I visit this one site regularly and it's driving me nuts as these big ads seem to move around herky jerky. I hit the X to close the ad and it comes back moving around herky jerky.

So annoying when trying to navigate.

I am using safari as a browser with ios7 and iPad air.

Thanks

Can I block or turn off ads?

Unfortunately no. The only thing you can do is try to use a different browser. I know the type of ads you're talking about. They can be frustrating.

Thanks, glad u know what I mean. I scroll and the ad moves all over. Then I go to click a link and it moves up and shakes the screen.

This never happened in the previous os.

Thanks, I will try a different browser.

Try Adblocker......

Isn't that only available on jailbroken devices? If they are on iOS 7, and I'm assuming they are since this is the iOS 7 forum, then there is no way that they can be using a jailbroken device.

Yep adblocker for jb devices.

I can deal with ads but those crazy ones that move around as I surf is ridiculous!

I am using an app called Adblocker, right now..... My device is not JB...

Are you talking about Adblock? I could not find an app named Adblocker, hence the statement about it only being on jailbroken devices.

There is an app named adblocker which is really a browser that blocks ads.

I am currently trying it. Not sure if the poster meant that?

Okay, I didn't see that one in the App Store. I'm sure that is what they meant.

Must be :)

Initially seems okay. But have to input every single username/password which I have so many I forget them.

Safari just automatically log me in most forums/sites.

And that ios7 feature keychain ? Why does it want to remember my user and nick before I even "try" loggin in? It should remember after I get the right user and pass then save it. IMO.
 
Sorry I should have been more clear... I was being lazy...

No problem as I found it :)

its just a bit confusing as there are so many apps etc with simiar names. or at least a few.

No harm done.

Happy that you suggested it. I will keep using it until.
 
Oh I think I had that on my other ipad. I didn't use it much for some reason but then again I wasn't on IOS7 at the time.

Thanks
