Description

1Blocker lets you block obtrusive ads, sneaky trackers, and annoying elements on sites. With 1Blocker, you’re safe online and nothing will distract you from enjoying sites.

1Blocker is very easy to use — just flip a couple of switches to start blocking ads and trackers. The app will automatically receive cloud updates to the built-in filters silently, so you don’t need to do anything. It’s as simple as setting and forgetting.

1Blocker is a fully native app designed to extend Safari naturally. It’s lightweight and doesn’t drain your battery by taking up your device’s resources.

The blocking itself is super fast because Safari does it itself. We only provide filters to Safari and don’t modify webpages in any way. This vastly improves efficiency because Safari knows in advance what should be blocked. So, with 1Blocker, sites load on average 2-5x faster.

It’s important to note that not all ads can be blocked though. Some sites use techniques that make it impossible for us to block their ads using currently available features for Safari content blockers.

SECURE BY DESIGN

1Blocker is secure and private. It doesn’t have access to webpages and doesn’t track you in any way.

We believe that privacy is not for sale. That's why we don't have an "Acceptable Ads" program. We stay independent, and the only way we make money is through direct sales of 1Blocker in the App Store to you.

ADVANCED CUSTOMIZATION

1Blocker is a highly customizable content blocker, providing the possibility to create powerful custom rules. It allows you to create custom rules that block any URL by providing a regular expression or hide any element by CSS. It also lets you block cookies. (Available in Premium)

AVAILABLE ON ALL DEVICES

1Blocker is available for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Your preferences and custom rules are always in sync through iCloud no matter which device you're using.

FEATURED IN THE PRESS

1Blocker has been featured in TechCrunch, Lifehacker, MacStories, Macworld, and many more.

FEATURES AVAILABLE FOR FREE

• The ability to enable one category (for example, Block Trackers only)
• Whitelisting sites right from the Safari extension
• Whitelist synchronization between devices via iCloud
• The possibility to see blocked resources on a site

FRIENDLY SUPPORT

In-App tracking prevention

I initially downloaded this app to block ads and learned after about the in-app tracking blocker. This will prevent first party app tracking. You really have no idea of how muck tracking is going on until you turn on the feature and check the logs. The free version will do a great job at blocking ads. The premium features work extremely well and have been worth the money for me. The app is really impressive. If you value your privacy it is worth looking in detail at what this app can do for you.

Disappointed. A long time user, now uninstalling.

I've been using this extension for at least the last couple of years. It's been unobtrusive and generally a 'nice to have' with the odd occasion where it would cause a page to not behave as expected, but was easily turned off temporarily. The newest update now requires you to pay a premium subscription for any more than one category (e.g. you can block ads or you can block trackers, but unless you pay the subscription you can't do both). This isn't a subscription for new features that weren't available before, this is a subscription for features that were included in the previous version. This isn't a 'need to have' as there are a number of other services out there that offer the same features, some of which are still completely free. So, while the extension does what it says, it has moved to a subscription model with no added benefit to the user. Because of this, I'll now be uninstalling and looking elsewhere.

Hello, thank you for making us aware of the situation. This is definitely not the way the app should work for you.
We strived to avoid any negative impact on the existing customers, and the new app still offers the same conditions for you. You should have access to multiple blocking categories, custom rules, iCloud Sync, etc. at no extra cost. The rules are still updated with every 1Blocker release to the App Store, just like it was before.

The app is supposed to sync your previous purchase automatically. However, if it doesn't let you turn on multiple categories, please, reinstall it and use the Restore Purchase button in the Settings > Premium section.

If you still have any questions, please, let us know via any of the feedback buttons available in the app or our email (support@1blocker.com).
We will meet you there and guide you through them!

Good

While I’m convinced ublock origin and privacy badger are better options, it is 1Blocker that is available on iOS and it does a decent job. The only thing stopping me from paying is the fact that the purchase will be tied to one Apple ID. I use multiple ids and given that Apple is starting to relax the restriction for outside payment platforms and stuff I hope it becomes a reality soon I could use email and password to sign in to the premium version. As an effort to counter account abusing, there could be a limit to the number of devices with 1Blocker actively in use under one account. Just a thought
