- Rated 5 out of 5by RevolverX, 8 years agoWorks great. Switched over from Self destructing cookies since it will be obsolete soon.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11783868, 8 years agoCan you add a Blacklist? That means only sites in Blacklist get their cookies deleted. I already use uMatrix to control cookies, but cookies must be enabled on some sites for them to work correctly.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13234002, 8 years agoReplace my old SDC,
And now looking for Adblock Plus and Greasmonkey replacement. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13223523, 8 years agoWhat a relief. I was afraid there wouldn't be a replacement for SDC, but now I found it with C-AD. It works well so far. Hopefully support for FF for Android will be added soon.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Jordan, 8 years agoExcellent extension, easy to set up, do the job perfectly. It also works with firefox containers experimental feature!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Andrew Aylett, 8 years agoLooking for a replacement for Self-Destructing Cookies, and I'm hopeful I've found it :).
- Rated 5 out of 5by Howard R, 8 years agoI have a circular icon with a red box with a white X - Clicking on it does nothing - Sadly I see no option to access the settings - Clicking options on the extension page shows me updates. Hovering cursor over Cookie Autodelete icon does nothing (unlike other extensions) - I will definitely update this review if I can use the extension!

This should only happen if you are in private browsing mode.
>Clicking options on the extension page shows me updates.
You don't see the sidebar to switch tabs on the left side?
It is recommended to go here for issues since reviews don't allow for proper replying back and forth:
https://github.com/mrdokenny/Cookie-AutoDelete/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by Montgomery Minds, 8 years agoI would like to keep my bank's main cookies, but not the ads and trackers from that bank's website. Ie cookie-granularity whitelist/protect.
But, all in all, nice solution that does 90% of what I want.
Thanks!
UPDATE: Thanks for the quick response. I think I meant 3rd party Ad cookies from my bank websites, but honestly I am not sure. Regardless, after using this addon for 1 day, ALL my Ad tracking cookies are gone. I have only 17 domains of cookies right now--only open tabs and whitelisted sites. No Ad cookies. Maybe trackers from my bank from their own domain remain, I dont know.
But, still, does >=99% of what I want.
Upgrading to 5 stars.Developer response
posted 8 years agoDepends on the hostname of the ads and trackers.
You can turn off subdomain checking in the settings to enable more granularity, which is probably what you want. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13177532, 8 years agoThis is a very great WebExtension cookie manager for desktop, but please add support for Android! At the moment you can install this addon on mobile devices but you cannot access it's settings, you can't event turn on active mode!

The downside is you have to be using 56+ in order to access the settings. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12609462, 8 years agoGreat idea, my only suggestion so far it's the icon, I find distracting and intrusive the red colour that you chose as a notification. Ideally I'd like a color what matches with the adblock origin icon, I'd like to have them working together as a team!
Anyways, fantastic job and thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Wok, 8 years agoThis is this addon. A good replacement for SDC and Cookies Exterminator.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13058745, 8 years agoIt is nice to see a WebExtensions and e10s ready successor to SDC. As of today, the developer is prompt to get to issues on GitHub. Hopefully with time, it will match all the features of SDC and Beyond!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13101129, 8 years agogreat addon. i switching from self-destruction, and i like it. this addon dont clear my white list, support multiprocessing, so is better.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5621020, 8 years agoGreat Addon, with miltiprocess support. I am switching from Self-Destructing Cookies, because of this
- Rated 5 out of 5by Dr@g0n, 8 years agoPros:
- Works as expected.
- WebExtensions version
- Multiprocess e10s support
Cons:
No proper LocalStorage support in WebExtensions API so there is no LocalStorage cleanup for now.
Great job. Thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Tristan, 8 years agoThis add-on is essentially a WebExtension version of the Self Destructing Cookies add-on. Whitelist cookies you want, and the rest are deleted when they aren't being used! The only difference as of now is that the WebExtension API doesn't have proper LocalStorage support, so this add-on can't clear that yet.
Thank you SO much Kenny Do for doing this! You have no idea how much this means to me, and all the other 200,000+ users of SDC! I know a little JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS, and I was almost desperately trying to learn WebExtension so I could do a rewrite myself. I'm so glad someone smarter than me took the time to do this.
Thanks again! You're awesome!Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks buddy. It took me about 2 months even with leveraging some code of my other extension: History AutoDelete. So I'm happy that others appreciate my work. ;) - Rated 5 out of 5by noname, 8 years agoi like this add on a lot, but active mode 1 minute take too long, please can make its faster
Developer response
posted 8 years ago- The delay is in minutes because timers in Chrome are allowed to fire once per minute. This limitation doesn't exist with Firefox, so theoretically you could set a lower delay value by typing in .1 (which is 6 seconds) or even 0 for instant cleanup after tab close. Remember to save afterward! - Rated 5 out of 5by Taurean, 8 years agoAn excellent replacement for Self Destructing Cookies! I was worried about when it'd stop working.
Suggestion: Please implement an option in whitelist for subdomains. - Rated 5 out of 5by ondondil, 8 years agoFinally a good replacement for SDC that is compatible with WebExtensions. Thank you!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11620514, 8 years agoIt's a nice, light alternative to SDC, but the delay option should be in seconds not minutes.
