Ghostery – Privacy Ad Blocker - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Ghostery counts more than 100+ million downloads worldwide.

Ghostery for Safari provides safe, fast, and clutter-free browsing for free. The browser extension upgrades your Safari browser and supplies full adblock functionality, stops trackers from accessing your personal data, and annoying cookie consent pop-ups.

Ghostery has three main components:

* Ad-Blocking - blocks all ads on websites you visit with your Safari browser, including Youtube and Facebook, helping you to focus only on the information important to you.
* Anti-Tracking - stops trackers’ ability to collect your personal data, replacing it with random values and anonymizing your identity for data brokers. If you see a need to unblock individual trackers, we developed this option. The reasons are up to you!
* Never-Consent - automatically removes intrusive cookie popups and expresses dissent to online tracking. This unequaled feature adds convenience to each website visit and acts like your privacy advocate towards content providers while using Safari.

Ghostery delivers the online privacy protection our users have come to know and love while minimising the need for customisation and maintenance.

As Ghostery is more than an ad-blocker, it comes with exceptional additional features, not found in any other ad-blocking extension:

* Trackers information on any website you visit, informing you about the number of trackers, their type, and the company operating them.
* Trackers Preview on search engine result pages - displaying tracker information even before you visit a page. You can safely make the choice to visit it, as Ghostery will stop trackers expecting you on the landing page.
* WhoTracks.Me - Owning and operating the largest database of trackers allows Ghostery to update tracker information fast and reliably for all users.
* Managing your adblock, antitracking, and cookie popup removal function in one click.

Moreover, Ghostery is:

* Open source
* Supported by thousands of contributors worldwide
* Free to use forever

Ghostery is free for everyone. Take back control over your digital privacy and become a Contributor to Ghostery. Contributors help Ghostery fund the development of the Privacy Suite and WhoTracks.Me, the largest database of trackers in the world.

Didn’t work

Followed the set up instructions, but still getting ads. Very disappointed

10/10

The only app of its kind that appears to actually do the job it's meant to. Removes the irritating youtube ads, and much more. Very happy with this. Thank you team x

Brilliant ad blocker

Absolutely great, works smooth and never fails me. Also has a good suit of other privacy tools I tend to use.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD

SENDS NONE STOP NOTIFICATIONS HOW DO I GET RID WTFFFFFF

won't install

This disappeared from my imac. So I have re-downloaded it. The "step by step instructions" are two rapidly changing gifs the size of a beer mat which, with the help of magnification, bear no resemblence to their own web page, Safari or theoir own application. It would be useful if program support used the same computers as their customers.

Rubbish

just a scam. Sends constant scare monger pop ups sayomg you have a Virus just to get you to their page on the app store - DO NOT TOUCH IT.

Blocks all ads on anime websites, would highly recommend.

Was looking for an anime website ad blocker, this works.

Was working great

This app was great but just recently it seems to be blocking nothing

Needs work

Cookie blocking option only occasionally works. Also settings screen has very poor grammar this is normally signs of a fake app

Excellent Ad blocking

This extension blocks ads + popups on every website I visit on Safari.
