AdGuard Assistant 1.4.1
Release date: March 14, 2024
Our epic journey of adapting our browser extensions to Manifest V3 is still on, and we've hit another milestone! Now the time has come for your faithful companion in ad-blocking: we are ready to announce AdGuard Browser Assistant v1.4, fully adapted to MV3.
While using the extension, you may not even notice any difference in your user experience or in its overall functionality, but make no mistake: a lot has changed. Due to the limitations of the new API, adapting extensions to Manifest V3 is a laborious task, but the work needs to be done — slowly but surely, extensions are hopping on the MV3 train.
Thanks to the hard work of our developers, the transition to this new API will be smooth for you. Managing your AdGuard desktop apps directly in your browser? Still a piece of cake, even in the wild world of MV3!
