Mostly perfect

"This adblocker does everything I hoped it would do - it filters out the ads YouTube wants to show me. If you want to use the internet without having an ad shoved down your throat every two seconds, this is well worth the price. My only complaint is that tonight, the videos I want to watch are being sped up tremendously. That's annoying but I'm sure it'll get patched soon like the other bugs."

💡 Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions About AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari?

Q.Is AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari free, or does it require a subscription?

AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari is 100% free to download on the Apple App Store without predatory weekly subscription traps. You can install and use it across your Mac and iPhone Safari browsers.

Q.How do I enable AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari in macOS and iOS Safari?

On Mac (macOS): After downloading from the Mac App Store, open the application once, then launch Safari -> click "Settings" (or Preferences) in the menu bar -> select the "Extensions" tab -> locate "AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari" and check the box to enable it. On iPhone/iPad (iOS): Go to iOS "Settings" -> tap "Safari" -> tap "Extensions" -> select "AdGuard Ad Blocker for Safari" and toggle it ON.

Q.Why is Safari ad-blocking much faster and lighter than Google Chrome?

Chrome extensions traditionally execute heavy JavaScript inside every web page to inspect and block URLs on the fly. Safari uses native compiled JSON rule lists processed directly by Apple WebKit engine in C++, preventing ads from even starting to download without executing third-party code in your tabs.

Q.Does this extension work in Safari Private Browsing mode?

Yes! On macOS Sonoma / iOS 17 and later, go to Safari Settings -> Extensions, and ensure "Allow in Private Browsing" is checked. This ensures the same clean and ad-free experience while safeguarding your incognito sessions.
