wBlock is a Safari content blocker designed to remove advertisements, tracking elements, and unwanted website distractions across Apple devices. It supports up to 750,000 filtering rules distributed across multiple Safari content blockers. Users can enable recommended filter lists, automatically selected regional lists, and additional privacy or annoyance filters. Custom lists can be imported through URLs, files, or pasted text. Its userscript engine supports Greasemonkey-compatible scripts, custom CSS themes, and webpage modifications. Built-in video enhancements provide native Safari playback controls, picture-in-picture, background audio, and SponsorBlock integration. Additional privacy tools remove tracking parameters and resolve shortened links. wBlock supports macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS with configurable automatic filter updates.
