Purify: Block Ads and Tracking

I’ve seen people go on the same sites as me and & the comparison is very clear, they are getting way more ads then I do so I can def say this app works well and it’s doing its job when it comes to banner ads and such. My only criticism is that I wish it did better was curbing pop up ads or preventing them all together. Trying to watch a video but having to go through 5 pop up ad pages first can be annoying. Also the app has improved a lot since I last reviewed it & the developers were very quick to reach out to me.

I was so sick of all the pop ups on my iphone (6plus up to date) every time I go anywhere to read the news or try to read anything on Safari. I am having to shut down pop ups constantly so trying to get one paragraph read is impossible. It has come to the point that any site that immediately interrupts me with stupid pop ups or any videos that are interrupted to present ads are shut down immediately. Can’t believe people think this is acceptable. Getting to the point where I hate trying to use the Internet on a mobile phone. It’s ridiculous. So I was hoping after reading the reviews that this application would curb that and I don’t see where it has. And yes I have hit all the settings as indicated in their instructions. Just not working.

Best $1.99 app in the store. KILLS those painfully annoying ads such as found in news articles. Web pages load so much faster cause you don’t have to wait for the gazillion ads to fill your screen. Also, in my case, certain websites, chocked full of ads, caused the back of my iPhone to get very warm. I assume that had something to do with how power was being used/drawing from my battery (due to ads loading). Whatever the reason, since installing Purify, that happens no more. We spend 5 bucks on coffee that’s gone in 30 minutes. Two bucks on this app will last a lot longer.

After finding the app’s official website and reading through the functionality and list of features, not once does it mention that this the app only supports Safari. Hell, it doesn’t even vaguely allude to it. After reading all the nice features and what I gave the app description a quick glance and then pulled the trigger. It’s only if you read all the down at the bottom of the App Store description does it finally mention this highly critical fact that Purify “is a content blocker for Safari” Chris, If you aren’t going to list some kind of “system requirements”-esque list somewhere in your description where you mention you have to use Safari, you really need to re-word things at the very beginning of your descriptions both on the site and on the App Store to make this more clear.

I’ve been using this app for a couple of years now and I love everything about it. Its very simple to use and understand . Even the customer service is awesome, early on right after I downloaded it I had a few questions about it so I contacted them by email and they were extremely prompt about getting back to me I think it was only a matter of about 3 or 4 minuets before I had a reply. They stayed on the phone with me for a good 20 minuets answering my questions and didn’t end the call until they were confident that I fully understood everything about the app.
