iPhone Ad blocker recommendations?

Wait, isn’t Wipr maintained by Giorgio Calderolla anymore? I’m reading the head of the project is… Kaylee Calderolla? His daughter? I don’t understand…

Edit: after doing a little bit of research, understanding how Italian ID and fiscal code number works, I came to the realization that the dev I once knew as Giorgio is now Kaylee. She apparently changed her gender. But I’m happy she’s still providing support to her awesome ad-blocker!

Wiper 2 was just released. One time payment, no subscriptions. It's a universal app for use on any iDevice or Mac.

Looks like it blocks more than just ads now; I visited multiple ad-blocker test sites and it didn't have any issues blocking everything.

Yeah, I purchased it as soon as it launched, but I haven’t tested it yet. I’m reinstalling some devices and I’ll install Wipr 2 instead.

So what happens to the original Wipr?
Does it no longer receive updates?

I love Wipr.

It’s been a godsend on all my devices.

More info about that here

but yes, no more updates to the app and it will also continue to receive blocklist updates.

I switched from AdGuard to Wipr 2 and it seems to work just as well, and the new app design is really nice. Kaylee did fantastic work on this and it looks like she has more plans for the app too!

Just done the same. So far so good.
