About Popup Blocker - block pop up requests
Streaming, shopping, and WordPress sites often open unwanted pop-ups or redirect users to ad pages. This Chrome extension prevents all types of popups and popunders before they appear.
When a popup is blocked, you'll see a badge count and an optional page notification. If multiple identical requests are made, the badge counter increments. For previously visited sites, the extension automatically allows or denies requests based on your prior decisions.
What happens if a website tries to open a popup while using this extension?
The extension blocks the popup request and displays a notification in the top right corner of the page. Enjoy distraction-free browsing!
You’ll have the option to:
- Deny the request
- Allow the request
- Open the request in a background tab
- Redirect the current page to the requested source
Do I need an Adblock?
This extension doesn't hinder network requests or ads similar to adblock extensions. It serves a specific purpose, safeguarding you from popups and popunders. For an enhanced browsing experience, pair this extension with Adblock. Think of it as an additional tool to minimize distractions and interruptions.
Notes:
- By placing your mouse over a notification, the counter stops counting so that the user can review the popup request.
- By placing your mouse over a notification, you can get the full URL in the tooltip (when the full URL is not visible).
- You can ignore page notifications for a site by adding the hostname to the whitelist (renamed to exception list).
- This extension does not block overlay pop-ups like cookie messages.
- It works offline. There are no server-side activities whatsoever
