Here's my feedback

GOODS
1. has potential, is a content blocker (YES, i want content blockers, NOT extension because those require more permissions to be given) however there are some parts that need fixing
2. becoming a supporter doesn't give you extra perks (meaning it's a free-to-use app, and you can choose to support them if you want which is good)
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1. report problems button doesn't work so the only way I can express what is good and what is bad is through reviews
2. Please add a blacklist too so if there's specific links that I want to block or specific cookies I want to block then I could block em if I want
Overall, I can see there's potential in this app. Please don't be discouraged :D

Works wonderfully !

Whenever someone complains about ads, I turn them onto Sanitize and the complaints stop. It works well and allows me to enjoy content without interruption or ad pollution. Lumcheesal-Georgia

FAQ

What does Sanitize do?

Sanitize is a mobile ad blocker designed to improve your web browsing experience. It effectively blocks a wide range of online annoyances, including advertisements, tracking scripts, pop-ups, and social media sharing buttons from the websites you visit.

How does this app save mobile data?

By preventing ads from loading, this app significantly reduces the amount of data consumed during browsing. Large ad images and scripts are blocked before they can be downloaded, leaving you with more of your monthly data allowance.

Is this app free to use?

The application is available for free, but it does offer in-app purchases. This allows users to enhance their experience or unlock additional features beyond the core ad-blocking functionality.

Can I choose which websites to see ads on?

Yes, the app provides full custom whitelist support. This feature allows you to specifically choose which websites you want to allow ads on, enabling you to support your favorite independent blogs and websites while still blocking ads elsewhere.

What kind of ads can I choose to allow?

You have the option to whitelist specific ad networks that serve small, unobtrusive ads. This allows you to support independent content creators by allowing ads from networks that adhere to higher quality standards, while still blocking more intrusive advertisements.
