I’ve been running it for days and it’s the sort of thing you don’t notice at all until you disable it and all of a sudden you’re back to approving cookie access every single goddamn time […] I’d recommend Hush to anyone who uses Safari
– John Gruber, Daring Fireball 23 January 2021
Hush is private, free and fast – read more on the website.
Requires iOS 10.14 or later.
Requires macOS 11 or later. Direct download.
Unlike some blockers, Hush has absolutely no access to your browser habits or passwords. Nor does it track behavior or collect crash reports - nothing leaves your device.
Everything is free of charge. Forever. No in-app purchases, no nonsense. However, any help towards covering the yearly Apple Developer fee is greatly appreciated.
The app is primarily a host of rules that integrates with Safari in a native, lightweight way, making the blocking efficient and fast.
It's as easy as downloading the app and enabling it in Safari settings ⭢ Content Blockers. No configuration or maintenance needed.
The source code is published under the permissive MIT license.
Hush is written in Apple's latest programming paradigm Swift UI and has native support for M1 processors.
The app download clocks in at less than half a megabyte.
To build the app in Xcode, you need to have deno installed first:
brew install deno
xcode-select --installOn some sites it's not possible to block/hide cookie notices or tracking consent screens without also breaking the site. Other sites have obfuscations in place to prevent blocking. Regardless, you may open an issue on GitHub or fill in a form to report it.
First ensure that it's actually Hush breaking it by disabling it in settings and reloading the page. If it works after this, please report it by opening an issue.
