How To Turn Off Pop-Up Blocker on iPhone?

Govind

When you are using any Apple device, the one thing you won’t ever have to complain about is the usability and user experience. One of the most important features among them is the pop-up blocker, which is enabled by default in the Safari app on both iPhones and iPads.

The primary objective of this feature is to block out every unnecessary pop-up ad or website that opens when you open a certain website on Safari and disrupts normal usability. However, if you are using a website that requires these pop-ups to function normally, then you’d need to know how to disable the blocker on your iPhone.

This article will explain more about the necessity of a pop-up blocker on an iPhone, its features, and how to turn it off.

Why should you enable the pop-up blocker on your iPhone?

Pop-ups on the website aren’t a standard or mandatory requirement. But, some websites, including your bank’s website, will need access to pop-ups to perform the tasks without a breach.

There are a handful of websites where you can’t perform normal tasks on the website without the pop-ups.

Hence, enabling the pop-ups on Safari is more than just convenience. On some websites, it is a mandatory requirement.

How to Disable the pop-up blocker on iPhone?

If you are personally not a big fan of the pop-up blocker on Safari on your iPhone, be assured that disabling it isn’t as difficult as you think.

It is quite simple and easy to work with. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Open your iPhone Settings and navigate until you find Safari.
  2. On this page, you get access to a lot of options where you can configure the browser settings.
  3. Go to the “general” section and find the “Block Pop-ups” option. You have to toggle off that option.

With that, Safari’s pop-up blocker option is now disabled on your iPhone. This will launch the small pop-up windows that you notice on the browser.

One thing we’d recommend you do is to keep an eye out for the kind of messages that are coming up on the pop-up blocker. If you notice the messages are intrusive and unwarranted, we’d recommend keeping an eye out for those and avoiding “allowing” any notifications if you don’t want to be bombarded with unnecessary notifications in your inbox. It can be a little complicated to uncover in the beginning, but you should get a hang of things quickly.
