Description
Wipr 2 is out now!
Wipr blocks all ads, trackers, cryptocurrency miners, EU cookie and GDPR notices, and other annoyances, so you can focus on the content that matters to you while using Safari.
• Time, Data, and Battery Saver
Web pages load a lot faster with Wipr, and much less needs to be downloaded. Your battery will love this.
• Private
Wipr prevents countless trackers from invading your privacy. Wipr itself cannot, nor wants to, know what you do on the web.
• Fast
By using a new technology called Content Blocking Extensions, Wipr can do its job without slowing down Safari at all.
• Up-to-date
Wipr's blocklist is updated twice a week to keep up with the ever-changing web.
• Honest
No one can pay to unblock ads. There are no "acceptable ads". Wipr only answers to you.
• Global
Wipr will use an enhanced blocklist for Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Thai, and Vietnamese speakers.
• Smart
You can set up Wipr in seconds, and it will update automatically in the background to block future annoyances. There is no configuration.
This app was built with love and patience. I hope you'll enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed designing and building it.
Wipr is also available for your iPhone or iPad, look for it in the App Store!
Enjoy a cleaner web!

Ratings and Reviews
Not sure if this catches everything
I can still see some ads when browsing. The ones which come to mind are ads on Twitch, similarly i see promoted tweets on twitter.
Using UBlock i dont see either of these things so i think there is still a way to go with Wipr considering this is a paid app.
Great, but needs an on/off indicator / switch in the toolbar
I like Wipr, it works well, but I never know whether I've turned it on or off for a site, so I spend mental energy figuring out whether the site is broken before I remember to check "Settings for <site>"
So it needs at the least an indicator in the toolbar to be something I really value. Otherwise I flip-flop between this and ABP (never both at the same time)
Works well after setup hiccup
The initial setup process wasn't very clear. Turns out you have to run the app, click "Get Rid of Ads and Trackers" and then make sure the Wipr Safari Extension(s) are enabled (off by default for me). So could do with an improved on-boarding experience.
After that works as expected and no issue so far. So a big thumbs up :-)
