Description from store Adblock Plus is among the most popular and trusted free ad blockers with over 500 million downloads. A favorite ad blocker among users since 2006, Adblock Plus lets you block ads and enjoy a better browsing experience on YouTube and your other favorite sites. Looking for an alternative adblocker to uBlock Origin? We are and always will be Chrome-compatible with the latest MV3 updates. ➤ Download Adblock Plus and access these free ad-blocking features: ● Block annoying ads like pop-ups, video ads, and banners. ● Block third-party trackers and keep your information more private from advertisers. ● Reduce cyber fraud from malicious ads with viruses and phishing scams that compromise your device and target your accounts. ● Personalize your browsing by choosing what to block and what to allow. ● Enjoy free and responsive support from our team! ➤ Get more from your adblocker and take more control over your browsing experience when you upgrade to Premium: ● Block more than ads and say goodbye to auto-play videos that follow as you browse, newsletter pop-ups, survey requests, and more. ● Hide cookie banners and get where you’re going faster when you stop seeing those pesky pop-ups that ask you to accept cookies on sites. Adblock Plus functions as an adblock for YouTube and other sites the moment you install the extension allowing you to browse the web how you want. You can customize your settings once you install the extension, pin it to your toolbar, and open the menu. In some cases, ads may be displayed on YouTube or other sites. Learn more about blocking ads on YouTube: https://adblockplus.org/youtube. If you need to pause AdBlock Plus, open the extension and click ‘pause on this site’.

(2025-07-17) as of 7/16/25 it no longer works.
(2025-07-16) Used to be great, today I am enjoying the irony of the fact I'm about to uninstall AdBlock Plus because of how often it has started popping up intrusive ads to try and make me pay for its premium option...
(2025-07-16) I am giving this a 1 star because it definitely does not block ads on my laptop. I can't keep paying for something that does not perform as advertised.
(2025-07-16) Super annoying popups and opens tabs: Look hoe many ads we blocked - give us money! T-T I miss uBlock so much already... Now I deinstall AdblockPlus and look for something else - or I need to switch the browser after all...
(2025-07-16) Really good app better than most other adbock apps ive tried
(2025-07-16) Confusing as hell.... can't get game ad off bottom of screen
(2025-07-16) Has a bug for me where I can't allowlist any sites and when I turn it off (on youtube, for example) and refresh, it is back on.
(2025-07-15) Love it!
(2025-07-14) Just now trying this blocking program... disappointed with the results. It does NOT block ads on many game programs.
(2025-07-14) A very annoying bug. whenever an ad comes in youtube shorts, it tries to scroll away from ads instead of blocking the ad. and while scrolling, it doesn't update the function soon enough that the ad had been scrolled, so it keeps scrolling a few move shorts. also an observation, scroll stops at videos with low likes and views almost all the time. Gave a 1 star just for attention to this bug.
(2025-07-14) I paid for Adbblock Plus Premium, but the app shows that I'm using the free version. The process of upgrading is difficult to find. It sends a code, but even after putting in the code, it appears I'm still using the free version. It's very confusing.
(2025-07-14) works good but sometimes the ad block function bugs on youtube but otherwise it is perfect
(2025-07-14) I needed an alternative after uBlock was disabled and this works quite well, but I knew it would since I have used Adblock Plus before I ever tried uBlock. Have not encountered an ad so far.
(2025-07-14) This ad blocker blocks ads without YouTube stopping me from watching videos
(2025-07-13) they lair about free payed app
(2025-07-13) works on all sites and youtube
(2025-07-12) Randomly pops up it's own self promoting garbage
(2025-07-12) works for me and blocked youtube ads
(2025-07-12) just use firefox with ublock, this one is a waste of time
(2025-07-11) Blocks for a couple of months. After that, i manually have to skip ads. On top of that, keeps popping up website asking for donations. Sad...
(2025-07-11) doesnt block anything if they did they would probably be removed by google so pathetic
(2025-07-11) Just installed it today since my uBlock has officially died, even after it was labeled unsupported for a while now. Slider is now greyed out to turn it back on, POS Google. Anyhow, needed a new ad blocker and this was recommended. It's not working for me. I still see ads on several websites.
(2025-07-11) Simply does not work
(2025-07-11) Doesn't block ads
(2025-07-11) Shows it's hiding ads on sites, but let's them all through anyways. It's a party of random girls typing me, Michelle being close by, or products I don't need...
(2025-07-11) doesnt block anymore
(2025-07-10) Does not work. At all.
(2025-07-10) Is work prety well in almost every websites. Best adblock ever
(2025-07-10) OMG THANKS
(2025-07-10) They got some good ad blocking ideas.
(2025-07-10) APB is a good at its job, and unlike most people my problem is the opposite, APB wont turn off on some sites, I just dont want to email anyone for the feedback.
(2025-07-09) Doesn't work well AT ALL on Pinterest. Constant Ads!
(2025-07-09) Your popups are more ANNOYING than the ads themselves, how you dare to interrupt MY work after HOURS of having chrome active??
(2025-07-08) I love the experemental for youtube0. thank you so much
(2025-07-06) I paid for an upgrade to the premium version of adblock but I still have the (free) basic version and when opening the adblock extension , I am asked to pay for an upgrade to premium .
(2025-07-06) yusles
(2025-07-06) keeps disabling itself + constantly begs for money
(2025-07-05) it works on my devices that i installed this on long ago but it keeps disabling itself on newer devices. I suspect youtube is to blame
(2025-07-05) Seems to work, BUT it won't allow you to bypass it so I lose a lot of internet functionality. On those sites that require adblockers be disabled, the ABP drop down menu doesn't function...EVER! on multiple different branded computers, different OS, different ISP. The old adblock worked well which is why I continued when Plus was launched but maybe not for much longer.
(2025-07-05) It seems to work just fine...it says it has blocked 200k ads...seems like a lot but i'm not complaining
(2025-07-05) keeps disabling itself
(2025-07-05) people will naturally complain it is in their blood, this is actually an incredible tool provided for free with the option of having additional security for a small monthly fee that's cheaper than the snacks some of these idiots purchase daily. Keep up the good work and disregard the poor souls who cant afford a meager 4 quid a month for a service that benefits them.
(2025-07-04) Used to be amazing but now they demand payment to block nearly anything. It's better than nothing but I'm looking for an alternative
(2025-07-04) Says "Free" ad blocker in the title, then you install it to try it out and it asks you for £35 per years or £3.50 per month. Maybe my understanding of free is wrong. In that case, can someone explain what is actually free? (my time perhaps?)
(2025-07-03) I LOVE THIS ADBLOCKER
(2025-07-03) good
(2025-07-03) Now you're insert an annoying orage color into the webpages that is as bad as the adds you dont block You are just making the extention useless
(2025-07-03) Used to be good, now, there is no difference if its on or off, ads are all over, on every site.
(2025-07-02) Great extension to Chrome. ADP works in the background stopping popups all the time great little piece of software.
(2025-07-02) Brilliant!
