SwatBrowser: Browse in Peace
Stop scams, pop-ups & trackers
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Some websites don't just show ads. They try to take over your browser: fake "you have a virus" pop-ups that lock the screen, hijack redirects that carry you to scam pages, and overlays that trap your taps. SwatBrowser is built to stop them.
SwatBrowser reads how a page behaves and shuts down the hostile parts, without filter lists, accounts, or tracking. It works on every site.
STOPS THE TRAPS
- Fake virus and scam pop-ups that try to lock your browser
- Pop-ups, popunders, and hijack redirects that carry you off-site
- Clickjack overlays and fake-close gates that steal your taps
- Dimming screens and interstitials that hold a page hostage
SEE WHAT SITES DO
- X-Ray shows what each site tried to read about you: fingerprinting, trackers, and sensor access, kept on your device and never sent anywhere
- A plain-language report of exactly what was stopped, on this page and over time
FREEZE MODE
One tap freezes a misbehaving page and stops scripts, overlays, and motion instantly.
READER
Strip the clutter and read any article in a clean, adjustable view, light or dark.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- No block lists, no accounts, no ad identifiers, no tracking
- Randomized fingerprint and location controls
- Autocomplete from your own history and bookmarks, never network lookups
- Every protection runs on your device, inside the app
Tabs, favorites, downloads, and a security indicator, everything you expect from a browser, without everything you do not.
SUBSCRIPTION
Free for the first 24 hours, no sign-up. After that, SwatBrowser Pro unlocks the full shield.
- Monthly or Yearly auto-renewing subscription
- Lifetime, a one-time purchase that never renews
Separately, new subscribers get a 1-month free trial on Monthly or Yearly (not Lifetime). One free trial per Apple Account across both plans; the purchase screen shows whether you qualify, and the full price after the trial, before you buy.
Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.

Made by HBKL Labs.
SwatBrowser 1.2.1: the Safari content blocker is retired, and the app's own protection is now the focus. The shield keeps stopping scam pop-ups and hijack redirects on every page.
SwatBrowser may ask, once in a while, for an App Store rating after it has protected you on plenty of pages. You can turn these requests off in iPhone Settings.
