Wipr blocks ads, popups, trackers, cookie warnings, and other nasty things that make the web slow and ugly.
Websites in Safari will look clean, load fast, and stop invisibly tracking you. You’ll notice significant improvements to your battery life and data usage. Setup is a snap.
Wipr’s blocklist…
I use KaBlock and Hush Nag Blocker. Both apps are availiable for macOS as well as for iOS. They are made to work with Safari. So far I haven’t had any issues with ads, even when watching Youtube videos. They are free. I would give them a try first. If they don’t work for you, you always can purchase wipr later.
Which one do you like better? I try not to overload my phone content blockers because it’s hard to troubleshoot if a site breaks. I see Hush Nag claims they are FOSS so I’m leaning towards it.
I discovered KaBlock first, and it did its job. I did not test it with Youtube tho. A couple of weeks ago someone mentioned Hush Nag Blocker and I installed it as well. I think they complete each other, as Hush makes Cookie-Banners disappear, which KaBlock doesn’t. Both KaBlock and Hush seem to block ads from Youtube - I haven’t experienced ads on smartphone so far (I skipped into maybe 3 to 5 videos on it in the last couple of weeks, as I have a data plan that isn’t tailored for video streaming).
I’m unfamiliar with Wipr is it worth $6 for the new one or just pay $2 for the original?
