Apple’s iOS 18 continues to evolve with the release of Public Beta 3, and this time, it’s Safari that’s getting a significant upgrade. A new feature dubbed “Distraction Control” is aiming to transform your web browsing experience by giving you the power to declutter web pages.
Say Goodbye to Distractions
The new Distraction Control feature in Safari is a game-changer for those who find themselves easily overwhelmed by cluttered web pages. With just a few taps, you can now hide distracting elements like ads, pop-ups, and unnecessary content, creating a cleaner and more focused reading environment.
How does it work?
- Identify Distractions: Safari intelligently suggests elements that might be considered distracting.
- Manual Control: You have complete control. Select specific elements to hide or unhide as needed.
- Temporary Fix: While the feature is handy, it’s important to note that hidden elements will reappear when you reload or refresh the page.
A More Immersive Browsing Experience
By minimizing visual clutter, Distraction Control helps you concentrate on the content that matters. Whether you’re reading an article, researching information, or simply browsing the web, this feature can significantly enhance your overall Safari experience.
While iOS 18 is still in beta, this new feature shows promising potential for improving web browsing on iPhones.
