Ad Blocker.
I love this app, it’s awesome!! I have had no problems with this app. It updates automatically and blocks ads like crazy. I recommend this app to anyone who wants and needs to block ads on there phone. If there is a problem with the app, the developers will fix it immediately without any hesitation. They update the app constantly so that the end user will not have problems. On a scale of one to ten, it’s a twelve!!! Thank for this ad Blocker and keep improving on it.

Works fine
Of course advertisers find ways around these things but it does work. (And of course someone's paid for those 1-star reviews.)
My only gripes are that I don't know how well this works as the ads are just gone, and they fact it hides Apple's keynote videos.

Terrific!
A great app - have it installed on 2 iPads and 2 phones and it seems to work really well. I like the interface and ease of use, the white list is good if you want to let some things through. Not sure why some people appear to be having issues with it - for me it's perfect.
It Does Work
I read a few negative reviews but this works for me. Pages load so much faster after I enabled script blocking.
Works great
Blocks ads and haven't had any trouble browsing any sites
Don't get duped
Seriously doesn't do a thing. All the adds still come through.
Great! Blocks Sponsored Links
Blocks everything and has a whitelist. This is my current favorite.

Don't Waste Your Money…Too Many Bugs!
This app breaks the basic functionality of too many websites that function perfectly with other content blockers. I experimentally tried whitelisting the images and scripts on one of those sites (it didn't work), and discovered another serious bug—once a site is added to the whitelist, there appears to be no means to delete it from said list. Using the "Restore Default Configuration" button does not remove it; neither does deleting and reinstalling the entire app. I have permanently uninstalled Silentium from my iPad and will be requesting a refund from Apple.

Most Consistent
This app has been great from the moment I installed it. The interface is simple, but works as advertised and I haven't had any complaints at all. I've tried multiple ad blockers and this has been the best one of them all. The recent update to the app which enables remote updating was a great and handy feature. Keep up the great work!

Excellent Support and Great Features!
The developer of this app is very responsive and committed to improve this already great content blocker. This developer deserves your support.
It has a great UI and lots of useful features, including customized whitelisting. It blocks sponsored ads as well. Wonderful and well done app!

Works 99% of the time
Like the title says, it works great 99% of the time, but sometimes it blocks flash ran photos that are part of a website, that I am assuming the blocker thinks are ads. It happens but is rare. I would buy again.
Works well
Tried a free ad blocker that did not seem to do much. This one was listed in Appadvice and definitely works for me. The searching speed is really quick and the lack of annoying advertisements is well worth the few dollars.
Great
Up to now, great ad blocker. No problems to report. Will update if any.
It works !!
I especially like the no social widget feature.
