User Reviews for Wipr

This works very well!

I’ve been using many other content blockers; some that did more than I need, and some that don’t get updated regularly enough for sites not to break. I don’t feel the need to keep looking after using this app. In-app updates for the content filters twice a week - plus it focuses on removing ads and protecting my privacy.One thing I would like to see is some text indicating the last time the rules were successfully updated so I can be sure it’s working in the background.

Get this APP if you want real AD blocking!

I am incredibly pleased with this App. Only hiccup I encountered was trying to turn it on after downloading. It took some investigating but I figured it out. For an IPhone you may encounter this issue where toggle to turn on Wipr is greyed out. If so go to screen time settings and restrictions- content restrictions- and change internet content filter to unrestricted access. Then you will be able to turn on toggles to authorize Wipr.Afterwards you can go back into screen time settings and content restrictions and turn back on your desired content filter for browsing. Hope this is helpful. Final note, I was using Norton Ad Blocker prior to this and I found theirs annoying that it still displayed empty screen space where ads were but just didn’t show content. Seemed to limit loading speed of images. I love Wipr in comparison. Not wasting time loading empty squares on your screen. Browsing is much quicker. And I have terrible service reception where I live.

Love it on my Mac, just as good on iPhone

I’ve used several blockers and I like Wipr the best so far. Seems to block the stuff you want blocked without ruining site functionality. On macOS it isn’t as big a deal because you can reload a page without blockers, but on iOS it’s all or nothing when it comes to content blockers. I found I was turning off my other blocker too often so I could get various pieces of websites to work. I can whitelist, but I’d prefer to block as much as possible without compromising the usefulness of the site. Wipr seems to do that better than any other I’ve tried.

Get it and forget it!

This app is perfect if you want to clean up websites without doing any work! I just paid so it would keep working on my Mac after Apple changed the way Extensions work in Safari 13, without hesitation because I just want this to exist and continue to work (yeah, there's one for the Mac too!)! The developer's stance on privacy is very much appreciated as well! Buy it, use it, and if you ever doubt you needed it, disable the extension and surf the web and see how awful things are.

OUTSTANDING

This is literally the perfect ad blocker for me, almost like it was tailor-made.NO settings to fool with, NO interface, NO anything. Download it, turn it on, forget it.Wipr has done a fantastic job so far, and if I ever do encounter a website or page with a problem, I can temporarily disable Wipr or add the site to a whitelist.This is exactly how I want ad blocking to work. This little app should be $10-15, not $2!Congratulations to developer Giorgio, who also provides excellent and personal support via email.

The best ad blocker - won’t try to charge you every time

Pay once, and use easy list ad blockers that are updated frequently whenever new updates come out. Wipr is hands down the best out of all The ad blockers. Very minimal, set it and leave it. The best part (unlike other ad blockers) the developer is not implementing a forced subscription service for more money, instead you are given the opportunity to donate in a monthly bases

Works great, no complaints

I've been using Wipr for macOS for a while now, but a very outdated ad blocker for iOS (hasn't been updated in 3 years!) As such, it wasn't doing a stellar job these days. Having been happy with the macOS version of Wipr, I decided to double dip -- 2 bucks is a small price to pay for clean, simple web browsing. Very happy with the improvements over my outdated ad blocker. Works great, instantly, and doesn't seem to have any impact on performance whatsoever. Ads (nor their placeholders) even get a chance to render. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

It just works!

I just recently go an iPad and I’ve been trying my hand at using Safari instead of FireFox and Chrome. So far so good, but I realized that I’ve come to be very accustomed to the AdBlock’d life of browsing on my MacBook, so I started to look for a good AdBlocker. From checking the top apps in the App Store for Content Blocking, this appeared to the best one.So far it’s been working perfectly. I frequent blog sites like Gizmodo, and they have horrendous ads that expanding in the screen and take up like 1/3rd of the reading space. With this app, the entire ad doesn’t show up and all I see is what I want to see :)

Hidden Gem, Highly Recommended!

Update: New MAC version is excellent as well! Give it a try!The only thing I would like to see eventually is the ability to add rules or add an element hiding option for users to add their own rules. But overall my original review still applies, highly recommended!This is the most versatile and usable content blocker on the app store. It is fast and efficient without breaking the content. This one also does not leave any whitespace when blocking ads. I use Wipr on iOS as well as OS X. The developer is also very helpful and responsive. I would recommend this blocker to anyone who wants faster browsing, without breaking pages. 5 Stars

Work around for other apps

This app works very well in Safari (as stated in the info) but not at all in other apps. This work around has worked well for me. I use the Flipboard app (I like the app formatting better than the Safari Flipboard version) for reading news and nothing I’ve found defeats the 5 to 10 ads in each story I try to read. Ads are so intrusive it is difficult to determine what is an ad and what is the story without close scrutiny. TRY THIS. In the Flipboard app Find a story you want to read. Click on the box with the up arrow (at the bottom of the screen). On the bottom row of the pop up, select “Open in Safari”. Read the story ad free, then click the “Flipboard” in upper left corner of the screen. I assume this works in other apps but have not checked. Another hint. While you have that pop up open, click on the “...” option and move “Open in Safari” to the top so that it shows first in the pop up That way it will appear first when the pop up opens and you don’t have to scroll to find it.
