Adblocker Zero removes ads and trackers from Safari. No account, no setup, nothing to configure — turn it on once and pages immediately load cleaner, faster and more private. EASY TO TURN ON A friendly welcome screen walks you through enabling the extension in Safari and confirms when everything is working — you're done in about a minute. WHAT IT BLOCKS • Banner ads, pop-ups, sticky overlays and sponsored clutter • Ad and tracker requests — stopped before they ever load • Trackers that follow you from site to site • Includes defenses against anti-adblock scripts WHY ADBLOCKER ZERO • Truly lightweight: blocking runs on Safari's built-in engine, so there is no heavy background process slowing you down • Private by design: no account, no telemetry, no data collection — your browsing history never leaves your device • Free and open source (MIT license) • Available in 52 languages EVERYDAY CONTROLS • One switch to pause blocking everywhere • A per-site switch to trust sites you want to support • Filter lists stay up to date automatically FOR POWER USERS • "My filters": add your own rules in EasyList-compatible syntax • Manage your trusted-sites list • Built on proven, community-maintained filter lists: EasyList, EasyPrivacy, Peter Lowe's list and more PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED Safari will warn that the extension can "read and alter webpages" — that's Apple's standard wording, shown for every ad blocker. Adblocker Zero uses that access for exactly one thing: blocking ad and tracker requests and hiding ad elements on the page. It collects nothing and sends nothing; the only network requests it makes are the downloads of the public filter lists. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
