About This App

uBlock is a free, open-source browser extension for blocking ads, trackers, malware and other unwanted content across websites. It works as a content filter in web browsers including Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Edge, using filter lists (like EasyList and uBlock filters) to identify and suppress ads and tracking scripts before they load. Users install it directly in their browser to improve page load speed, reduce data usage, protect privacy and improve the browsing experience. It is one of the most widely used ad blockers among power users and privacy-conscious web users.

uBlock is a browser extension, not a standalone macOS application, so its compatibility depends on the browser it runs in rather than on macOS itself or Rosetta 2. The good news is that modern versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Edge all ship native Apple Silicon builds, and uBlock runs as native code within those browsers on M-series Macs. If you are using uBlock inside a native browser, the extension is already running natively and there is no action needed. If you are still running an older Intel-only build of your browser, updating the browser itself to its latest version will automatically provide the native build and resolve any compatibility issues. To confirm your browser is native, open it and go to About [Browser Name] in the menu — if it reports "Apple Silicon" or "Arm64" architecture, you are all set. Once your browser is up to date, uBlock will continue to work without any separate update on your part.
