Word Replacer for Safari

Replace and hide website text

Features & Capabilities

Replace words and phrases on websites with your own text rules in Safari. This Safari extension offers flexible matching options, rule ordering, and convenient tools for testing and backing up your settings.

Key Features: • Create replacement rules with a source "Word" and target "Replacement". • Use CS for case-sensitive matching and IN to match text inside larger words. For example, when the Word is her, turning IN off replaces only standalone her, while turning IN on also replaces her inside words such as other and there. • Control priority with Rule Order (Top-Down or Bottom-Up) when multiple rules can match the same text. • Set Default CS, Default IN, and Default RX so new rules start with your preferred options. • Use Import / Export to back up your settings as JSON and restore them later. • Preview how your current rules will transform text with the built-in Replacement Test.

Advanced Matching: • Turn RX on if you want to use regular expressions in the Word field. • Turn RX off to match symbols as plain text without escaping them. • Example: to match [y/n], enter [y/n] with RX off, or [y/n] with RX on.

Notes: • Works in Safari on websites where this extension is allowed. • Spaces, punctuation, and surrounding characters affect how text is matched. • Due to the wide variety of websites, compatibility with every site cannot be guaranteed. • If needed, feel free to contact us before installing to check whether this extension works on a specific site.

User Reviews

Users praise Word Replacer for Safari as simple, reliable, and powerful, with helpful options like case-sensitive replacements. It improves reading experience and accessibility, aiding language learning and translation readability and accommodating diverse use cases (e.g., fanfiction pronouns). A common drawback is a confusing plus button label, along with occasional site-specific quirks and setup ambiguities. Overall, most reviews indicate the extension works well and is worth the cost.
Pros
  • Easy to use and reliably performs as advertised.
  • Powerful customization options, including case-sensitive replacements and other settings.
  • Improves reading experience and accessibility, expanding reading options (news readability, language learning, translation readability).
  • Useful for a variety of use cases such as fanfiction pronoun/name replacements and other targeted replacements.
Cons
  • Confusing plus button label leads to user confusion; users wish for a clearer Add Word indicator instead of a generic 'plus'.

What an incredible extension! And I love that I can now fix the words that are incorrect on websites, but that “plus” button I went looking for it until I realised it’s the button that says “plus” on the extension menu. I wish it said “Add Word” instead! Nobody knows what plus means as a button!
