StopTheScript is a Safari extension for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that stops all JavaScript on your selected websites. StopTheScript is the only Safari extension that stops inline JavaScript on the web page as well as externally loaded JavaScript. This is in contrast to Safari content blockers, which can only block external JavaScript, not inline JavaScript. StopTheScript is made by indie developer Jeff Johnson. If you need support, please email me at stopthescript@underpassapp.com or read the support site at https://underpassapp.com/StopTheScript/support.html

Unclear how to disable from within safari

Once JavaScript has been disabled on a site, it's unclear how to disable this extension without digging through the settings app. Is there a better way to toggle it off?

Edit rules in app

Would it be possible to allow editing rules within the application? There is an application named ‘Pro Script’ on the AppStore that allows this. It would be much easier to be able to do that. As well as import external rules. Lastly, ‘Pro Script’ allows blocking document, image, style-sheet, script, font, raw, svg-document, media, pop up, ping, fetch, web socket, and ‘other’. It would be awesome if we were able to have finer control over this. Thank you for your work!

Fantastic Value and Function

It’s great to see a highly useful app that still offers a one-time purchase option. This app fixes websites that would continuously crash in iOS (regardless of browser), even when I had my ad blocker turned off. Plus it disables most anti-ad-blocking features of websites. Note that using this app is a bit counterintuitive. By default it’s OFF on websites; you turn it on as needed on each site.

Freedom from invasive and aggressive internet activity

Stop the script combined with stop the madness is the only solution on iPhone that can deal with todays emerging cybersecurity threats within Safari. Run it full time, if it blocks a site completely ie most Meta products maybe you should not be using those sites in the first place.

• For clarity, reworded “Enable HTML noscript elements” to “Show HTML noscript elements” • Added a note in the extension popup window that website permissions are managed in Safari Settings
