1Blocker - Ad Blocker

This app is great. Only one question; I would like to change the settings, and don’t understand how.

After having used different blockers, I settled for 1Blocker and purchased Premium for life. I use it for years now and it blocks extremely well (very rarely pass things through) and without effort besides periodic updating.
I particularly like YT add blocking. What a unspeakable relief!

I don’t know exactly what it is etc. But I do hope that isn’t a good app. It seems to be reliable, especially in combination with the recommendation from The NY Times. Hope that the plus version isnt a waste of money.

Gebruik het al 2 jaar en doet wat het moet doen. Ik gebruik het op macOS en iOS. Heel incidenteel een keer een website die het niet (goed) doet, 1Blocker even pauzeren en daarna weer aanzetten ;-) Abonnement vind ik prima en betaalbaar, ontwikkelaar moet ook zijn brood verdienen!

Does nothing useful until you pay monthly. If I'm not going to pay Y to remove adverts, how likely am I to pay 1 for removing adverts?

Please use a different adblocker. It used to be decent, but the last year or so it was breaking too many websites and causing trouble. When using a different browser with a different adblocker these pages would load just fine. Now I'm using a different adblocker and everyting works just fine.

It does a decent job. The webpages load slower, I am frequently reloading the site without the Contenet Blockers. And once a day, mostly in the afternoons or after hybernating, the fans are going all out to cool the CPU. Because of these annoyances, I also installed an alternative browser for those pages heavy on ads.

It is enabled in the Safari settings, works great in YouTube but not on websites.

Bought this app for the tracker blocking and ad blocking and it works amazing!
My issues / annoyensis:
- Going from the free trail to a life time subscription was a bit wired as i got a notification about my free trail expering while i already bougth the live time subscription.
- Opening the App on MacOS and iOS seems extreemly slow
- To add a site to the allowlist or block sites i need to open the app and it seems like i cannot do this from the extension popup in the browser.

Wonderfull, blocking both tracking and stuff on browser and network level!
However, a request: could you add an option to configure my own dns servers?

Pinterest has ads that cover the page, ads that you can’t click away. 1 Block is not helping.

Something important has changed since my last review. Since iOS allows for safari extensions, adblockers can be much more effective.
I’ve tried a couple of adblockers and chose this one.
This adblocker offers some advanced features like picking individual elements. Also the custom block and allowlists are very effective and easy to use.
Why not 5 stars? Since safari on iOS only until recently supports blocking scripts, the adblocking isn’t yet on the same level as a “desktop” adblocker like ublock origin. To get a similar experience you’ll need to buy some other extensions which I’m not sure I’m allowed to name in a review.

BECAREFUL!
If you try the 2 week trial and decide not to continue, it's impossible to unsubscribe. Only options to continue your subscription. Option to cancel is nowhere to be found.
SCAMMERS!

Met 1Blocker houd je bijna alle ongewenste reclame op het web tegen. Wellicht nog belangrijker, ook de trackers worden geblokkeerd, zelfs in apps dankzij de firewall. Trackers volgen je surfgedrag, verrichten allerlei aparte metingen en verzamelen intieme details. Deze worden gecombineerd tot een onthullend persoonlijk profiel van je om te verhandelen aan datapooiers.
Daarnaast zijn er allerlei instellingen in de app te maken, waardoor je veel kunt afregelen op je persoonlijke voorkeuren. Al in al maakt dit 1Blocker tot een veelzijdige en krachtige oplossing om je privacy te helpen beschermen op het hedendaagse web.
Of je nou een iPhone, iPad of een Mac gebruikt, mijn advies is om 1Blocker aan te schaffen. De app is waarschijnlijk een van de meest geavanceerde in zijn klasse en krijgt regelmatig updates.

The app does what it’s supposed to do.
But still the battery drainage is very big.
About 40% of the daily battery power is being used by 1Blocker in ‘Background activity’.
This is unacceptable.

The program blocks a lot of cookies, trackers and other ****. - - - Thanks for this amazing update ツ. Now the app is even more a MUST-HAVE. - - - • However I do get this burning questions: Can we expect a firewall for the Mac too ? And (Not really important) How about “legitimate interest” ? , I assume this is blocked too ? Thanks in advance, Vince

Sorry to tell, but after putting the settings as advised, YouTube keeps spamming me with a boat load of advertisements every 5 minutes.

I purchased the app from this developer only to have it disabled so that he can sell it again under a different name. This app should be removed by Apple for scamming people
There is some BS explanation that they need regular support yet they ARE selling a lifetimesubscription which is exactly what I paid for.
