About

YT Rec Block is a simple Safari extension for iPhone and iPad that helps make YouTube less distracting. Now we block FaceBook and LinkedIn too! When enabled for youtube.com in Safari, it hides recommendation-heavy areas such as the home feed, related videos, end screens, and Shorts recommendation shelves. You can still use YouTube normally: search, subscriptions, channels, playlists, and direct video links continue to work. The extension runs locally in Safari and does not require an account. It does not collect, sell, or send your browsing activity to the developer. Important: YT Rec Block works on youtube.com in Safari. It does not change the YouTube app.

💡 Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions About YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker?

Q.Is YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker free, or does it require a subscription?

YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker is available as an honest One-Time Purchase for $1.99. Buy once to unlock full lifetime access, completely avoiding recurring subscription charges.

Q.How do I enable YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker 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 "YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker" and check the box to enable it. On iPhone/iPad (iOS): Go to iOS "Settings" -> tap "Safari" -> tap "Extensions" -> select "YouTube, FB, LinkedIn Blocker" 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.
