[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 715491, member: 55987"] I'm not saying it's no good for I'm also using it now. But I would like a replacement once my license expires. It has many advantages over other similar adblockers like - blocking ads/trackers/social media plugins in apps and browsers with filters i.e. device-wide and browser blocking - DNS filtering(with DNSCrypt & DNSSEC server) - firewall - HTTPS filtering However, it has several disadvantages 1) It is a paid app 2) It drains battery more than other similar apps. This is based on feedback on the net 3) It uses a local VPN which prevents the user from using a dedicated VPN service as Android only allows one VPN to run at anyone time Here are my suggestions to overcome 1) Use a browser like Firefox Quantum with addons to protect against ads/trackers/phishing/fingerprinting/social media plugins (with adguard or uBlock Origin addon) etc. This gives more and effective protection than Adguard Premium 2) Use AdClear. AdClear now provides firewall and HTTPS filtering features. It offers device-wide and browser protection against ads/trackers etc. Also, AdClear don't consume noticeable battery according to feedback on the net. I believe its privacy policy will not affect you seriously if you don't mine. 3) Lastly, the above are FREE :) Edit :- Ooops sorry. AdClear also uses a VPN service so it'll clash with your dedicated VPN service. Removed the latter. [/QUOTE]
