Some websites are almost unreadable, seemingly going out of their way to get you to look at anything but the actual article you want to read. They’ll ask you to sign up for email newsletters, promote totally unrelated articles, start playing videos, flash advertisements and leap back to the top of the screen when you’re halfway through reading. But there’s a way of stopping all of this – it’s called Reader and as well as hiding adverts, it also removes navigation menus making for a cleaner reading experience. Used in combination with the ‘Block Pop-ups’ feature (in Settings>Safari), you can have a better browsing experience.
