Many users feel annoyed about pop-ups. But do you know that some pop-ups are helpful and even necessary? Read on to learn more about the types of pop-ups, ways of blocking or unblocking them, and our recommended adblocker.<\/p>\n

Why Should You Block or Allow Pop-ups?<\/h2>\n

Pop-ups are not all alike. Some pop-ups are malicious and may clog your device, while others are designed to provide helpful news, send you relevant discount codes, or open a secure download window. Malicious pop-ups always come from unsecured websites. (You can check for legitimacy<\/a> using this Google tool.) Watch out for Safari extensions, too, some of which contain spyware. Ultimately, it\u2019s up to users to identify the pop-ups that they wish to block or not.<\/p>\n

How to Turn Off or Allow Pop-ups on Mac<\/h2>\n

You can block any pop-up on Safari through the browser\u2019s content settings.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open Safari<\/strong> browser.<\/li>\n
  2. Click Safari > Preferences<\/strong> on the top bar of the desktop. (Keyboard shortcuts: Command \u201c\u2318\u201d + comma<\/strong>).

    How to Turn Off or Allow Pop-ups on iPhone and iPad<\/h2>\n
