Rekt: Block Nags, Redirect AMP App Reviews

Tried this today on Reddit. It does hide the “Use app” button, but only visually. If you tap the area it’s at, you still go to the app store. I downloaded this app mostly to avoid those annoying redirects from accidentally tapping that button. It also introduces a new bug with Reddit that prevents scrolling from working until you tap something on the page. Basically it removed a visual annoyance, but didn’t improve usage in my case. Actually made it a bit more annoying, sadly.

Ad-blocking is a constant cat and mouse game where Developers need to make changes frequently. Rekt is a paid app, and you’re at the mercy of the Dev to constantly update it. However, I’ve found that the most stubborn sites break Rekt. Twitter and Reddit are an example. There should be an easier way to contact support directly.

I detest the Google widget banner on the bottom of every search page. I’ve tried other “fixes” and blockers without success. This works. I’ll say it again: THIS WORKS! All the other stuff it does is a sweet, sweet bonus. Great app and thank you!!

Keeps breaking Reddit and other websites. No way to disable temporarily or permanently on certain websites when you open the menu in safari.

UPDATE: The developer reached out and said he was aware of the new issues with Reddit and I can verify the new update works perfectly again!

This extension doesn’t work with Reddit’s other annoying popup “view in app or take me home” . Note that this is different from the “continue in app” popup on reddit amp pages.

No specific issues I’ve noticed in my usage except that I can’t share a tweet via the share sheet on twitter without disabling the extension.
