But, i have a few bugs which is making my experience slightly agitating. I had my VPN on, but it automatically Disconnects.every, single, time. I turn it on, it decides its too lazy. The ad blocker doesnt do much either. I turned it on, and it decided it was bored within five hours . Im not sure if it’s because of a website i visited without the VPN, it could be because i haven’t logged in yet, ( im on mobile if an developer or such reads this) however this should be accessible with or without the log in. also randomly decided for google ti randomly delete itself from my browser.whenever i search something, try to use youtube, ect ect, it just shows a blank white screen with the default google tab.Thanks! Im hoping this will be fixed soon. ### 2/5 — Good then bad *2026-08-26, version 6.6.2* I had this since last year, it did its job and blocked ads. Now I can’t search anything?
