I was looking for exactly something like this but probably developers doesn’t quite understand the underlying technology of Safari. This app is anything but privacy friendly. It loads the website and then redirects you to is which still sends your data to the server.

I’m gonna wait couple days if development tries to fix this before refunding because I really needed something like this. But fix the privacy issues please b

Hey there! We understand the underlying technology of Safari, and have to work within its limitations. The redirect occurs as soon as possible, but due to limitations in the API support of Safari we cannot redirect before the initial request is sent. Please see previous discussions on the topic.

That’s totally not true. But that’s why I’m refunding. It’s false privacy.
