For me, the most important ones are probably:

  • Noir: dark mode on any website
  • Vinegar: ad block for YouTube + Pip
  • Vidimote: set the default playback speed for all videos (1.5x in my case)

I bet they’re great extensions but they’re not for iOS as far as I can tell.

Sorry! I created the reply on MacOS and provided MacOS links. I didn’t realize the iOS apps are different. But they do exist!

Thank you so much for posting this, Sponserblock was an instant buy :) Didn’t know there was such a thing on iOS

Wipr (Ad blocker). Set it and forget it! It’s not a resource hog either.

What makes you choose Wipr over AdGuard and Ghostery?

Wipr is a simple “set it and forget it” extension. While it’s not as flexible as AdGuard, it’s also a lot less complicated to use because it manages the filters automatically. But it does not have a way to modify the filters.

I’ve never tried Ghostery, but I should check it out.

adblockers for Safari work in two ways:

  • Setting a content blocker list of rules (fast, simple). Very likely they all share similar lists.
  • Dynamic JavaScript injection, this can block more complex ads.

AdGuard does both, which is why it’s good.

I’ve never used Wipr, but zero customization sounds awful.

Do you need a paid license to get both features, or is the free version enough?

Wipr does both too, and the lack of configurability isn’t as bad as you think it is. But if that’s a dealbreaker for you, then stay away from it.

Just tried Ghostery, and it misses a lot of ads.
