    Nice, the number of adblocking apps on iOS is rare. Most demand subscriptions and don’t do device wide adblocking, only in Safari. Only the old version of AdGuard Pro still does it, so I haven’t updated the app in years.

          I’ve been using Wipr for quite a while, a just set it and forget it kind of deal. I had no idea there was a v2. Will check it out this morning!

            It’s soooo worth it, it blocks even more stuff like autoscrolling videos, Adblock shame popups, cookie banners, and more things.

                Hell yeah! YouTube is a little weird, I have to refresh for videos to play. I mainly just use Firefox Focus to play YouTube vids because it works much better for ad blocking.

                For everything else tho, I really am loving Wipr2.

        If you buy from a reputable seller with a good free return policy, at worst you’ll have to send the device back. If you have access to a credit card or PayPal, it’s a good idea to use them, in case the seller becomes unresponsive.

          Pro Tip for PayPal: in the (hopefully unlikely) event that PayPal sides with the seller, contact the BBB and complain.

          I had an issue with a seller on eBay claiming they shipped me an iPad, but it was not to my address. It was considered delivered so both eBay and PayPal decided they wanted to wash their hands of my complaint and not honor their guarantees. This was in spite of the postmaster sending them a letter acknowledging that the package was not delivered to me. Once I filed a complaint with the BBB, PayPal was quick to resolve my issue with a refund.

    Finally, took them long enough. AdGuard has been good to me but I’ll switch to UBlock in 0.02 nanoseconds once it is available.

      Btw Adguard collects your data. Check their privacy policy. The moment I knew this, I moved to mullvad DNS but nowadays it is not stable. (I use private DNS for system-wide adblocking)
