Simple adblocker that has nothing to do with adguard, just in name. No settings and you cant add adguard account.
So far, it's good. It blocks many of the annoying youtube video ads that plague the browsing experience. I hope this remains in the base version and that it will not turn into a feature that gets locked behind a paywall. Really, depending on your budget you may pay for the premium version which will definitely block more annoying video ads.
This app has improved over the years I've been using it. It does great blocking ads and is easy to use. There are a few things to note though.
This is the only browser I have found that will actually block the ads before, during, and after YouTube videos. I want the videos to be full screen. When you scroll down the page, tap on a video to play. It will open in a boxed page framing the video, but much of the page isn't even showing. Don't panic, just move the box up until you see the full-screen icon on the lower right. Tap on the icon to make the video full-screen.
When you run the app, setup everything you want enabled, and then restart your phone; you'll get a solid experience when you start to notice that your phones battery can last a whole day on a single charge while running Adguard in the background 24/7. This means it's incredibly lightweight & doesn't boggle down the performance of your phone with no compensation for either & it does a very good job of preventing ads. Especially in games. Though if you have this on, you'll block video ads, etc.
