Banish - Block 'Open in App'

Hide annoying popups in Safari

Published by: Big Pineapple

Description

BANISH. The #1 Safari Extension to block annoying 'Open in App' popups & other dark patterns on the web.
“Banish does one thing and does it well: it nukes dickpanels in Safari on iPhone and iPad”
— John Gruber, Daring Fireball
"The app proved incredibly useful. For instance, when on Quora, clicking a link to another Quora page would normally pop up a blocker that requires you to log in to continue navigating the website. With Banish, this pop-up was gone and you could use the site normally"
— Sarah Perez, TechCrunch

Enabled in settings, allowed on all websites, then restarted my phone. Waste of money.

Used to work great, now locking up on Reddit.

Edit: Works perfectly again! Thanks! Original Review: This app used to work great, blocking the annoying “open in Reddit app” pop-up. It still does that, but as of a few weeks ago, it’s started locking up the screen so that you can’t scroll down on Reddit unless you zoom in so that the page doesn’t fit the screen anymore. It’s made the app essentially unusable, and I’ve had to disable it and deal with the Reddit pop-up. Please update the app to address this issue!

No Refunds for App that Doesn’t Work

ejdncnaisnc ens on

United States

Downloaded the app to avoid issues with Facebook, Yelp, Google, and LinkedIn. On the rare chance the app actually blocked anything, it would make the webpage completely empty and unreadable. After trying to make it work for an hour, I accepted that the app simply does not work, but turns out you cannot even request a same-day refund for this unusable product. Highly recommend that others look elsewhere for a solution, as if the company truly believed the product worked, they’d offer at the bare minimum same-day refunds.

Worth its weight in gold.

I found this app while searching for a way to make searching the internet less annoying and more efficient. I am so glad that I paid the very reasonable fee for this app. It has delivered exactly what it advertised with extremely easy set up. Great app, I highly recommend it.
