Useless

This app does nothing of what it supposed to do! Even with a select all I still get annoying and useless adds!
I guess not many people actually READ anymore

I rely pretty heavily on reviews for apps in my browsing and shopping on the App Store but if I went by was the star ratings alone I would get things wrong too often. Taking the time to actually read through the reviews for this app, I noticed that people give me a negative reviews are complaining that he does not do something it does not even advertise/claim that it will do. This app is designed to opt you out of receiving personalized ads. NOT block ads all together. So far it does seem to do a fair job at killing the personalization of ads that I see. It used to be that I could browse/shop for a particular item in one app like eBay and then use my web browser and see an ad pop up for the exact item I viewed elsewhere. I was even seeing adds related to subjects I had previously browsed online in private mode popping up everywhere no matter how many times I went to add settings and opted out which was extremely frustrating for me. So far I am seeing improvement although it does take some time for some settings to update.
This app is a scam.

I don't know what laws your trying to circumvent by even offering this, but the app doesn't work and is otherwise useless. It straight up does not allow you to opt-out. It dangles links to give the impression you have an option, but the links are unresponsive. Btw, I tried to opt-out on their website and although it recognizes your choice it immediately resets once you logout. Anyone who works in this industry does so with a specious motive to begin with, and this app ain't helping their credibility ✌?
Minor hiccup fixed

The bottom button necessary to opt out of the list did not work first try. I ended the session (double-clicked home button, swiped up on this app to kill it). Once I restarted it, the button worked.
This app works, if you can read

If your a “Select All” or “Off” selections are not working you may have Limit Ad Tracking enabled on your device. Go to Settings > Privacy > Advertising then turn off Limit Ad Tracking and return to the app.
Love this app

My name is Candace Doh and I just want to say thanks a lot to the maker of this app... I appreciate it/everything it does. I read the other reviews and I agree with the reviews that say "works for the ppl who actually read"......... I really really appreciate this app.... it means a lot to me.... just saying
Opt out button doesn’t work. Seems useless

So, I read the reviews, positive ones said you need to read the app and it tells you how it works and what it does. However when you view the list of ad companies, and try and follow the instructions to opt out, the opt out button doesn’t work. It just does nothing. Same goes for the select all button, nothing. It’s basically an info app at this point. I mean, I'm an app developer and so I don’t typically have issues figuring out how an app is supposed to work, this one just seems broken. Am I missing something? Is it only broken on some iPhones?
Not sure if app has a positive effect.

In order for the app to work you have to disable the feature in your iPhone privacy settings that limits ad tracking. I don’t know if this app provides greater privacy protection than opting out of ad tracking but it seems that I have to choose between one or the other.
