AdGuard Browser Extension 4.3.53 beta​

New release, new challenges. In this beta we've worked on the reliability of the AdGuard scripts in the Firefox browser: now they can withstand even the strictest CSP rules on a site, which means more ads will be blocked. And one more change: some errors related to the Self-destruction of first-party cookies option will no longer be displayed in the console.

Changelog​


Fixes​

  • Errors in the console when using the Self-destruction of first-party cookies option #2683
  • Sites with strict CSP may block AdGuard scripts in Firefox #1733

AdGuard Browser Extension 5.0.1 beta​

We’ve shed many tears over Manifest V3, but that didn’t stop us from rebuilding our extension to meet its requirements. Now we present you with a beta version that effectively blocks ads and trackers and seamlessly manages social widgets, banners and video ads.

We’ve worked hard to make sure that most users won’t notice any difference in the way the extension works compared to MV2. However, some sacrifices have been made in the form of reduced features and rule limits.
You can test the new extension by installing it from the Chrome WebStore.

If you want to stay loyal to the MV2 version, it’s still available. However, the MV3 version will replace the MV2 extension when Google phases it out, as mentioned in the Chrome blog.

AdGuard Browser Extension 4.4.18 beta​

Another day, another beta — the 5th one, to be more precise. Turns out the content writer is running out of ideas, so here's what has changed, directly and bluntly: after migrating from v4.3 to v4.4, the differential filter updates stopped working. Now we’ve fixed it, and the extension is doing its job perfectly.

So many bugs with the last several releases, but this is what you get when you build an MV3 extension with extensive permissions, unlike µBOL.

AdGuard Browser Extension 5.0.65 beta (MV3)​

In this beta version, we’ve fixed some bugs and updated the Scriptlets. Plus, the counter for blocked ads in the popup is back. However, we can’t provide a counter for beta versions of our MV3 extension: the number is too big.

Changelog​

Fixes​

  • MV3 extension does not apply cosmetic and JS rules if website uses service worker #2909

Scriptlets (JavaScript enhancement for filtering rules)​

  • Scriptlets updated to v1.11.27

AdGuard Browser Extension 5.0.78 beta (MV3)​

After numerous betas, it’s finally time for a release candidate for the MV3 extension. Besides the usual bug fixes, this RC comes with a new feature: support for the AdGuard Quick Fixes filter.

This feature brings more agility to the update process: if a fix needs to be implemented ASAP, there’s no need for a full extension update – AdGuard Quick Fixes applies adjustments in real-time using dynamic rules without a significant impact in the user’s dynamic rules limit. It’s fast, efficient, and exactly what you need for seamless filtering on the go in the harsh environment of MV3.

AdGuard Browser Extension 5.0.104 beta (MV3)​

After the update, some users experienced incorrect operation of the extension — ads were not blocked at all. This could have happened due to rule conversion errors, but thanks to this hotfix, everything is back to normal. Now you can customize ad blocking to your liking and see no ads.
