Ads keep hijacking your browser. Some sites hide real links and force your browser to open ads, jump pages, or launch ad apps. Full-screen popups block the page and trick you into tapping ad links. ZeroAds keeps you on the page. Turn it on and stay where you are. Tap an ad link? Nothing happens. No redirects, no forced app opens, no popups. Use Cases: • Read news without ad interruptions • Browse ad-heavy pages cleanly • View content on pages with hidden ad links • Watch videos or listen to music on pages that force-open new ads How to Use: 1. Browse normally — ZeroAds is a browser. Just open any page. By default, you can navigate freely from google.com. 2. Turn the shield on — Want to stay on a page and block ad navigation? Tap the shield to lock it. 3. Open a new page — Create a new tab or turn off the shield to navigate freely again.
