Description
Rawr! BlockBear is a really simple and ferocious adblocking app that allows you to browse the web ad-free and reclaim valuable screen space.
BlockBear:
• Blocks ads (popups, text ads, banners) and removes website clutter
• Loads many websites 3-5x faster saving time and bandwidth
• Protects your privacy from widespread online tracking (cookies, beacons, scripts, etc)
• Lets you choose to block any combination of ads, online tracking and social buttons with a simple switch
• Helps you to conveniently whitelist your favourite websites from within Safari using the BlockBear Safari extension
• Includes 100% more bears than competing ad blockers
Yeah, you could download another adblocker… but then you wouldn’t have a bear.
What’s New
Version 1.3.1
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
• Fixed an embearassing bug that caused BlockBear to ask you to download block list updates, even when none were available.
Ratings and Reviews
One of the best ad blocker. But as of now it’s getting unusable.
This is one of the best adblocker I have ever used. But as of 2022 many of the sites I frequently visit just blocks their content if you use an adblocker. So it becomes an back an forth to turn on and turn off adblocker every day. Maybe the developers can add an widget for quick toggle.
Easy to use and does what i expect it to!
I love the products that the Tunnelbear folks make and this is no exception. It shows that they put effort into making this app easy AND fun to use. And it does what we expect it to. No awkward UX.
I love your work folks, if you’re reading this. Keep up the good work!
Best for Safari
This is one of the lightest, quickest and easy to use ad blocker. Timely updates keeps it dealing with new ways of tracking and making the experience clutter and ad free. Keep up the good work devs!
