Ghostery for IOS is a mobile browser that helps you manage the data collected about you as you browse. With Ghostery for iOS, you can: DETECT: Ghostery sees the "invisible" web, detecting trackers, web bugs, pixels, and ...
Excellent browser to block many tracking cookies and Ads navigating forward and backward is hard to work with and would need improving thank you for offering this alternative browser for free good privacy
I use the Safari Ghostery extension on an iMac and it works extremely well I am therefore disappointed that the OS App falls far short of my expectations The problem is not in its primary function to block ad tracking it seems to do this well The problem is with the crude browser which is extremely limited and buggy Pages display compressed on the left kill the tab and reload to fix and links very rarely open in a new tab when pressed and held A page cannot be AirPrinted I am nowhere close to a Web browser power user but I am giving up on this app as too limited after a couple of weeks attempting to use it Nice concept but seriously flawed
I use it often to search for products and services It keeps the ads on other apps from being cluttered with things that I dont want Nice product
Sometimes the links within a webpage simply do not open when clicked upon but what makes this app worth it is that it blocks the companies that track you and it even shows you which companies tried to do such a thing THANK YOU Worth it
Although not as good as the original safari the purpose of this app is very needed I only noticed one problem so far If it was something I could find a way to get past I would When you scroll down on a website you cannot go back forward exit out of a tab etc unless you scroll all the way back up Its annoying since it also takes awhile to scroll back up depending on how far down you were Please fix this or tell me a way to get around this that I do not know of Also not sure if youre up for adding features but I think you should add an area to view what trackers you have blocked 5 stars because this app does what it claims to Good app
Often hangs up or refuses to connect Not worthless but certainly not worth as much as it use to be Does not work well with my ipad
Thanks very much for preserving my privacy However Id really appreciate more flexibility in editing andor saving bookmarks Right now I can add bookmarks or shift them between bookmark folders but I cannot reorder either one Or am I missing something Bookmark editing not optimum
Great app it does exactly as it says also use it for my ipad Love it
I seem to be very pleased with this app up here in NID Good work And thanks Ghostery
Works great tho it does close at random times for no reason Works great
There was a prior version released on Feb 17 or 18 that was broken on iPads About a week later a new version fixed the problem Now it is back a my primary browser Very Good App
Discovered Ghostery at DEFCON 2014 it is one of the greatest products ever Ghostery
With all the tracking and spyware gone mainstream and normal in the virtual world it is a comforting solace to have a group like Ghostery still fighting the good fight Additionallythey do it for free How much more can you ask for That just gives consumers one more reason to trust this group I would recommend it to any and ALL of my closest relationships Keep up the good work Ghostery Feeling Relieved
This cant even run twitch while Im at school Not great
Dont track me Gets the job done
Great app dont hesitate to get it if youre concerned about your privacy My rating
Needs an update Good but
awesome awesome
This app is fabtastic Allows me control of who can track my online life andor for what purpose Ghost ME
Ive seen the 23 screen bug Killing the tab seems to fix that Ive also seen an outoforder behavior on bookmarks but restarting the browser puts them back in alphabetical order More advanced bookmark handling options are missing Good Overall
Good start and gets me the coverage I need Why does the browser window not as wide as the iPad Good app needs revisions
I pretty much copypaste most URLs into this app It loads webpages quickly and blocks the trackers Love seeing trackers blocked
Problem one seems to lack commitment to browser Potentially could could be one of the best browsers for iOS but searches for browsers dont show this app so demand isnt generated Problem two buggy see above iOS 9 will support plug ins is that the direction they intend to go Thats theyre market anyway Im just going to wait and see Not ready for prime time yet
This app has a clean simple interface on my iPad Nice job Does a great job
Theo only app that does what it does The browser isnt really a concern great job you guys keep it upawesome app Brilliantfreeawesome
I dont like it Confusing
I much prefer this over Safari No need to worry about being tracked Very good
I love Ghostery and Im glad its landed on iOS Hope they keep refining it Great app
Keep up the great work Privacy at last
I love Ghostery It blocks so many trackers Takes a little getting used to but not bad Cuts down dramatically on pop ups Excellent
most rewarding proxy private browser in the market One flaw need switch duck is losing ground of your privacy other browser engine proxy
So Maybe this app isnt as sophisticated as other browsers I dont care What I DO like is how quick it is Without all the tracer baggage that the other browsers support I virtually fly to the sites I want It NEVER fails to be at least five times faster than safari or firefox Thank you Ghostery Quick
On some sites like Google Amazon and apartments dot com Safari will become unresponsive and my connection switches from wifi to cellular LTE and back again After a few seconds it becomes responsive again before again becoming unresponsive seconds later All the while the connection switches between wifi and cellular I hope developers read this and come up with a fix iPhone 6 running iOS 814 Safari hangs on some sites
Excellent idea flawed execution Works beautifully as a browser addon for PCs but not so much as a standalone browser 1 Has trouble returning to the right place when returning from a link 2 Currently the right third of the screen frequently gets blocked off shrinking everything to near unreadability Still problems
Love it Excellent
Reveals who is monitoring your browsing Good App
It works well but more features would help Great privacy in basic browser
No evidence icons of blocked BS that its doing anything in iOS but works great on my Mac Ghostery
I enjoy a Private Browser that isnt a Privacy Bowser Ghosts my internet worries away
Works as advertised I like it and have used it regularly Serves its purpose
Discover the astonishing number of stuff that follows you everywhere Amusing that while you squash critters you also report how effective they are I select sharing to keep Ghostery funded BUT Very limited browser Cant do APIs in iOS Need a deal with an iOS browser to integrate with ghostery Whos on first
this browser works great much faster than safari and removes all the awful ads and endless tracking simply install and run When app opens go to the web site of your choice and look in upper right hand corner you will see a ghost icon with a number Click than icon and turn OFF ALL THE SWITCHES You will see a line go through them and that s it you will have to turn off tem off only once but once you do they will not come back After the first day you will no longer be pestered by slow loading web sites or annoying ads thanks so much for this wonderful gift fantastic
Optimally would like to see Apple buy this app and integrate it into Safari In meantime Ghostery team updating app to work more like Safari would be nice Lately being click jacked from Safari to App Store Clash of app and using ghostery seems to prevent this Satisfied but would like enhancements
I use this App to allow me to view some websites that I like that have so many ads that it actually knocks me off these websites Works fairly well for me Ghostery Review
Seems to work very well however some even trustworthy web links wont open and full screen videos often have the control bar hidden below screen Canis majorum
The app is not developed enough and its current form The duck duck go search engine does not retain the settings you select The there is no option to share or shave web addresses or links to your pictures or other type of files to any other program I will keep using the browse for its security features but hope that future updates will deal with these issues Love it on Firefox needs improvement on iOS
Dont bother Buggy and slow
Im not gonna go into detail this app does everything it claims to do wonderfully The only thing keeping me from rating this perfectly are just two things It has issues displaying some websites forcing me to load them on safari and compromise my privacy and it doesnt have an on this page search feature like safari does which is incredibly helpful for finding something specific in pages that are wordheavy If this browser can do these two things it will become the definitive replacement of Safari Great just needs a couple more things
Id like to always have it start on a given page Why doesnt it seem to have this basic feature Set a home page
