Pro unlocks import, export, snapshots and one-tap cleanup — available as a subscription with a 3-day free trial, or a single one-time purchase. The full cookie editor is free, forever.
