User Reviews

Sheriff is praised for granular per-site control of JavaScript, cookies, and fonts within Safari, with a default block and per-site exceptions. The interface is clean, and the app feels reliable and actively updated, with many users willing to pay for Pro features. Common drawbacks are the lack of a macOS version, an initial over-blocking learning curve, and considerations around Pro pricing. Overall, Sheriff stands out for precise, site-by-site privacy controls for power users.

Pros

Granular per-site control of JavaScript, cookies, and fonts (per-site blocking) within Safari.
Default block with per-site exceptions, enabling precise privacy control.
Clean, intuitive interface with Safari actions for quickly adding exceptions; stable performance.
Strong privacy/security focus with active development and updates.
Value in Pro features and willingness to support via a paid upgrade.

Cons

Not available on macOS; a macOS port is requested by users.
Initial over-blocking risk and learning curve; requires time to configure to avoid breaking sites.
Pro pricing gating features; some users may consider the cost when upgrading to Pro.

Recent reviews

Easily allows whitelisting JavaScript, cookies, fonts, etc. on a per-site basis from within Safari. Sheriff is unique in this regard. Most other content blockers focus on an ad-blocking workflow or similar. Which is still beneficial, but tackles a different issue. Would love to see this available for macOS. Having strict control over JavaScript, cookies, and fonts is a must for me. I think this could become hugely popular with technical users if it was easier to discover. Searching “Sheriff” brings up lots of unrelated stuff.

I've been looking for a content blocker like this off and on for years. My only gripe is it's not available for MacOS

Biggest downside is ex boyfriends and hackers use it to stalk you and get away with with. Going to police station and phone store on the 11th. No one’s privacy should be this easy to invade and control
