Amazing ad blocking
Ezra Denny
I don’t have much else to say, besides the fact that you can block all ads pretty much from any app or game... it’s so useful. Can’t get much better. Oh and by the way you can customize what you block?
Still doesn’t block ads within iOS apps

Still having issues with economist app. NyT seems to get blocked.
Curious update...

I love the potential of this app but the latest update added some worrisome issues, such as disabling the dns filter every time you add a domain to the block list. Not good for people fighting spyware. Second, this update added a mobile api request every few minutes chock full of malware and spyware and Trojan downloaders, some of which have already been traced back to some pretty widespread malicious networks. A lot of stalking victims rely on this app. Do better, fellas.
Ads!!!
Oasis x7
In app ads are get out of hand! it would be nice if you could block at least some of them again.
Crippled?
AppleNoser
Remember upgrades no longer have system wide ad blocking due to Apple restrictions. Until and if this changes I will not be upgrading.
Works great! 10/10

After a couple updates, I’m updating this review. The UI is overall better, though some things are more obscure now, such as what filter lists are enabled, exactly. I have a feeling certain websites are making small changes to the URLs of certain ads loaded because sometimes content blocker will catch a whole set of ads on one page of a website, but I’ll go to page 2 and ads appear in all the same spots. I’ll have to read up on the syntax and see if I can make more generic rules, or just live with it. Full tunnel without VPN icon is working well, I haven’t had to open the app at all to fix it.
Still the best, and you MUST “Read the Fine Manual”

AdGuard is probably the most powerful Ad and Tracker blocker in the AppStore. But because of that you MUST and I can’t stress this enough, MUST read the documentation and dig into the App. If you really care about your privacy you’ll put the time in and send bugs to the devs. They may not answer but the (minor) bugs get fixed. People complaining that “sometimes the blocking doesn’t work” (limits of apps on iOS) “they crippled it” (no they didn’t, they fought Apple not to) or “it doesn’t work with my VPN” (dass RITE, did you go to Github and look at the list of compatible ones?) are all solved by “reading the fine manual.” HINT: Language filters can’t be added, as they go in Basic and go over Safari’s 50K item limit. What do? Add them MANUALLY to “Other” or “Custom” and get protection. Inferred from “RTFM.” See? There’s a reason this app has 5 stars. This app will secure your devices (macOS, Android as well) in ways that Apple won’t. Throw money at these devs, there aren’t many like them in the AppStore.
Holy crapola

Latest update causes constant reload of webpages and made some apps useless when adguard is turned on.FMFL!
Why Change the GUI?
BundlingSucks
So speed is enhanced, but why change the Graphic User Interface? There used to be a nice, clear list of Standard AND encrypted Servers, also notating their location (Country or even City & State for some). It took me a day to find an encrypted server — I gave my data to the world in the interim... I can’t find a tutorial, though one was there after the “update” — Seems every time I choose an update, I loose both security and functionality — I wish I would have not taken the update that had Apple’s new 1984 restrictions earlier in 2020, not sure if I should have taken this one... At least it seems faster... Hope it continues and the “skin” is improved for functionality. Thank you for caring about privacy, though...
