Not worth it. ### 1/5 — Crap!!! *2023-07-18, version 2.23.0* This is another example of a Orphan App, hasn’t been updated in over 6 years! Dumping this crap now! ### 1/5 — does nothing at all *2023-07-05, version 2.23.0* nothing ### 1/5 — I agree with the other reviews *2023-04-25, version 2.23.0* Total waste of time.

Deleted. ### 1/5 — Useless! *2023-04-01, version 2.23.0* Paid £3 (donation) Doesn’t block ads on YouTube, news apps or even information pages. Waste of money, should have heeded the other one star reviewers… ### 1/5 — doesn't work for me *2023-03-11, version 2.23.0* I enabled it as shown and I'm still getting ads. Number 1 place I didn't want to see ads anymore was Facebook... I'm definitely still seeing ads on Facebook. I'm still seeing ads in chrome. I don't use safari so I don't know if that still has ads. ### 2/5 — Adblocker Ultimate *2023-02-03, version 2.23.0* I downloaded this app, followed the instructions and installed it on my iPhone XR. It told me I would be add - free. I went to You Tube, selected a video and it proceeded to start with ads. This did not work for me, unfortunately. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — i hate it *2026-05-07, version 3.0.0* it does not work ### 1/5 — Worthless *2025-11-16, version 2.23.0* Doesn’t block a single add in FB ### 1/5 — I DOSE NOT WORK *2025-04-04, version 2.23.0* I tried it and it does not work I need a good ad blocker but this just let down do not get! ### 1/5 — Not for macOS *2025-01-24, version 2.23.0* As other reviewer states, the app opens but never finishes loading filter for Safari. ### 1/5 — Pure junk doesn’t block facebook or YouTube *2024-12-30, version 2.23.0* Junk straight up ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work in Safari *2024-12-26, version 2.23.0* This app added more pop up ads in Safari nor did it prevent re-directs, so disappointing. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t not work anymore. *2024-12-05, version 2.23.0* Not only does this not block YouTube ads.

I contacted support, along with including a screen grab of the error. Tumbleweeds. No word back what so ever. It’s been at least a week.

From the moment you install and enable it, the difference is night and day. The most impressive aspect is its comprehensive blocking capability. Unlike some ad blockers that still allow certain "acceptable" ads or fail to catch all types of intrusions, AdBlocker Ultimate lives up to its name by effectively eliminating all forms of advertisements. This includes those pesky pop-ups that interrupt your reading, the auto-playing video ads that drain your data, and even the embedded banners that clutter websites. The immediate benefit is a much cleaner and more streamlined web experience. Websites load faster because your device isn't wasting resources on downloading and displaying numerous ads. This not only saves you time but also contributes to lower data usage, which is particularly beneficial if you have a limited mobile data plan. Beyond just aesthetics and convenience, AdBlocker Ultimate also plays a crucial role in enhancing your privacy and security. By blocking trackers, it prevents advertisers from following your online activity and collecting your personal data. Additionally, it effectively blocks malicious domains known to spread malware, providing an extra layer of protection against online threats. Setting up AdBlocker Ultimate on iOS is incredibly straightforward. Once downloaded from the App Store, it integrates seamlessly with Safari through the Content Blocker settings. You simply need to enable it, and it works quietly in the background, ensuring an ad-free browsing environment without requiring constant attention or tweaking. For users who wish for more control, the app also offers options for creating custom filters and whitelisting specific websites where you might want to support the content creators by allowing ads. In conclusion, AdBlocker Ultimate for iOS is a robust, reliable, and user-friendly solution for anyone seeking to eliminate the annoyance and potential risks associated with online advertising. It delivers on its promise of an ad-free experience, contributing to faster browsing speeds, reduced data consumption, improved privacy, and enhanced security on your iPhone and iPad. If you're tired of intrusive ads disrupting your mobile web browsing, AdBlocker Ultimate is an indispensable tool that is well worth installing. ### 5/5 — Çok başarılı *2024-07-25, version 2.23.0* Gerçekten çok iyi çalışıyor.
