Epic fail..

Doesn't work at all
GGaretjax1

iOS 27 stopped working

Well, it was a great run. I liked this app for its simplicity and not having to rely on third-party services. However, it hasn’t been updated for 5+ years. As far as I can tell on iOS 27, it has stopped working entirely, even though it appears to still be functioning…it just isn’t blocking anything. I’m going to try NextDNS instead.

Quality Has Tanked

This used to be a 10/10 service that worked for 99% of my needs. After the iOS 27 update it appears to only block a portion of the ad pop ups from apps. The “contact support” button in the app doesn’t work either.

Good while it lasted

Worked great for about a week then stopped working all together. It still turns on, but it doesn’t block anything anymore.
