Manifesting change: AdGuard Ad Blocker on MV3 moves from prototype to beta
In mid-2021, AdGuard began developing a new ad-blocking extension designed to comply with the constraints of Manifest V3. Despite challenges from the API’s early and unfinished state, we have successfully adapted our Ad Blocker to operate effectively under these new conditions. Check out our blog to learn more about how this journey began.

Important to know

The beta has replaced the prototype in the Chrome WebStore and will stay available there.

With the full release, the MV3 version will become the main one and replace our old extension. If you want to know when the release is coming, follow us on social media.

After the MV3 release, the old beta extension will be renamed to AdGuard Ad Blocker MV2. We will continue to support it until Google phases it out, as they said in the Chrome blog.

The main question: Is MV3 extension as good as MV2?

MV3 extension effectively blocks ads and trackers and seamlessly manages social widgets, banners, and video ads. Most users won’t notice any operational differences.

Now, let’s get to the technical details.

Are there any concerns or limitations when using AdGuard MV3 for Chrome on Edge?
I don't think there are any concerns, AdGuard is a well known company and trusted, for limitations I'm sure they will overcome with each update, you can try it and check by yourself, I'm still using the MV2 for Edge and will continue until it will be not supported.

Are there any concerns or limitations when using AdGuard MV3 for Chrome on Edge?
For my personal surfing habits, no difference noticeable between AdGuard MV3 (from Chrome web store) or Adguard MV2 from Edge addons.
Probably some improvements are coming next year for AdGuard MV3 Browser Extension as the development will continue as usual...
