Tired of clicking "Accept" just to make cookie popups go away? CookieZap does it for you automatically. CookieZap is a Safari extension that detects cookie consent popups and clicks "Reject" or "Necessary Only" buttons on your behalf. Unlike other tools that just hide banners with CSS, CookieZap actually rejects cookies, giving you real privacy protection. SMART AUTO-REJECT CookieZap intelligently finds and clicks "Reject All", "Decline", or "Necessary Only" buttons on cookie consent popups. It works with all major consent management platforms including OneTrust, Cookiebot, Quantcast, and dozens more. THREE BLOCKING MODES - Smart Reject: Finds and clicks reject buttons automatically - Hide Only: Hides popups with CSS without interacting - Block All: Blocks cookie-related network requests entirely REAL-TIME DASHBOARD See exactly how many popups you have zapped. Track today's count, total blocked, and success rate. Watch your numbers grow as you browse. WHITELIST CONTROL Need to see cookie popups on a specific site? Add it to your whitelist and CookieZap will skip it. SAFARI TOOLBAR POPUP Quickly check protection status, pause blocking, or whitelist the current site right from Safari's toolbar. ZERO CONFIGURATION Install the extension, enable it in Safari settings, and you are done. No accounts, no sign-ups, no complicated setup. CookieZap works immediately. PRIVACY FIRST CookieZap runs entirely on your device. No data is collected, no servers are contacted, no tracking. Your browsing stays private. One-time purchase. No subscription. No ads. No data collection. Just clean, uninterrupted browsing.

Redirector gives you precise control over where Safari takes you. Create local redirect rules that match URLs using regular expressions and send them to a different destination. Redirect modern sites to preferred versions, replace domains, preserve paths with capture groups, or build redirects for your own workflows. Features: • Regular expression URL matching • Capture-group substitutions • Per-rule source and destination domains • Rule ordering and stop processing • Built-in URL testing and previews • Automatic redirect-loop protection • Enable, disable, edit, and delete rules at any time • Site access requested only for domains used by enabled rules Redirector has no accounts, analytics, or external servers. Rules stay on your device and are processed locally by Safari. Rules are stored separately on each device and do not currently sync through iCloud.
