Recent reviews

This allows images to show for a few seconds before hiding them so it fails in its main function. Suggest using browser built-in blocker (in Brave it is under Settings > Privacy and Security > Site and shields > images)

Useless

total garbage. I got it to be able to sign petitions online (but cannot bear the horrific images with them) and I downloaded this useless app and still got every.single.image. in my face.
