User reviews

Amazon Unsponsor is valued for effectively removing or highlighting sponsored listings on various Amazon sites, enhancing shopping experience by reducing promotional clutter. Users appreciate its simplicity, domain support, and responsive developer. However, its effectiveness varies by domain, often requiring page refreshes, and sometimes only partially removing sponsored content. The highlight styling could be more visible, and the extension occasionally stops working temporarily. Some sponsored ads in product recommendation sections remain unaffected.

Pros

Effectively removes or highlights sponsored listings on Amazon, improving user browsing experience.
Supports multiple localized Amazon domains, including amazon.de and Amazon Smile.
Simple to use with permissions limited to Amazon websites.
Developer is responsive, providing quick updates and fixes.
Allows customization options like fully removing sponsored ads or just highlighting them.

Cons

Does not work on all Amazon domains, like amazon.com.au and smile.amazon.com.
Needs page refresh (F5) to apply changes fully, especially after navigation or scrolling.
Inconsistent functionality; sometimes stops working for periods or only removes initial sponsored listings, not those loaded during scrolling.
Highlighting sponsored items uses a subtle gray background which some users find insufficiently visible.
Limited effect on 'Products related to this item' sections where sponsored products may still appear.
