Same deal as recent https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/872843 but this time even lower price.
Coupon TAKE20 works again, which brings the price down to $12.78 which is about AU$20.10. Probably not ATL, but still good price.

Use TAKE20 for additional discount :)

Please note that Stack Social shows this warning:

This plan is only available to NEW users

whatever that means.

Personal license is also available for US$9.97 (regular is $79.99), but why would you go with Personal?

On a side note, I have 2 Pi-holes in my home network for many years (and happy with them), but want to try AdGuard if it really makes a big difference. Talk me out of it :)

        I switched from DDG to Brave a few months ago after years searching with DDG. I got sick of it ignoring search terms. Would click one of the results and did a search for the search term and it wasn’t there. DDG (Bing) has an algo that thinks it knows what you are after but I was frustrated so often that I would be getting crap results. Switching to Google worked really well in those cases, like night and day. Anyway I find Brave search to be pretty decent, I suppose the only thing is it doesn’t always give me Australian regional results and I need to put in “Australia” in the search. The AI widget is handy sometimes too.

      But why I’m now thinking about AdGuard: YouTube app recently updated on Apple TV and there’s now a shitload of ads. Previously I somehow magically was watching YouTube with no premium account and no ads, but not after recent update of app. Google somehow managed to finally sneak into :(

      • Magicmannn on 15/12/2024 - 23:36

            @olderman: After Google did an update to stop it AdGuard did an update to get around it again. But now you have to open the video in YouTube then share it to AdGuard and watch it in the AdGuard app with no ads. So it works but is clunky compared to before the updates.

            Best thing for free YouTube Premium is Revanced and Revanced Music. Brilliant.

        • 1 Sec on 16/12/2024 - 09:22

          I used to sideload twitch on iOS. After Adguard premium, and importing the same Adblock list from NextDNS, I no longer get ads on the official twitch app. Not complaining but strange not having ads with just regular adblocker.

        I went from Pihole to AdGuard Home on my NAS and AdGuard app + AdGuard VPN on client devices, and I'm happy (StackSocial has AdGuard VPN 5 years 10 devices for $34.97, and you can stack them. It says new users but works with existing accounts. It also gives you their premium DNS service for free while you have a VPN subscription).

        An Android limitation is you can only run 1 VPN at a time. Security apps like AdGuard work by creating a local VPN, so you cant also run a VPN for your internet traffic at the same time. But AdGuard has managed to code their apps so you can run AdGuard + AdGuard VPN in integration mode concurrently on Android.

        For YouTube try Revanced and Revanced Music. Free YouTube Premium they work flawlessly.

      • neoleo on 16/12/2024 - 13:35

        Another way is using VPN with certain servers to watch YouTube no ads, no premium account needed ;-)

        https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/880322

        Currently NordVPN 98% cashback through Topcashback or 100% cashback through Shopback. Usually 1 day for Shopback tracking confirmation, but better choose Topcashback for VPN purchase (faster tracking confirmation).

    I don't see how this would be better than running a pi-hole or AdGuard home. Not a big fan of running extra software on-device unnecessarily.

    I'm running AdGuard Home on my Opnsense firewall, plus ublock or brave adblock. I basically never see ads.

      I use Adguard on my iPhone as I got it on a deal like this a few years ago. It’s been great. What you say is true. But when you go out on 4/5G, the VPN ad blocking kicks in and then no ads in your browser or apps. I hate ads so this is awesome stuff. I did my own ad blocking at home with squidGuard a number of years ago but let that go by the wayside now because Adguard on mobiles plus uBlock on all laptop/PC browsers does the job. Windows is an issue with all its telemetry and ads so I use Linux where I can and otherwise tweak Windows with O&O Shutup10.

    • paulied84 on 16/12/2024 - 08:27

      It's pretty good when on not on the home wifi and you don't need to vpn home to get the blocking.

      Also can block certain apps and allow others.

      • Flapjack Fire on 16/12/2024 - 22:27

        For this, on mobile, I have a free NextDNS account that I set as my "private DNS" (DNS over TLS/HTTPS server). It does have a query cap but I never hit it.

        Blocks ads and avoids carrier DNS servers on the go, no extra app required.

    • snoopydoop on 16/12/2024 - 12:53

      Mine reads as a lifetime code within AdGuard itself.

      Obviously lifetime is never lifetime but unless stack social can somehow make codes/licenses remove from accounts it seems to be more on AdGuard honouring than stacksocial in this case.

        Imagine everyone paid for the lifetime subscription, the company would have no income in the future years. Guess what? Your data is. Since you set up adguard for the whole home, I can't 100% trust them yet.

        • sav11 on 16/12/2024 - 23:31
          +2

          The same could be said about AdGuard Home which they provide for free.

          They get ongoing/future revenue via VPN and premium DNS subscriptions which don't have lifetime options.

          AdGuard have been around quite a few years now with a good track record. They have a good privacy policy too; not sure what you mean by "your data is" but AdGuard don't sell or share users data which is explicitly stated in their policies.

          You never know but I personally view AdGuard as a reasonably safe bet. And for the price it's a no-brainer IMO.

          • bcYield on 17/12/2024 - 00:30

            @sav11: Do they save user's data? I use adguard add-on version for some devices but not whole home. Yep lifetime for the whole family is a no brainer.

          Only if the ads come from a domain that the content doesn't, if the domain is ads . prime. com, this means it could be blocked but if the it all comes from content . prime . com then no.

    I use this on my phone and PC. I also use PiHole at home. It's actually pretty decent. especially if you spend the time with apps and make sure they're blocking ads correctly. I get no ads in most apps using this but it does still struggle with ads served from the same domain as the site (eg Facebook) but that's a limitation on most ad blockers. For this price it's worth it, if you're on the fence (imo).

    Just enter this provider hostname in your phone's settings:
    Network -> Private DNS -> dns.adguard.com

    Note should turn off when not wanted, like for cashbacks.

    uBlock Origin extension blocks everything on Chrome PC (I use IBA Opt-out (by Google) as well i think)

    • neoleo on 16/12/2024 - 12:25
      +1

      Certain ads can still slip through the Adguard DNS as it's only DNS based blocking. Adguard app is better and have a lot more features and advantages that the DNS cannot do. I combine Adguard app + NextDNS for the DNS in the app = double protection. Even more with Adguard VPN (free is still enough for me).

      • G-rig on 16/12/2024 - 12:41

        Ah ok. I may have a look but free sounds fine.
        Just don't need more apps running in the background vs a quick fix. It blocks most.

        • neoleo on 16/12/2024 - 12:51
          +2

          Not all apps need to run all day in the background such as bank apps, shopping apps, games, etc. Opening Uber Eats app will trigger Uber app, same with Amazon Music will trigger Amazon app to run. I use Hibernator app to stop certain apps from running all day in the background.

          Adguard app has firewall feature that can block certain apps that we don't want to have access to Internet. I block certain file manager app, photo editing app, etc. from having access to Internet as not all apps need Internet access (safety concern). Also this can save more battery and data.

        • neoleo on 16/12/2024 - 13:19

          Also try this:
          https://d3ward.github.io/toolz/adblock

          See if yours can reach at least 99% or even perfect 💯% ;-)
          This is one of the limitation of DNS based blocking.

          NextDNS has many more features and filters in its setting after login, but cannot use Private DNS feature in android settings. So, need the NextDNS app or can put its specialised DNS in the Adguard app (double protection). NextDNS can reach 99% from test link above.

          uBlock Origin extension in browsers can reach 99%/100% but it doesn't protect systemwide (only browsers).

            @neoleo: I second NextDNS, it even has a free offering which I find is enough for one device. It works on my Android phone using the Private DNS feature.

            • neoleo on 16/12/2024 - 22:35

              @Flapjack Fire: How do you put your specialised NextDNS in Private DNS in android? I tried, but cannot save my specific NextDNS.

              Either I put it in Adguard app in DNS setting, or use NextDNS app.

              I use free account for NextDNS too as personal use is still more than enough for me.

              • Flapjack Fire on 16/12/2024 - 23:00

                @neoleo: Using the DNS-over-TLS/QUIC FQDN should work. Should look like: xxxx.DNS.nextdns.io

                DNS-over-HTTPS or Linked IP will not work.
