Fixed my right click problems

"I couldn’t right click on safari in iOS. With this app I now can. It’s a life saver. And it’s free unlike those right click apps sold on the App Store"

App is terrible

Amazing

"Open source, no frills, free. Works great. Not all scripts work but I think that is just a limit of iOS. But overall it works great."

💡 Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions About Userscripts?

Q.Is Userscripts free, or does it require a subscription?

Userscripts 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 Userscripts 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 "Userscripts" and check the box to enable it. On iPhone/iPad (iOS): Go to iOS "Settings" -> tap "Safari" -> tap "Extensions" -> select "Userscripts" and toggle it ON.

Q.Are GreasyFork and GitHub scripts compatible with Safari on iOS and iPadOS?

Yes! Modern Safari extensions leverage WebKit Content World isolation, allowing full user script execution on mobile iOS Safari, turning your iPhone and iPad into desktop-grade workstations.

Q.Will running multiple user scripts cause web pages to stutter?

Not unless a script uses poorly constructed endless loops. Safari isolates scripts in separate execution contexts, preventing individual script crashes from bringing down the entire browser tab.

🍎 Safari Power User Tips

Maximize Your Productivity on macOS & iOS
