      Or use brave browser if not watch on TV

  • devpress on 20/02/2025 - 17:50

    So how do you accommodate more than 9 devices?

    • CocaKoala on 20/02/2025 - 18:18

      Install it on your router.

      • Bacha on 20/02/2025 - 18:55

        How we install it on a router? Any tutorial i can follow?

        • sav11 on 21/02/2025 - 15:59
          +1

          Either use AdGuard Home if your router supports it (or use it on your NAS or Server if you have one, or a Raspberry Pi/Zero): https://adguard.com/en/adguard-home/overview.html

          Or just use AdGuards public DNS servers; in your routers DNS settings change it to AdGuards DNS servers: primary 94.140.14.14, secondary 94.140.15.15: https://adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

          But if you need more than 9 devices I'd still recommend to buy more licenses and install the apps too. Despite StackSocial saying new users only it's not, you can stack them in the same existing AdGuard account.

          I use AdGuard Home and also the AdGuard adblocker licensed apps in this post together.

    • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 18:21
      +1

      Buy more license codes. Despite StackSocial saying new users only it's not, you can stack them.

      Or you could just point your devices to use AdGuard's DNS servers. Or use free AdGuard Home to block ads network-wide at the DNS level on your router/NAS/Server. But I prefer to use both of them together, it's more customisable & more features.

      • devpress on 20/02/2025 - 19:36
        +2

        Sorry I'm a dummy at these things…but

        If we can just point device at AdGuard's DNS servers, what's the benefit then of paying for the license? Is it for when you're out of home (e.g. your device isn't connected to home wifi/router?)

        • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 19:51
          +2

          If you point your device to their DNS servers that will also work when you're not connected to your home network.

          The license/app provides more features and customisability than just the DNS servers. And single tap to turn it on or off e.g you may want to turn it off temporarily so as to not block cash-back trackers (or configure it to never block those particular trackers).

  • MR-AM on 20/02/2025 - 17:50

    Will this work for articles that are behind paywall?

    • varvaz on 20/02/2025 - 18:03

      No, for that there are some other tools which only work for certain pages

      • MR-AM on 20/02/2025 - 18:08

        Thank you!

    • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 18:29

    • ldd-mn on 20/02/2025 - 18:49

      Because it blocks ads in apps that aren't a browser?

      • CyberMurning on 21/02/2025 - 08:14

        What are example ads that not in browser? Im confused

        • Sage222 on 21/02/2025 - 10:23

          probably means ads on phone apps. though my DNS post above blocks them for free.

      • Sage222 on 21/02/2025 - 10:23

        so does my DNS post above.

    • neoleo on 21/02/2025 - 00:14
      +1

      Not only blocking ads, but also have other features. In android phone, other features for system wide (not only browser) such as:
      ✓ Advanced tracking protection (many options that are not available in browser).
      ✓ Firewall function for apps
      Etc.

      I combine this app with NextDNS ;-) So, it's like double protection, even triple protection when using Adguard VPN.

  • RedHab on 20/02/2025 - 18:30

    There's also AdAway, a similar free project for Android

    https://f-droid.org/packages/org.adaway/

    • neoleo on 21/02/2025 - 00:03

      I used AdAway years ago. Adguard is much better with more features and filters.

  • bcYield on 20/02/2025 - 18:31

    Can it protect you from government/family tracking?

  • mbrooks on 20/02/2025 - 18:42

    I've got a lifetime personal licence already but been looking for a family one for other devices and people in the fam.

    But it's new users only right?

    It's just email based right? Would it work if I just used a new email?

    • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 19:17
      +2

      Despite StackSocial saying new users only it's not, you can stack more licenses on the same account. It will add the "family" 9 licenses to your existing "personal" 3 for a total of 12 devices.

        Thanks for that.
        Double-confirming that is what happened :)

  • asspelican on 20/02/2025 - 18:50

    I purchased AdGuard premium in my iPhone already, is this any different?

    • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 19:22
      +1

      Depends what you mean by AdGuard premium. This is lifetime licenses for AdGuard adblocker apps (on any platform), as opposed to a subscription to AdGuard Premium DNS service.

      • asspelican on 20/02/2025 - 19:27

        Im speaking about the AdGuard premium for 19.99 lifetime license in AppStore. Not vpn service.

      • asspelican on 20/02/2025 - 19:32

        And the adguard apps are dns based I think it’s the vpn you are talking about.

        • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 19:43

          I'm not talking about the VPN though they do have one, & if you subscribe to the VPN it also includes their premium DNS service as a free inclusion.

          The one in the IOS appstore only blocks ads in Safari. The app this license is for blocks ads device-wide i.e in other apps as well as browsers. You have to side-load it, not available in appstores.

          • asspelican on 20/02/2025 - 20:51

            @sav11: Hi the one I’m talking about blocks system wide I don’t use safari sorry so I don’t know about that.

  • Carnal on 20/02/2025 - 19:44

    Tailscale + (Technitium DNS | PiHole | adguard home]

    For that free and fairly easy to set up for family phones with self hosted DNS. Just have em make Tailscale accounts and share your DNS's IP + port with them so they can use it

  • bbyfeel on 20/02/2025 - 19:51

    How does it work with the rewards app such as Cashrewards, Shopback and Top Cashback on mobile phones? Would it just work because they use their own apps for tracking?

    • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 19:56
      +2

      In browsers it blocks trackers including the ones cashback services use. I don't use cashback apps so not sure but I think it would still block them.

      You can easily configure it to not block particular apps. Also one tap to just turn it off temporarily.

      • Xizor on 20/02/2025 - 21:25

        Is that just the adguard app? No issue for cashback using their dns? Interested but curious how i might set it up.

        • sav11 on 20/02/2025 - 21:39

          I'm not sure if their DNS servers block those trackers or not sorry.

          • neoleo on 21/02/2025 - 00:00

            @sav11: Yes, it can block trackers too. So, just disable it temporarily. After finish shopping, enable it again.

        • neoleo on 20/02/2025 - 23:59

          Adguard app include Adguard DNS can interest with cashback tracking. Just disable the app temporarily. After finish shopping, enable it again.

          • Xizor on 21/02/2025 - 00:06

            @neoleo: Thanks. So better to use APP not DNS on router if use cashback stuff.

            • neoleo on 21/02/2025 - 00:45

              @Xizor: *interest interfere

              DNS on router is for all devices protection in the same network.

              When you use cashback app/website, I recommend to just use your phone without WiFi and disable Adguard app in the phone. So, no problem with cashback tracking.

    Word to the wise, do not purchase using PayPal express checkout without creating a stacksocial account first. It will not send you a redemption code or anything like that separately, you will just a request to setup an account to redeem it, but then you have no way to redeem it. I've sent a submitted a ticket to their support team.

      I haven't used Blokada but it has pretty bad reviews on the Google Play store.

      Looks like Blokada is only for Android and IOS? AdGuard adblocker in this post can be used on all platforms including Windows and Linux.

      IMO yes this would be better.

    I have network wide adblocking for everything at home, I forget how much ads there are (including ozbargain - sorry not sorry) - this even works on my mobile and laptop outside of my network because I'm connected to teh home vpn. Why would anyone pay for this when you have pihole that is tremendous ?

    • Krazyy on 21/02/2025 - 01:25

      I also have Pihole but it does not block ads in apps on your phone etc.

      • Ifndefx on 21/02/2025 - 11:11

        really ? I get this blank screen in some apps with a x to close it. I don't think I've seen ads on phones. How big is your list ?

    • sav11 on 21/02/2025 - 01:44

      Because it gives you much more features, & control at the device level.

      Also free AdGuard Home is the equivalent of Pihole but better.

      I used to use Pihole then I upgraded to AdGuard Home + AdGuard adblocker apps on devices, haven't looked back.

      BTW you don't have to connect to your home VPN for adblocking, just use the Pihole DNS on your devices.

      • Krazyy on 21/02/2025 - 01:54

        Curious, if I wanted to install the adblocker on kids devices to stop ads but also adult websites, is there a way to stop the kids from “turning off” the app? Ie password protect etc ? I know I can turn off deleting the app via screen time on apple but what about stopping them from changing settings and turning off etc.

        • sav11 on 21/02/2025 - 02:16
          +1

          You could use another app such as Smart Applock to PIN protect the AdGuard app.

      • Ifndefx on 21/02/2025 - 11:17

        Yeah I know, but the vpn is for other purposes as well. The network wide ad blocking is good perk while i'm connected. Curious as to what more could you want, what am I missing out on ?

        I do pay for Youtube Premium, but for everything else I have blocked everything - even to a point that my partner hates it because the shopping banner at the top of google searches don't appear. But I use whoogle instead of direct access to google.

        • Ifndefx on 21/02/2025 - 11:32

          Did some research it looks like, based on reddit comments etc… if you are able to run network wide, then do so… if you are unable to or don't know how to or just can't be bothered then use this.

          Based on my usecase it doesn't look like it provides any value because i run my own services, but for others it might.
