But since 1blocker X has multiple extensions this is now possible to do, thus making the app more flexible.ĭevelopers have said that 1blocker X provides a better performance than its predecessor. It’s not possible with the previous version of the app because it only had one extension. What is a partial whitelist? Let’s say, you open a site and want to keep blocking trackers but unblock ads and comments on that site.
Custom Rulesġblocker X team has promised another great feature coming to the app in the future, it is called partial whitelist. This is a great way of extending default lists in 1Blocker. That means you can import to 1Blocker custom third-party lists of rules made by other people on the Internet. With 1Blocker X users can define up to 50,000 custom rules. The third section of 1Blocker X is ‘Custom,’ which are user-defined rules that can be set on a site-by-site basis to whitelist sites, block sites, block cookies, hide page elements, and force sites to load using https only.
Since it is available only in two countries right now, it wouldn’t make much of a difference for most users. It is currently limited to Russia and Germany, but the 1Blocker team says more countries are coming in the future.These rules improve ad blocking experience for users in listed countries. These are rules designed to block content targeted at sites in a particular country. That’s more than twice the number of rules as 1blocker legacy with room to grow to 350,000 rules in the future.ġBlocker X introduces a new set of blockers that legacy version didn’t have, which is regional blockers. Group of blockers that removes ads from most sites.īlocks sites from tracking you across the web.īlocks social media widgets, cookie notices, share bars, crypto-miners, etc.īlock comments on many popular sites where they aren’t the primary focus. The blockers you activate are synced to all your iOS devices using iCloud Safari settingsġBlocker X includes about 120,000 rules organized in the following categories: Once enabled, you can turn each of the 7 sets of rules or individual rules on and off from within 1Blocker X. In Safari’s settings, there’s a Content Blockers section where you can turn on 1Blocker X’s 7 blockers. To get going, you have to enable 1Blocker’s content blockers by visiting the Settings app.
This required rewriting the app to handle new extensions and thats why there is a new app called 1blocker X and that also is the reason why this is a paid upgrade. To get over the limit of 50,000 blocking rules in the app, 1blocker team came up with the idea of creating multiple extensions within safari that independently manage blocking. Developers of 1blocker wanted to get over that limit of 50,000 rules and block more unwanted content this lead to the development of 1blocker X that is replacing the old 1blocker app. That’s a lot of rules, but they are not enough considering the amount of spam on the internet.
#1blocker x full
I paid for its IAP to unlock the full app, it had about 50,000 rules, as iOS limits the number of blocking rules that can be implemented by an app to 50,000. I have been a user of 1blocker for iOS, for about 2 years.
