He's been gaming since the Atari 2600 days and still struggles to comprehend the fact he can play console quality titles on his pocket computer. Oliver also covers mobile gaming for iMore, with Apple Arcade a particular focus. Current expertise includes iOS, macOS, streaming services, and pretty much anything that has a battery or plugs into a wall. Since then he's seen the growth of the smartphone world, backed by iPhone, and new product categories come and go. Having grown up using PCs and spending far too much money on graphics card and flashy RAM, Oliver switched to the Mac with a G5 iMac and hasn't looked back. At iMore, Oliver is involved in daily news coverage and, not being short of opinions, has been known to 'explain' those thoughts in more detail, too. He has also been published in print for Macworld, including cover stories. ![]() If three Things (ToDo) app costs you about 99.- and you're willing to pay for that, this 15.- will probably be peanuts but I can understand if students think 15.- is a lot of money for a blocking script and getting a nice native workflow on both systems.Oliver Haslam has written about Apple and the wider technology business for more than a decade with bylines on How-To Geek, PC Mag, iDownloadBlog, and many more. I like to compare app prices to other apps on my system and how often I use them. I don't know if 15.- is fair, everybody should decide for themselves. Last the price went up after the holidays.īefore the regular price was 8 or 10.- for both apps - I bought it for 5.- during the holidays and now it's 15.- to get them both. It doesn't trouble me at all because I do not visit those sites on a daily base. I did noticed tho, when visiting some 'xxx adult' sites, it doesn't block those freaking ads, but you could add them to your own custom rules of course. When visiting my day to day sites I've never seen a site that didn't got blocked by default. It doesn't block everything online, there are probably free extensions like uBlock out there that will block everything you can imagine, they will even get rid of your mother in law, but hey, I don't visit the entire internet so if this means my 1Blocker-script will be much smaller in the browser and that way more lean and mean against other scripts that block anything out there, I'll take it. After installing the Mac app you probably have to restart you Mac before it works. Ive used 1blocker and am sure its easy to use but I feel that extensions and shortcuts on. Did I already mentioned it works via native iCloud? No 3rd party accounts or logins with any social media account to get stuff done. Without a Google Chrome, it used to block all youtube ads. This is how apps in general should work on all Apple's OS' so yeah, this is totally in my opinion the best experience for any AdBlocker system. Change a setting on your Mac and it also gets changed or updated on your iPhone and iPad. You'll get iOS + Mac apps from one single team/company. This is better than uBlock because of iCloud sync and the entire experience/workflow. They won't let some 'fair' ads sneak through on a regular base like AdBock does. It's premium, it cost you a few dollars you normally should donate via PayPal to open source projects like this but for some reason you never do because free stuff is free and free is free. Do know, this probably only works with Safari! The last one I haven't activated, I like it as is, straight out of the box, only activated the blocking extension and it does it thing for me. 1Blocker is non-invasive, stable, and comes as a quick option to block ads and get back to seeing just what matters. ![]() ![]() From what we’ve seen, both of those claims are true. One for blocking content and the other for adding your own rules to the blocking system. 1Blocker‘s App Store download page mentions that it has a lightning-fast native content blocking API and that it doesn’t slow Safari. The Mac app will give you two Safari extensions. Bought it of course because I was so curious about the Mac version and I have to say it works like you should expect from any other Mac + iOS app with iCloud sync. During the holiday season a couple of weeks ago they had a special sale so you could buy the in-app iOS purchase + Mac app for 5,- in total. I have tried the free iOS version for half a year or so on my iPad and it worked pretty solid. It's a fairly new app, so you'll probably won't find lot's of content/reviews about it online yet.
