Description

• Available on all your devices, on iOS, iPad and macOS • When visiting a website, a person usually leaves a lot of information about himself. And without any measures on the part of the site owner, these personal data may be stolen. If you do not want something of the sort to happen, consider accessing all sites via the HTTPS technology. HTTPS Only is a Safari extension that protects your browsing activity by automatically enabling the HTTPS protocol on all websites that you visit. By loading the HTTPS version of websites into your browser, all your traffic will be encrypted, reliable and surveillance free. Although major websites already encrypt the traffic by using HTTPS, it’s not guaranteed that you use this technology - sometimes is not active by default or some embedded assets are loaded through the default and unencrypted HTTP connections. Also, clicking links can redirect you to the insecure versions of sites. Actually more than 75% of websites out there still rely on unencrypted HTTP communications. The HTTPS Only extension will fix these problems by rewriting all your requests from HTTP to HTTPS. It will also make sure that the assets from the visited websites (images, styles, scripts or ads) are transferred via the safe HTTPS and no one can steal your cookies, passwords, sessions or private data. • What is the HTTPS protocol and why should you care? • Did you know that browsing the web in a coffee shop, airport or hotel with free internet access can be dangerous? Even your own home or company internet connection is not safe. This is because the common HTTP web traffic can be intercepted in clear text, inspected and even modified by anyone. HTTPS has significantly more secure since this protocol will encrypt your communications. • The benefits of the HTTPS protocol and why should you use it? • - Faster page loading: data sent over HTTPS loads faster since the new HTTP/2 protocol is available in Safari only on encrypted communications - Confidentiality: no one can read your content, passwords or messages - Integrity: your traffic cannot be modified - for example, no key-loggers can be injected - Authentication: your site cannot be routed to a clone without you knowing it • Is this a VPN service? • No, this extension is not a VPN service, but is very efficient and safe as a VPN. This extension will make sure you are using only HTTPS in your surfing and the usage of HTTPS will make your traffic encrypted, reliable and surveillance free. Also, HTTPS is much faster than a VPN and can protect you even if the VPN is logging your activity. • Support • We read your support emails every day, day by day. Write with confidence any question, feedback or complaint and you will receive an answer in a very short period of time.

    I bought this app becouse of it's description. But I CAN NOT activate the extension in Safari! I'm runing the latest Catalina version. I hope the developer is going to fix that soon. Update: The developer contacted me but he was not able to fix the problem. Instead he offered to asked for a refund. I will not ask for a refund because I think the idea behind the app is great and hope for a update.
  • Great alternative to Https everywhere

    If you are looking for an extension that works like https everywhere, this is a good one. I have been using it on my mac and iphone and it works great. It redirects all insecure websites to a secure version of them. Also, you can control the options on how it works for all or a single site. If you have problem accesing a site that is using an insecure http protocol only, you can deactivate the extension for that particular site from the extension manager. I like this extension very much because it does what it has to do. Keep me in the secure side of the web site and block any insecure http connection. It si not a vpn, but works fine with any of them.
  • It blocked too much

    ESPN would not load. Ancestry would not load. But worse, Skype for Business Performance suffered. I removed HTTPS Everywhere and had to delete and reload Skype for Business so it would load and work correctly.
