AdGuard AdBlocker
Description from store

AdGuard ad blocker effectively blocks all types of ads on all web pages, even on Facebook, YouTube and others!

What AdGuard ad blocker does:

• Blocks all ads: video ads (includes YouTube adblock), rich media advertising, unwanted pop-ups, banners and text ads (includes Facebook adblock)
• Speeds up page loading and saves bandwidth, thanks to the missing ads and pop-up windows
• Protects your privacy by blocking common third-party tracking systems
• Blocks many spyware, adware, and dialer installers
• Protects you from malware and phishing

What are the advantages of AdGuard over Adblock or Adblock Plus?

• AdGuard ad blocker is really fast and lightweight. It uses half as much memory as other popular solutions: Adblock, Adblock Plus, and even outperforms uBlock Adblocker in some tests
• AdGuard can handle most of the adblock circumvention scripts
• AdGuard is simply better looking and modern (in our opinion)

How can AdGuard ad blocker protect your privacy?

Privacy protection is one of the main goals! Just enable the "AdGuard Tracking Protection filter" in AdGuard settings. It completely removes all forms of tracking from the Internet. AdGuard has one of the largest tracker filter lists containing more than 10,000 rules. It is even larger than the databases of Ghostery® and Disconnect.

How to remove social media widgets with AdGuard?

Tired of all the “Like” buttons and similar widgets infesting all of your frequented web pages? Just enable AdGuard "Social media filter" and forget about them.

How can AdGuard ad blocker protect you from online threats?

At the moment we’ve got more than 2,000,000 harmful websites on record. AdGuard can block domains known to spread malware, protecting your computer against viruses, Trojan horses, worms, spyware, and adware. AdGuard really lowers the risk of virus infections and prohibits access to harmful websites to prevent potential attacks.

Crypto-jacking protection

We did comprehensive research on crypto-jacking and, as a result, AdGuard can reliably block most of the known crypto-jackers including CoinHive. You can also add some open source filters like NoCoin which will give you an additional layer of protection.

Why does AdGuard require permissions?

"Access your data for all websites" and "Access browser tabs": both permissions are necessary for AdGuard to apply all kinds of cosmetic processing to the pages' content. Naive ad blocking would simply block ad servers, and leave broken elements and first-party ads on the pages. AdGuard applies special cosmetic rules to make pages look clean and tidy.

"Access browser activity during navigation": this permission is necessary to keep track of navigation events in order to apply rules when the time is right.

As of a few days ago blocking ads forces stream quality to be set to 160p even after the blocking is done.

It seems Facebook did something and now AdGuard won't block the Sponsored ad at the top right. May I know is there any setting that I need to adjust or the dev will update the version to "resolve" this issue? Thanks

Finally broke down and grabbed a blocker - I'm okay-ISH with ads when stuff is free, I'm willing to sit through it for a service but I swear the YT ads are so unbelievably frequent and obnoxious. I don't need THE SAME ad literally every 5-10 minutes over and over and over, it's incredibly distracting. If you won't be reasonable with ads then I won't watch them.
Joe Landeros
it USED to be good but somehow it stopped working for me and ALL of the ads are back.

the best app for protecting your data or anything like that
Elyse Rodriguez
Great! No problems with it!!

Best ad-blocker so far!

this might honestly be the best and most versatile any adblocker can get, you can basically customize everything just from the extension, and you can even use their private dns server without installing anything, on basically any device, i'd highly recommend using adguard adblocker, ive been using it for years and it works like a charm.

In my case. I can't use it. I'm using uBlock Origin instead as it's still updated. And this is why I can't use it. There's an annoying pop up message from Adguard each time I visit a website: "The browser has modified the list of active filters. The limit of active built-in rules was exceeded after an update or adding a new extension. As per Manifest V3, your Chrome browser reacted by disabling all the extension's built-in filters except the default ones. "Rule limit exceeded in AdGuard Browser Extension. Please check your filters and disable the ones you don't need" — MV3 script limitation". Below is what has been automatically disabled by Adguard: Online Malicious URL Blocklist Phishing URL Blocklist Scam Blocklist by DurableNapkin uBlock Origin – Badware risks Dandelion Sprout's Anti-Malware List Adguard wants me to pay for the app and says: "Install the AdGuard Ad Blocker app: it has no restrictions on filtering rules. Get the AdGuard app". Extension is uninstalled. I'll probably switch to another browser once uBlock stops being updated.

Umm. No. I imagine those who are giving this extension high praises are the ones who have everything set at default (minimal). In my case. I can't use it.

It's very worst in some times. The Comet browser is the Best built-in ad blocker.
Dilip Choudhary
its work perfectly fine and save lots of time
Alex Jones
Best adblocker in my opinion, but the Chrome extension has an issue with clogging space on my SSD. I checked why my Chrome folder was 7GB and 4GBs of that were different versions of the AdGuard extension.

Really love this ad blocker, I personally find it better than UBOL even
Kate Walker
Was just fine until they capitulated to Google and removed all the filters. Now completely useless and clearly a grift to get you to buy their Windows app. Disappointing.

I often have to reload the page to stop an ad from showing up or because Youtube says "The video is not available" Other than that. Great ad blocker.
Attiya Tul Hayee
Bro, I love Adguard. Have installed it on each of my devices. I was fed up with youtube ads and now I am very happy. I was also fed up with ads which come on these phishy "free movie"' websites where they redirect you to an ad every time you click a button. I just hope Adguard is secure and safe which I believe it to be.

The most efficient function for any browser user to access any website is undoubtedly the one that stands out as the best.
