Weblock allows you to control how your device fetches online content. Easily manage PAC (Proxy Auto-Config) script and route different connections through different proxy servers. Weblock can make your device download ads (banners and popups), stats and user tracking, scripts or images through a proxy server you pick. It also allows you to use a different proxy for specific websites, like Facebook, Twitter, Google+, social widgets from websites. You can even define your own content filters. With Weblock you can control proxy for basically any network resource! This way you can choose not to reveal your real IP to different services, limit advanced ad targeting and protect your privacy.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: You're responsible for selecting a proxy server that allows you to download content you wish to download. We DO NOT provide a proxy service. Using a bad proxy server (like 127.0.0.1:8021) might result in some resources being blocked. You can control your proxy settings selectively with Weblock. Contact our support if you need help choosing right proxy server or setting up Weblock on your device.

Here are some situations in which Weblock might come in handy:
• Fetch ads through a proxy server you choose. Protect your privacy and prevent ad servers from knowing your real IP address and tracking you.
• Disable majority of ads on websites you visit on your iOS device! Weblock supports all major web browsers: Safari, Chrome, Mercury and others (browsers redirecting web traffic through third-party servers like Puffin Browser or Opera Mini are not be supported).
• Easily remove all native Facebook widgets and plugins (Like buttons, comments, etc.) on sites you visit - simply disable Facebook plugins in Weblock! Do the same for Twitter, Google+ and other social media.
• Stop annoying Tapatalk popups, nagging you to download forum browsing app on every visit.
• Take control of someone else's device - you can preconfigure any iOS device to control it with your Weblock app. Block or redirect any content, anytime, directly from your own device.
• Your predefined filters and custom rules can be synced between all your iOS devices using iCloud.
• If you wish to block something else, you can create your own rules and filters. You can block any URL (with regular expressions), domain or IP address. Don't know how? Let us know - we're here for you.
• You can also use Weblock's redirect feature to emulate '/etc/hosts' entries for HTTP and HTTPS traffic. This might be useful for web and app developers to pin domains to different IP addresses.

I have used and loved this app for many years now. It is the best thing on my iPad. Never have any problems or ads. Hardly notice the app except to very occasionally reset the filters as one or two may be inactive probably new ones. I honestly don’t know how people live with ads in their apps or banners blocking things. I can’t remember seeing any intrusions to my peace on my iPad in a very long time and am so happy I found this superb blocker. Thank you developers it is honestly app perfection and I try to spread the word whenever possible.

Always perfect!

Sometimes i get annoying ads and then remember I have this app. After setting it up I immediately love having cluttered pages cleared of ads.

I can continue to use my browser of choice because of the way this app sets up a VPN profile.

Highly recommended!

0 stars!

This app no longer works as it used to. In that case, those who are dissatisfied should be given a refund as the product does not perform as if promised. Lousy.
Addendum: after numerous messages to contact developers about the ineffectiveness of this app, all that I received was the same message each time. I wouldn’t even give it one star. Lift your game and get your app working for your customers.

I became sick of a lack of action from this company so I deleted the app and I have finally found an excellent app that actually does what it claims - that is, it blocks ads!

Developer Response ,
