### 5/5 — Best blocker

*2022-12-04, version 2.6*

Best blocker with very little hassle

### 3/5 — Used to work a treat

*2022-07-22*

Used to be reliable for blocking ads in games, but now doesn’t seem to work any more.  Great while it lasted thanks

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-12-01, version 2.6*

I bought the app and tried to use it. Keep getting a pop up telling me I have to review the app to “continue using it for free” despite having paid for it. How can I review it if I can’t even access it?

### 1/5 — This hasn't downloaded properly

*2020-06-20*

I am going to ask for a refund as this hasn't downloaded properly and don't want to try again as I would have to pay again.

### 5/5 — Good App

*2020-06-03, version 2.6*

Can you clarify what are the advantages of going Pro?

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t let me use it unless I wrote a review!!!

*2020-04-06, version 2.6*

After 1 use it said that the app was free and to give it a review, I tried to put “maybe later” but it kept popping up. Very Annoying

### 1/5 — Paid 0.99 cents and says it was free!

*2020-03-15, version 2.6*

I bought it for 0.99 cents and says after 1 use...one! to continue using for free rate it. I very well would rather get my money back it that’s what is says. You need to update your app if you expect people to pay for it at all. And it tells to to pay 1.99 more to update it more? What is this? A $0.99 one time trial?! Are you kidding? Doesn't even work on all apps like Cast King. Which I bought it for.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2020-03-09, version 2.6*

I don't know how it does it, but it stops ads. Even in non-browser apps.

### 3/5 — Actually works

*2019-12-15*

This app is free and actually works it’s great

### 5/5 — Good

*2019-11-20, version 2.6*

Works to stop ads
