User Reviews

Overall, reviewers like Magic Lasso for strong ad blocking and responsive support, with long-term reliability noted by some. However, recurring concerns dominate: a costly, forced-subscription model with restore and billing problems; inconsistent ad blocking on YouTube and certain apps; and stability issues that disrupt iMessage, Wi-Fi, and other services. Several reviews also cite limited platform compatibility (e.g., Apple TV) and sites that bypass the blocker. The value depends on your use case and tolerance for billing quirks and reliability.

Pros

Effective ad blocking across multiple apps and websites (especially Safari), with some users noting blocking in Apple News and Stocks.
Excellent, responsive customer support with quick replies and proactive follow-ups.
Long-term reliability and ongoing improvements by an independent developer; some users view it as good value.

Cons

Subscription and billing issues: forced trial, restoring purchases failing, and high annual price.
Inconsistent blocking on YouTube and other sites/apps; some content bypassed.
Stability issues that disrupt connectivity or other apps (iMessage, Wi‑Fi, banking apps).
Limited platform compatibility (e.g., Apple TV) and sites that bypass the blocker.

Recent reviews

I tried this app to see if it would block ads in the YT app on ATV. I was unsuccessful. After reading some more on their website, I'm still not sure it was designed to do that. I would appreciate a little more clarity from the developer. I don't need it for any of my other devices so I can't speak to how it works there. YMMV.
