TowerGate combines device-wide DNS privacy, Safari content blocking, and a Video Browser built for more comfortable playback, all from one simple control center.
Block common ads, trackers, telemetry, and malicious domains before they load. Use encrypted DNS protection across supported traffic on your iPhone and iPad, add an extra blocking layer in Safari, and choose how strongly TowerGate should filter.
WHY TOWERGATE
• Block common ads and trackers
Filter known advertising, tracking, telemetry, gambling, and security domains before they connect.
• Works beyond Safari
Safari content blockers only work in Safari. TowerGate’s DNS layer can filter supported requests from apps, games, and other browsers across your device.
• Encrypted DNS routing
Route DNS lookups over DNS-over-HTTPS through the selected privacy-focused filtering provider.
• Safari web blocking
Reduce ads, trackers, popups, and page clutter in Safari where supported by iOS content-blocking rules.
• Three protection levels
Choose Balanced, Strict, or Privacy First. Stronger modes filter more categories, while Balanced is designed to reduce site and app breakage.
• Status at a glance
See whether DNS and Safari protection need attention, refresh Safari rules, and check TowerGate from the Home Screen widget.
VIDEO BROWSER
TowerGate now includes a dedicated browser for watching supported video websites with more control.
• Picture in Picture and background playback
Keep supported videos playing in PiP or continue listening when TowerGate moves to the background.
• Your personal video library
Save pages as Favorites or Watch Later, organize them with folders and tags, and continue supported videos from your saved playback position.
• Sleep Timer
Stop playback after a selected duration or when the current video ends.
• Playback controls
Choose a default playback speed, control fullscreen rotation, block autoplay, keep the screen awake during video, and manage AirPlay and Bluetooth output.
• Faster access
Search the web, add and arrange your favorite video sites, and revisit pages from local browser history.
• Fewer website interruptions
On supported sites, TowerGate helps reduce cookie prompts and banners that try to open another app.
PRIVACY LOCK
Protect the entire app or only the Video Browser with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode. You can also hide TowerGate’s preview in the app switcher.
PREMIUM PROTECTION
TowerGate Premium unlocks device-wide DNS filtering and premium playback features, including Picture in Picture and background playback. A 3-day free trial may be available with an eligible subscription; availability, price, and terms are shown before purchase.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Video features depend on the website, its player, media restrictions, and iOS support. Picture in Picture, background playback, playback progress, and other controls may not work with every video.
Native DNS configuration is managed by iOS and may require a quick step in iPhone Settings.
