So in the example above, we would need to create “ignore-previous” rules for and add them only to “Block Ads” and “Block Comments” extensions. So it’s not possible to ignore only some of the previous rules in a single extension.īut having multiple extensions, we can now create “ignore-previous” rules for those extensions that only need to be disabled. Apple’s whitelist rules are called “ignore previous rules”. We couldn’t implement this feature in the old app because it had only one extension. It’s not possible to do this using our old app. What is a partial whitelist? Let’s say, you open and want to keep blocking trackers but unblock ads and comments on that site. One of the most requested features is partial whitelist. Benefits of Multiple Content Blocker Extensionsīesides better content blocking, there are many other benefits of having multiple extensions. No other native Safari content blocker in the App Store is as powerful as 1Blocker X. I’m proud to say that 1Blocker X is able to contain up to 350K rules now thanks to its seven new extensions. It took me six months to move from a single extension to seven independent content blocker extensions, while still keeping the advanced customizability our app provided. However, that requires rewriting the app to handle all these new extensions. The only solution to that problem is to create multiple extensions within 1Blocker that independently manage blocking in Safari. We wanted to block more unwanted content and keep adding more features, but were frustrated by the limit of 50K rules. Apple set the limit at 50K rules, and we were already at 49K. Soon after releasing 1Blocker in 2015 and adding more features (Whitelist, Hide Elements, Make HTTPS, iCloud sync, etc.) and extending our rule sets, we found out that we are about to hit the limit of total number of rules allowed for a Safari content blocker extension. Get 1Blocker X now What’s new in 1Blocker X? Multiple Extensions If you liked the old app, I think you’ll definitely like the new one even better. It’s hard to beat that title and make the app even better, but the X takes the legacy of 1Blocker to a whole new level. 1Blocker has already set a high standard and was named as the best ad blocker for iPhone. We are proud to finally present you the new version of our app, which took us over six months to make.
