Wipr 2 4+

I’ve been using blocking app for decades. Over time, they start to become bloated and full of stuff not relevant. Others, like Ad Block Pro, turns out to be Russian owned. Also started having problems with websites not loading correctly or breaking (being unable to login or comment for example) so I started on the long hunt for a new blocker. I discover Wipr 1 and it’s worked like a charm from day one. I never even know it’s running, it just quietly does its thing. Never causing issues and
block those evil auto play videos. I even bought it again for my MacBook. Wipr 2 has new enhancements for blocking, and one purchase will allow you to install on iPhone AND you Mac! The best blocker just got better!

Wipr 1 has been far and away the best in class ad blocker for iOS for years — I’ve cycled through every other option and always come back to it. And Wipr 2? Well, it keeps everything awesome about Wipr 1 — reliability, simplicity, and ease of use — while adding some seriously awesome new perks and features. If you’re still reading, stop reading and start downloading!

This product doesn’t appear to offer any improvement over the first one. It fails to deal with over-the-top advertising “ads served by Google”. Google advertising is pervasive and awfully intrusive. Wrote an informative report to the developer including an example of a Sky News website. Developer wasn’ t sufficiently interested to read the report, apparently, and blew me off - albeit politely. This app isn’t cheap but if it does its job then great. But it doesn’t offer better functionality over freeware apps or built in browser features. As long as the developer gets (her?) $$ that’s all that really matters it seems. I don’t think this developer deserves a financial reward for this app.
