Reviews of AdBlock

  • Works like a charm for me...

    This app has been serving me well for years. I was surprised to see a number of people are having problems, it may be because the app can a bit complicated if you're not used to it. I use both the Safari content blocker and the DNS proxy, and they use separate rulesets. Be sure to both enable filtering and toggle on the lists or rule sets that you want enabled. Also, I would suggest enabling DNS logging as you might see some additional URLs that you want to block. The app makes it easy to create a new rule from the log, so take a vantage of it. This has been handling both app advertisements and Safari webpage irritations well for me.
  • Works great if you can follow instructions

    I swear the reviews on this app are either five stars or one stars. All of the five star people clearly follow the instructions correctly and got it working for them like it should, and conversely, all of the compute illiterate have done something wrong, or aren’t used to configurations and vpns.

    One of the reviews that shows up in the “most helpful“ category literally says that they are a technophobe and that it should be as simple as downloading the app if it is truly made for iOS.

    Look, it’s not that simple, but it is pretty straightforward and the results are great. I turned it off recently, and was horrified with the amount of ads that show up on mobile sites. Also, it works for most in app as well.. They were some apps that I didn’t even know had them until it turned it off.

    The only thing you need to be aware of is that some apps play ads to give you “credits” (many of the free AI apps do this) and it seems to break that functionality. So I guess you can turn it off when you absolutely have to use an app with ads. Lastly, I am hoping this app is not abandoned. It is the only systemwide ad blocker that has worked for me and the last update was two years ago. It still works as it is right now, but eventually may become outdated.

    So download away people, it’s only a couple bucks and it is totally worth it.
  • The best mobile ad blocker

    Works like a charm! I have over 14,000 ad domains blocked, this app handles even that many domains at once perfectly. Ads are now just completely gone from my phone, from apps that would normally have them in-app to the web. This app is also extremely advanced and versatile and can be used as a domain re-routing tool in addition to just a simple ad blocker as you can route any domain to any IP. I can also use this blocker service alongside my VPN, so it doesn't even prevent me from using a real VPN alongside its own VPN profile. The DNS log also means that if new ad domains spring up I can identify where the ads are coming from and then add them to the blacklist. Even has iCloud sync for your filter rules. This is the most powerful ad-blocking tool I have ever seen on iOS and is absolutely worth getting. Unironically 10/10 would recommend.
