iOS has a lot of benefits when it comes to privacy. However, some options are only found in third party apps, such as advanced browser ad blocking services. Today, the suggestion of free app is the Ad blocker - Remove Ads, which usually costs $5.99


TL;DR

  • The App is exclusive to iOS devices and can be used on iPhones and iPads.
  • The normal price of the app is $5.99.
  • Ad blocker - Remove Ads contains no ads or in-app purchases.

The basic function of an ad blocker is to free you from seeing annoying and intrusive pop-up ads, but even more important is to prevent third parties from tracking your movements when browsing the internet. This is where Ad blocker - Remove Ads comes in, an ad blocker developed for Safari.

Why is Ad Blocker worth downloading?

Once downloaded, Ad Blocker can be used in an integrated way with the Safari browser on iPhone. So, besides ads and pop-up banners, Ad Blocker also allows you to block trackers, miners, unnecessary features and even content sharing buttons on social networks.

The most interesting thing about this software is that, apart from its privacy, it makes browsing more efficient since it doesn't allow loading ads, decreasing a bit of data usage. Among the main features we also find the possibility of adding exceptions and prohibitions through filters.

I have 15 years of experience reviewing smartphones and wearables, blending tech know-how with a real love for innovation. I've led popular tech sites like AndroidPIT and Canaltech in Brazil, and now I share my insights with audiences around the globe—including in the US, Germany, France, Spain, and Brazil—through honest, hands-on reviews. Recently, I've shifted my focus toward digital health, with a keen eye on gender equality and closing the gender data gap. I'm passionate about using simple, clear storytelling to give women a stronger voice in both tech and health. Whether I'm testing the latest gadgets or exploring new trends in digital health, I always aim to break things down in a way that's easy to understand. On a personal note, I'm an active runner—I completed the Berlin Marathon in 2024—and I'm gearing up for a long bike trip from Germany to Austria in just four days in 2025.
