Search Ban: Filter Results app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Tony Sundharam
First release : 19 Dec 2021
App size: 6.81 Mb
Search Ban is a super minimal Safari extension that declutters and cleans up your search results. Tired of seeing tons of nonsense spam websites on your Google searches? Search Ban silently, and safely, removes all of them.
PRIVACY FIRST
---------------
Search Ban has been built with a privacy first approach.
- All the blocking happens on your device with literally ZERO data being recorded or sent back to be data mined.
- Search Ban doesnt keep historic usage data like the count of how many sites it has blocked.
- It doesnt even come with basic app analytics or telemetry to keep track of how many times youve opened or use the app.
- It does check whether you have dark mode on or not so it can show you the correct tutorial video. (I hate opening a bright video on dark mode as much as you.)
If youre a security researcher, feel free to reach out to me for a license to make sure the app isnt up to anything funky.
EASY AS 1-2-3
---------------
Ban sites with just a tap of the hammer icon. Monitor what sites are being banned on any page and unban with another tap. Easy peasy!
DECLUTTER YOUR SEARCH RESULTS
----------------------------------
Currently, it de-clutters and removes spam websites from regular Google search. Search Ban will support image search on Google as well as other search sites like DuckDuckGo and Bing in the next few updates.
