Spinning Blocker -β- Block loading animation by GunmaSoft

This is a niche blocker designed to block loading animations, icons, and similar elements across almost any website! It specializes specifically in handling loading-related visuals.

We invite you to give it a try.

【Functions】
It effectively removes elements such as spinning circles, progress bars at the top of the screen, and animated semi-transparent overlays in text fields.
No registration or login is required.
It also supports the "thinking" icons (often a squishing/pulsing shape) displayed by AI services.

【Features】
・Simple UI Design: The interface avoids trendy but distracting animated UI elements that could hinder browsing, opting instead for a clean, simple design and standard imagery.

・No Ad Blocking: A clean, focused tool. Logically, it can be used even on sites that block standard ad blockers. (Note: Compatibility depends on site structure and terms of service.)

・ON/OFF Toggle: For sites where it might not function correctly, you can pin the extension to the top right of your browser to toggle it ON or OFF for specific sites. Please refresh the page after changing the setting.

Beta version released in 2026—please feel free to make use of its features.
While there are still some sites it cannot block, it aims to reduce these distractions as much as possible.

【How to Use】
When you open a new standard webpage, a pop-up displaying the Terms of Service will appear. Click the "Agree" button and then refresh the page.
The software will then automatically begin blocking the elements.

【Recommended Use Cases】
・When you want to work efficiently with deep focus or foster your creativity without distractions.

・For those who had previously given up on efficient computer use or working on a PC due to the frustration of spinners and other animations—create a refined, stress-free viewing environment.・For those seeking a quiet, calm internet environment free from distractions

・For those who prefer a clean, uncluttered, and natural web experience

・Suitable for users of all ages—ideal if you wish to avoid exposing children to certain types of icons.

【Development Philosophy】
Motivated by a desire to improve internet efficiency.
We aim to eliminate web inefficiencies and information disparities for users, contributing to better universal design on the web.

We want users to have the freedom to customize their browser display using this extension.

【Target & Details】
This blocker targets elements that were previously difficult for major blockers to handle—specifically, the animated videos and images used for auto-playing loading icons—effectively filtering, detecting, and removing them.
It also removes elements that are designed to remain visible for a set duration, even after the actual process has completed.Loading: It effectively blocks content that loads mid-page (e.g., via clicks).

It is not limited to specific websites.
It targets standard web pages for blocking.
Note: The extension does not function on settings pages, extension store pages, or external PDFs.
Feature details: Current behavior takes precedence; the actual on-screen operation is the definitive guide.

【Connection Speed】
The actual download time itself does not become faster.

【Note】
The extension's icon depicts a blade of grass.
This reflects the concept of embracing a more natural feel.
