Description

StopTheScript is a Safari extension for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that stops all JavaScript on your selected websites. StopTheScript is the only Safari extension that stops inline JavaScript on the web page as well as externally loaded JavaScript. This is in contrast to Safari content blockers, which can only block external JavaScript, not inline JavaScript. StopTheScript is made by indie developer Jeff Johnson.

  • Oh yeah.

    Exactly what I needed. I especially love the no-nonsense permission-based blocking which preserves security since this is an extension from a developer I don't know. Great app, thank you for sharing.

  • Freedom from invasive and aggressive internet activity

    Stop the script combined with stop the madness is the only solution on iPhone that can deal with todays emerging cybersecurity threats within Safari. Run it full time, if it blocks a site completely ie most Meta products maybe you should not be using those sites in the first place.

  • Definitely the best app on my phone

    If I could only have a single app outside of Safari itself, this would be it. It really makes the web usable again and for folks like me on a metered connection, it ensures that I'm not paying for crap that I never even wanted.

  • Worthless - all or nothing garbage app

    Either blocks EVERYTHING or nothing at all. You can’t whitelist and it won’t let websites load any embedded JavaScript, which basically every website has. It does not block cookie notifications at all. The goal and the claim here is to block java popups that are initially hidden but arrive after a few seconds asking for an email or subscription, but it’s a blunt instrument that blocks ALL java content from websites without the ability to whitelist, rendering it effectively worthless.

  • Edit rules in app

    Would it be possible to allow editing rules within the application? There is an application named ‘Pro Script’ on the AppStore that allows this. It would be much easier to be able to do that. As well as import external rules. Lastly, ‘Pro Script’ allows blocking document, image, style-sheet, script, font, raw, svg-document, media, pop up, ping, fetch, web socket, and ‘other’. It would be awesome if we were able to have finer control over this. Thank you for your work!

    I don’t typically write reviews, however- THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR CREATING THIS APP!

  • Unclear how to disable from within safari

    By AndrewKennedy
    Once JavaScript has been disabled on a site, it's unclear how to disable this extension without digging through the settings app. Is there a better way to toggle it off?
