Now with the 27 update it stopped being as good. It used to block ads from game apps and that was the best part for me. It no longer does that and it seems kind of useless now ### 3/5 — was good… now idk *2026-09-23, version 1.8.4* this app was great but then a week or so ago doesn’t stop the ads in my music app anymore. it does block a lot of stuff especially in safari but it worked for that app for a long time and was the reason why I downloaded this one ### 4/5 — Amazing *2026-09-20, version 1.8.4* finally, a fully free AdBlock that actually works, the only reasons that i gave it 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because it sometimes doesn’t block ads for a FEW apps or websites (YouTube for example) and sometimes it can make SOME app act oddly or just lag a bit but other than that, its absolutely amazing, i highly recommend getting it if you want an AdBlocker without having to empty your pockets ### 4/5 — Great but one thing *2026-09-18, version 1.8.3* I started using to get ad free apps, it was working for a while, but now its not working at all ### 5/5 — Does the job *2026-09-02, version 1.8.2* I’m able to play games without having to watch a ad, over, and over again.

I’m hoping this is Something that gets resolved. ### 1/5 — love this ad blocker *2026-06-14, version 1.6.0* # Why I Love This Free Ad Blocker and Recommend It to Everyone I don't usually get excited about apps or browser extensions, but this free ad blocker is one of those rare things that completely changed my experience on the internet. Before I started using it, I honestly didn't realize how many ads I was dealing with every day. Ads were everywhere—on websites, videos, news articles, blogs, and even simple searches. I had gotten so used to closing pop-ups, waiting for pages to load, and accidentally clicking advertisements that I thought it was just a normal part of using the internet. Then I installed this free ad blocker, and everything changed. The first thing I noticed was how much cleaner websites looked. Instead of being surrounded by banners, flashing promotions, autoplay videos, and giant pop-ups asking me to subscribe to something, I could actually focus on the content I wanted to see. Articles became easier to read. Search results became less cluttered. Websites felt simpler and more enjoyable. Another reason I love this ad blocker is because it makes browsing feel faster. Many websites load numerous advertisements, tracking scripts, and promotional content in the background. With those distractions blocked, pages often load more quickly and smoothly. It feels like the internet runs better. Whether I'm reading articles, researching something for school, watching videos, or just casually browsing, everything feels more efficient. One of my favorite things about this ad blocker is how it reduces distractions. The internet already has enough things competing for attention. Without constant advertisements popping up, flashing, or trying to get me to click on them, I can actually focus on what I'm doing. If I'm reading a story, I can stay immersed in it. If I'm watching a video, I can enjoy it without interruptions. If I'm studying, I can concentrate on the information instead of getting distracted by random products being advertised to me. I also appreciate how easy it is to use. Some software can be confusing or require lots of setup, but this ad blocker works in the background and doesn't demand constant attention. Once it's installed, it just quietly does its job. I don't have to think about it. It makes my online experience better every day without creating extra work for me. Another major benefit is that it helps make the internet feel less annoying. There are few things more frustrating than opening a website and immediately being hit with multiple pop-ups, notification requests, newsletter signups, cookie banners, and advertisements all at once. This ad blocker helps eliminate much of that frustration and allows me to get straight to the content I actually wanted to see. I also think it's great that it's free. There are many tools and services that charge monthly subscriptions, but this ad blocker provides a huge improvement to my browsing experience without costing anything. That's one of the reasons I recommend it so often. It's hard to argue with something that is effective, easy to use, and free. Whenever friends or family complain about annoying ads, slow websites, or constant pop-ups, this is usually the first thing I suggest. Most people don't realize how much better their browsing experience can be until they try an ad blocker for themselves. After using one for a while, it's honestly difficult to imagine going back. What impresses me most is that such a simple tool can make such a big difference. It doesn't add flashy features or completely reinvent the internet. Instead, it removes problems that shouldn't be there in the first place. By getting rid of unnecessary distractions, it allows the web to feel cleaner, faster, and more enjoyable. At this point, I consider it one of the most useful things I've ever installed on my device. It improves nearly every website I visit, saves me time, reduces distractions, and makes browsing more comfortable. Whether someone spends a few minutes online each day or several hours, I genuinely think they would notice the difference. That's why I recommend this free ad blocker to everyone. It's simple, effective, easy to use, and completely transforms the online experience for the better. Once you've used it, you'll probably wonder how you ever browsed the internet without it. ### 1/5 — Dubios *2026-05-30* Echt jetzt? Ein Add Blocker der die Nutzerdaten an Werbekunden verkaufen will. Deswegen habe ich die Installation abgebrochen als ich dem Kleingedruckten zustimmen sollte. ### 1/5 — つい数ヶ月前から *2026-05-25* アプリ、ブラウザ、何をするにも挙動がおかしくなり、オンにしている間のブラウザと特定のアプリの起動時に一切の通信をしてくれなくなるようになりました。 最初は自分のiPhone側か、ネットワーク環境のせいかと思っていました。再起動を何度も試し、機内モードのオンオフをしても変わりません。 でもこちらのvpnをオフにすると全部通信環境もよくなりすぐにアプリや検索も立ち上がるようになりました。 どうにかなりませんか。ありえないほど便利でお世話になっていたので困っておりアンインストール検討しています。 ### 1/5 — amazing!! *2026-05-16, version 1.6.0* this works super well for games + apps that have pop ups with websites, it's easy to use and worth the buy! ### 1/5 — trash *2026-05-11, version 1.5.0* keeps glitching out my phone and doesn’t want to work ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-05-11, version 1.5.0* It’s not working for me anymore, I click on the button and it turns off my internet but doesn’t actually turn it on? If I can explain right. But it’s not working for me and I tried restarting my network, but like I said not working. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Genuinely works *2026-10-19, version 1.8.5* So happy it actually works but you have to keep the tab open for it to work (not mad abt that) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-10-16, version 1.8.5* It works perfectly for apps but not for *illegal* websites ### 5/5 — Perfection. *2026-10-08, version 1.8.5* The app lives up to its name, nothing much to ask for. ### 5/5 — iOS 27で広告ブロックが効かなくなる問題への対処方法 *2026-10-04* iOS 27にアップグレード後、広告ブロック機能が効かなくなった場合、以下の方法で解決できる可能性が高い。 1. 「設定」アプリを開き、「Wi-Fi」をタップする。 2. 「接続アシスト」をOFFにする。 3. 接続しているWi-Fiネットワークの横にある「ⓘ」マークをタップし、そちらの画面に「接続アシストを使用」のスイッチがあればOFFにする。 4. iPhoneの電源を一度完全に切り、10秒以上あけてから再起動する。 iOS 27で広告ブロックが効かなくなる問題は、デフォルトで有効化された「接続アシスト」機能が原因。 Wi-Fi接続時に失敗した通信や広告リクエストを、接続アシストが自動的にモバイル通信 (セルラー) 回線でリトライしてしまうため、広告ブロックがバイパスされてしまう。 ### 5/5 — It works！ *2026-10-03, version 1.8.5* Good app，works.Cute puppy ### 5/5 — THANK YOUUUUUUU *2026-09-30, version 1.8.5* THIS IS THE BEST ADBLOCKER EVER ### 5/5 — iOS 27への対処法 *2026-09-22* iOS 27にアップグレード後、広告ブロック機能が効かなくなった場合、以下の方法で解決できる可能性が高い。 1. 「設定」アプリを開き、「Wi-Fi」をタップする。 2. 「接続アシスト」をOFFにする。 3. 接続しているWi-Fiネットワークの横にある「ⓘ」マークをタップし、そちらの画面に「接続アシストを使用」のスイッチがあればOFFにする。 4. iPhoneの電源を一度完全に切り、10秒以上あけてから再起動する。 iOS 27で広告ブロックが効かなくなる問題は、デフォルトで有効化された「接続アシスト」機能が原因。 Wi-Fi接続時に失敗した通信や広告リクエストを、接続アシストが自動的にモバイル通信 (セルラー) 回線でリトライしてしまうため、広告ブロックがバイパスされてしまう。 ### 5/5 — So far no issues *2026-09-19, version 1.8.4* It’s been working as advertised and blocking ads on apps without issue for me so far. No tricks or issues yet, will change if something major comes up. ### 5/5 — Nn *2026-09-17, version 1.8.3* Too good it really help ### 5/5 — Best Adblock on mobile I’ve ever used!! *2026-09-10, version 1.8.2* So easy to use and works with all games I have, literally peak!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
