Blocking banners reliably on modern websites is still a hard problem. Many websites render cookie prompts late, inject overlays after page load, or use DOM structures that are harder to handle with generic heuristics alone.

We shipped another round of improvements to make rendering more reliable on difficult websites.

This update includes:

  • stronger popup and cookie handling on websites with complex animations and UI;
  • safer banner-blocking heuristics for specific hosts to reduce false positives;
  • custom handling for websites where cookie banners are rendered in more complex or shadow-DOM-based structures;
  • additional stealth improvements.

The result is cleaner screenshots and fewer cases where banners and popups interfere with the final render.

If you notice a website where blockers still slip through, please send an example to support@screenshotone.com.
