It is awesome!

What a great app! Fast and simple to use.

The only thing, I’m using the bolt+ dns, which also work great, but since it is grabbing all dns traffic without any exceptions, my home network domain urls are never resolved.

Can you please add some kind of exception list or split-dns? It would be awesome.

Keep up the good work!

Works pretty well

The premium version just uses publicly available dns servers, but in saying that, it does it in a way that works better than simple dns profiles. I don’t get the dns failures that I’d get using a profile - so over all useful.

Bolt+ is great! but blocks internet on encrypted dns network

Bolt+ is really working perfectly anywhere!

The only issue I’ve encountered is when I’m connecting to a wifi router with encrypted dns enabled, my iPhone cannot reach anything on the internet.

Is there a way to make it work?

Doesn’t work

100% this doesn’t work with Safari as I am playing block blasters I am being blasted with Temu advertisements that redirect me to Safari when I opened up my Safari I had 40 open tabs from Temu in 40 minutes. It’s a plain block plaster. I have removed block blaster and I will remove this as this is the most disgusting app that has worked ever This app needs to be reported to the the federal government as it is 100% the biggest scam going

It’s perfect

If you are looking for a good, reliable and free adblocker you have found it. It works perfectly on mobile.

You can test it on canyoublockit and youtube.

I can’t really tell if this works at all on my iphone 6s

It works with some effect over really nasty intruders, I’d say, after all, but, as for everything, same as the intruders are all about money, you can’t defend yourself against them without plus protections. Such intruders can also manipulate your life, so that you have money to live a life or protect yourself against them. Too much of a vicious circle, not a good life, but mr Luca Champoussin, you are a valuable and humane part of a very inhumane, impersonal and dystopian biotech finance specs takeover wars. I’d rather have the plus protections, as accounts we use most are joy-fair for such malicious attackers. Thanks for addressing my concern positively and not like a chatbot: the more millions a company makes, the more impossible they make contact and chatbot rules over. If that’s the future they aspire to make, I’m opting out gladly, but not without a fight. Thanks again.

Работает

Как ни странно, но отлично работает. Блокирует всю рекламу на страницах, в отличии более именитых блокировщиков, которые перестали свою функцию выполнять в крайнее время.

Response from developer

Hello NikMons, I’m sorry to hear that Bolt isn’t working on your device. There’s no reason it shouldn’t work as intended, so let’s check a few things together to make sure everything is set up properly. 1. Please update the filters directly from within the app, I've manually published an update. 2. Make sure Bolt is enabled in your device's Settings, not just in Safari itself. After activation, the filters might take a couple of minutes to start working, especially on older devices, but they should effectively block ads afterward. If these steps resolve the issue, I’d be grateful if you could consider updating your rating. If not, feel free to reach out directly at bolt@c9n.fr, and I’d be happy to help you further! Best regards, ————— Здравствуйте, NikMons! Мне жаль слышать, что Bolt не работает на вашем устройстве. Нет причин, по которым приложение не должно работать должным образом, поэтому давайте вместе проверим несколько моментов, чтобы убедиться, что всё настроено правильно. 1. Обновите фильтры прямо в приложении — я вручную опубликовал обновление. 2. Убедитесь, что Bolt включён в настройках вашего устройства, а не только в самом Safari. После активации фильтрам может понадобиться несколько минут, чтобы начать работать, особенно на старых устройствах, но затем они должны эффективно блокировать рекламу. Если эти шаги помогут решить проблему, я был бы признателен, если бы вы могли обновить свою оценку. Если же проблема останется, напишите мне на bolt@c9n.fr, и я с радостью помогу вам дальше! С уважением,
