![]() Very solid upgrade, looking forward to using the 12-band Parametric EQ. A minor difference but important to me.įew days late to the party but moOde audio v7 (v7.0.1 to be exact) is available. ![]() Kicking off the next year writing instead of starting writing again in 2021. But reading a post from Seth Godin inspired me to pick up writing earlier than planned. Someone needs to do a 2018 edition of Best iOS Ad Blockers, and I mean a brand new test with the latest blockers, not a rejigged 2 year-old article, iMore.Took a few days off writing on my blog. I'm curious how they got around the 50K rule limit though. No, that "less than a cup of coffee" weasel excuse doesn't fly, sorry. Apple made things worse the day they allowed subscriptions. Worst offender is Agile Tortoise with their app Drafts - the yearly pricing is simply ludicrous. I'm glad they aren't adopting the repulsive subscription model like so many of their indie dev-clique are doing, at least. Good thing about the new up front price is that it's at least compatible with Family Sharing, something the IAP model in the old/legacy couldn't offer, for whatever reason. Maybe a 50-70% discount to anyone who purchased in the last 6 months. The devs need to do a better job on that front - giving equal value to all purchasers. However, there seem to be a lot of miffed users, most of whom only bought the app recently (within past year), and I can sympathize with them. By my estimates, that's around 2.5 years of use, so the $4.99 IAP was money well spent. I got great use out of the original 1Blocker, which I bought right after Apple allowed content blocking in iOS. 1Blocker Legacy will still receive updates to rule sets. However, if you're a fan of the tried and true version of the 1Blocker app and don't want to upgrade just yet, don't worry - the company is keeping it up under the name 1Blocker Legacy, so you can use it until you decide you're ready to move on. If you'd like to try 1Blocker X for yourself, you can pre-order it now on iTunes now for $4.99 (which is 30% less than it'll cost once officially released). This vastly improves efficiency, doesn't slow down Safari, and, as mentioned above saves battery life. ![]() More efficient blocking than any other ad blocker: While most other adblock apps block content by filtering elements of an already downloaded page, 1Blocker uses Safari content blocker technology (API) to tell Safari in advance what should be blocked.Partial whitelist: 1Blocker X will now allows users to create "ignore-previous" rules for certain sites, so they can view ads and comments only when they want to.Battery- and data-saving capabilities: Independent tests by Wirecutter, NY Times, and BrooksReview have confirmed that 1Blocker cuts data loaded by sites on average by over 50%.New interface: The new user interface combined what was already great in the old app with a plethora of improvements, making it more intuitive than ever to use. ![]() Touch ID and Face ID protection: Requested often by parents, 1Blocker X now offers Face/Touch ID capabilities, which protect parents' blocking preferences from being changed by their kids.User-friendly editor: There's an integrated, easy-to-use rule editor in 1Blocker X, allowing you to create your custom rules for a completely hands-on experience.Over 120,000 rules: 1Blocker X boasts a greatly improved rule set, and will block ads (47.8K rules), trackers (13.3K rules), annoyances (39.7K rules), comments (262 rules), adult sites (3.7K rules), and German and Russian ads (16.3K rules).
