Why Should You Use Rekt?
Whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Imgur, Quora, or Reddit, everyone wants me, and by extension you, to use their damned apps to consume content.
Apps makes it harder for us to block ads and much easier for them to scoop up your data. To further that agenda, simply browsing their sites on Safari now means we’re inundated with, well, waves of crap.
Whether it’s a modal covering half the screen with links to the App Store, an immediate popup asking you to login, or a header screaming “the app is 10x better”; it has to go. All of it.
Phase #1: Social Media
Automatically Clean Up Reddit, IG, Twitter, and More
More sites are being added every fortnight (or so)
Removes App Banners
Rekt removes website banners that yell "the app is 10x faster" and take up half the darn screen. Smart app banners are left as-is.
Redirect AMP Links
Better writers than I have written about the problems with the AMP program. Yes, those are five different links.
Removes Login Popups
Annoyed with popups asking you to login as you scroll below the fold? Rekt can help you avoid this nuisance.
Privacy First
When it comes to privacy, we don't take any chances. Rekt has been engineered from the ground up to ensure your privacy. Read more about our privacy policy here.
- All blocking happens on your phone
- No data leaves your device
- No usage data (or any other data) is logged
- No in-app telemetry or crash analytics
If you're a security researcher, feel free to reach out to me for a license to make sure the app isn't up to anything funky.

As safe as it can be given it has cleared Apple's review process. You can also verify with
a network tool to see if we transmit data somewhere (we don't).

As a Safari extension, introduced in iOS 15, Rekt runs once when the site has been loaded, removes all nuisances and quietly exits. That's it!
Rekt is a one time purchase of $1.99. Rekt has no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases. Buy it once and enjoy!
No, absolutely none. There are no in-app purchases either.
Privacy has been a driving ideal behind Rekt's development. Absolutely zero data is logged or saved by Rekt. We don't even use basic telemetry or analytics for the app.
