CoreLibs updated to to v1.16.53

AdGuard til Android 4.7 Beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 15. november 2024
Today's beta version is exactly what we love: it introduces a fresh feature we can’t wait to see live in the main release. And it’s no small beta either: we’re introducing a privacy browser to the app! Let’s take a closer look at each of these.
AdGuard v4.7 is the last version that offers support for Android 7 and 8. From the next release, we will only offer support for Android 9 or superior.

A private browser, because there’s no such thing as too much privacy

Keeping privacy in mind while browsing has become an essential part of many users’ everyday life. We’re rolling out the AdGuard private browser, bringing an extra layer of privacy to your daily web experience.
So, what’s so cool about this browser?
Ad and tracker blocking (of course!)
Easy history deletion with a visible, accessible button. Also, your browser history is automatically cleared when you close a tab
The option to save a browsing session by creating a bookmark — something regular Incognito Mode doesn’t offer! If you want to pick up right where you left off without re-opening every tab or logging back in, this feature is for you. For this to work, though, we do store cookies and localStorage
To explore this new feature, tap Try our private browser on the app's home screen. You can also access the browser through the Protection tab, where you can set a default search engine and even create a browser widget.

Just a heads-up: our private browser is still in the early stages of development and has a few limitations, like the inability to handle multiple sessions at once. In the future, we’ll offer a more comprehensive browsing experience, but for now, we suggest using it as a supplement to your usual browser’s Incognito Mode, rather than a replacement. Sounds good?

AdGuard til Android 4.6.4 Beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 3. oktober 2024
This release is all about good vibes and improved filtering quality — the new version of the CoreLibs does just that. We’ve also optimized the way we handle statistics, so they load faster and use less RAM while the app is running. A few minor bugs were fixed as well.
AdGuard til Android 4.6 RC 1
Udgivelsesdato: 19. juli 2024
Just one final tweak before the release. In this version we’ve successfully fixed one major issue. Some users were experiencing a problem when switching between mobile and Wi-Fi connections. The AdGuard protection would stop, so you’d have to start it again manually. We’ve also fixed some other bugs to make the application even more stable. Keep an eye out for more updates — the official release is just around the corner!

AdGuard til Android 4.6 Beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 11. juli 2024
As Vince Lombardi says, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.” We do as he says, and try our best to make every update better. Today we are happy to release the new version of AdGuard for Android. Faster, stronger, and more efficient. Let’s take a look at the major changes.
With the updated filtering engine CoreLibs, we have been able to implement many new features that will improve your filtering experience. First of all, we increased HTTPS filtering speed. Second, we added support for urltransform and xmlprune modifiers. Now even more distracting elements on a page will be blocked.
Our developers didn't rest on their laurels, so they also updated DnsLibs, UserscriptsWrapper and fixed a lot of bugs to make the application more stable.

This update brings our YouTube player’s usability to a whole new level. This update brings our YouTube player’s usability to a whole new level: we added background playback, recommended videos, quality settings, and much more. Not so unskippable now, are you, ads? On top of that, this version includes some nice fixes for overall app performance, including the Android TV version.

A ton of improvements for AdGuard’s YouTube player

Just look at what’s available now:
Change video quality, playback speed, and subtitle settings using the gear ⚙ button Picture-in-Picture mode is now supported, which means you can shrink the video to a small window and keep playing it in the background while using other apps. Great for such things as listening to music or podcasts View recommended videos at the end of the video or by pausing the video Double-tap the right or left side of the screen to skip 10 seconds forward or back correspondingly
Quick reminder: to launch the AdGuard player, choose any video in the YouTube app, tap “Share” and select AdGuard Player (it’s likely that you will need to scroll right and tap “More” first).

We also made sure that the $all modifier now works correctly, updated the CoreLibs and DnsLibs — our beloved filtering engines — and added a few improvements along the way. What else is there to say? Update and see for yourself!

It’s the same AdGuard you know and love, but now with a TV-sized twist – and we mean that quite literally: we’re glad to introduce the support for Android TV! Important updates and a new Developer tools section are also here to enhance your user experience with our app.

Android TV support

To provide full support for Android TV, we’ve developed a simplified version of AdGuard for Android featuring the most essential features to enhance your browsing experience and content filtering on your TV. The new design, fully adapted for Android TV, includes:
Adapted onboarding
Home screen with statistics
Adapted Protection screen
Adapted settings
Hold on to your remote, what you are about to experience is a brand new app!
Note: Android TV support is a feature exclusive to users with an AdGuard license.

Developer tools

We invite our advanced users and filter developers who interact very actively with the app to explore our new Developer tools, a specialized section designed for quick navigation and switching between features. There you can quickly enable or disable custom filters, access logs, enable recording of different logs, and more. This feature can be enabled in Low-level settings.

CoreLibs and DnsLibs updates

The recent CoreLibs v1.13 update boosts your browsing experience with improved HTML filtering, while the update of DnsLibs to v2.4 makes your connection more secure with support for HTTP basic authentication.

AdGuard til Android 4.2 Beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 29. september 2023

Dynamic icon #4317

AdGuard for Android now has a dynamic icon. If you are using themed icons on your smartphone, the AdGuard app will also match the color of your system.

HTTP/3 filtering support #487

AdGuard now not only filters HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 traffic. In this beta we have added experimental support for HTTP/3 filtering. The HTTP/3 protocol, powered by the QUIC network protocol, provides better privacy and security, as well as a more stable and faster Internet connection. By enabling HTTP/3 filtering, you can take advantage of the QUIC protocol and effectively block ads and trackers.
To enable HTTP/3 filtering, go to Settings → General → Advanced → Low-level settings → Filter HTTP/3 and toggle the switch to the right.

Support for two HTTPS certificates

By implementing two HTTPS certificates, we have fixed an issue with HTTPS filtering in Chrome version 100 and above on rooted devices. While the certificate in the system store will be responsible for filtering in most apps, the certificate in the user store will allow AdGuard to filter HTTPS traffic in Chromium-based browsers.
Installing certificates has also become easier: we've added step-by-step instructions.
To install the second certificate, go to Settings → Filtering → Network → HTTPS filtering → Security сertificates and follow the instructions.

AdGuard til Android 4.0 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 21. april 2023
This is the first beta of AdGuard v4.0 for Android — with a brand new design, rewritten code, and useful features. Let’s see what’s changed.

Nightly features

We already talked about the significant changes in the release notes for the first Nightly. Let's briefly remind you of them:
Complete redesign
Firewall
Detailed statistics
Improved Integrated mode
Selective app proxying
DNS filtering of IPv6 requests for rooted devices
More intuitive low-level settings

New features in this beta

In addition to the nice improvements listed above, we’ve implemented a few more features that need to be mentioned.

Firewall roaming support

Now you can block access to the Internet for specific apps when roaming. Megabytes, especially valuable when you're traveling abroad, won't be wasted.

Import and export of user rules, blocklists, and allowlists

In the first Nightly, you could only import settings as a whole. Now you can import user rules separately. It’s useful if you want to share your rules with someone or transfer them to your other AdGuard apps.

In conclusion

Thank you for helping us make the app better! If you find a bug or want to suggest a new feature, we will be happy to get feedback from you. When you’re ready, read how to do it correctly in our Knowledge base.
AdGuard til Android 3.6.11 beta 2
Udgivelsesdato: 18. januar 2023
They say that two betas before a release is a good sign. Today we are releasing the second beta of AdGuard v3.6.11 for Android with only one change: updated DnsLibs.

Changelog

Enhancement

Updated DnsLibs to v2.0.75 #4324
AdGuard til Android 3.6.11 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 13. januar 2023
You must have been missing AdGuard for Android updates. Well, you won't be bored now, because we're breaking into 2023 with a new beta version of the product, and we'll only gain traction from there.
The main changes in AdGuard v3.6.11 for Android beta were made in our core filtering engine – CoreLibs and DNSLibs. As for the rest, we’ve worked to enhance content filtering and made a bunch of minor changes to improve the application performance.

Updated DnsLibs to v2.0.66

A significantly updated version of the DNS filtering library consumes less resources and runs faster. The DNS-over-QUIC protocol implementation now supports the RFC 9250 standard, and the experimental status was removed from the DoQ support.

First step to Encrypted ClientHello support DL#161

First of all, what is Encrypted ClientHello? Nowadays, almost every internet connection is encrypted and no one can see what's inside this encrypted connection. However, there is still one little issue with it: the very first packet of the connection indicates the name of the server you are connecting to. Say you want to open www.google.com, your ISP cannot see what exactly you send and receive from it, but they know what website you are communicating with. ECH (Encrypted ClientHello) is a new technology that is supposed to solve this issue and encrypt that last bit of unencrypted information.
So what would be the first step to supporting it from AdGuard? Surprisingly, it is to suppress it! This can be done by switching both pref.dns.block.ech and pref.https.redirect.doh flags in the Low Level Settings.
But fret not: what we want to achieve is to provide you with ECH support globally so that all your apps could benefit from ECH, not just your browser. To accomplish this, AdGuard makes your apps establish regular HTTPS connections with it, and then it will establish a ECH-enabled connection on their behalf. This experimental feature is planned for the next update so stay tuned.

Updated CoreLibs to v1.10.186

DNS-over-HTTPS filtering

Added an option to redirect secure DNS requests to the local DNS proxy #1563
Chrome and Firefox DNS queries sometimes could circumvent DNS filtering by using a DNS-over-HTTPS server. Now AdGuard can automatically filter DNS-over-HTTPS as well.
This feature is experimental and can be enabled in Low Level Settings, its name is pref.https.redirect.doh. In the future versions we're planning to enable it by default.

Improved content filtering

The following new features are important to filter maintainers and provide advanced capabilities for content filtering.

Enhancement

Added a new $jsonprune basic rule modifier. This modifier allows advanced filtering for JSON responses #1447
Added a new $hls basic rule modifier. This modifier provides advanced filtering capabilities for modifying HTTP live streaming files which will help with preventing video ads. #1434
Expanded capabilities of the $stealth modifier. Filters maintainers can now specify which Stealth Mode features should be disabled for a given URL. Before that change the only option was to completely disable Stealth Mode. #1224
Added support for empty $path modifier for non-basic rules. #1591
$removeparam can now be applied to POST requests. #1573

Fixed

Hide your Referrer from third-parties Stealth mode option interferes with the $third-party modifier #1640
Cosmetic rules with :where() pseudo-class are rejected #1609
Rules with $third-party modifier block resources from the site's own subdomain #1637
Rules with the $all modifier do not block explicitly visited sites #1590

Other improvements

Enabled HTTPS filtering by default for Soul Browser #4202

Other fixes

When confirming 2FA the code entry page disappears in some cases
AdGuard does not create a local VPN and protection does not start #4269
Internet fails to work when a network is changing from Wi-Fi to mobile data #4265
Compatibility issue with iRobot Home app #4273

AdGuard til Android 3.6.8 beta 1

Besides, we've fixed extensions settings and enabled HTTPS filtering by default for Naver Whale Browser. Finally, CoreLibs and DnsLibs were updated.

AdGuard til Android 3.6.7 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 24. januar 2022
📲 Lately some of our users experienced discomfort — they couldn’t make voice calls in WhatsApp when AdGuard v3.6.6 for Android is enabled. The CoreLibs team managed to combat this problem. 📚 Besides, we’ve made several fixes to the scriptlets library. To recap, scriptlets are powerful blocking tools. In particular, they carry out a noble mission: to neutralize anti ad blockers. The previous version of AdGuard for Android had a scriptlet library that contained an incorrect fix for rules like #%#/scriptlet(“abort-current-inline-script”, ...), which could break some web pages; now the problem is solved. Having dealt with all the issues, we’re ready to present a new version. Please meet v3.6.7-beta, we’ve done our best for it to function smoothly.

Changelog

[Fixed] AdGuard breaks calls in WhatsApp #4080
[Enhancement] CoreLibs to v1.8.285 #4089

AdGuard til Android 3.5 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 14. august 2020
Today we release the first beta version of AdGuard v3.5 for Android. It features a long list of various impovements in its changelog, but the main focus is, without a doubt, on the freshly introduced compatibility mode with AdGuard VPN for Android.
[Enhancement] Compatibility Mode with AdGuard VPN Android app #3441
Since AdGuard VPN for Android was first introduced, there was already a way to make it work along with AdGuard ad blocker. But to make the two apps coexist in peace, you were required to jump through some hoops. Anyone who went ahead and did the thing 100% has been waiting for a proper integration ever since — and we oblige.
The best kind of compatibility is when you install two apps and they just start working together. We did exactly that. Presuming you already have AdGuard ad blocker installed, just download AdGuard VPN from Play Store (you can get there right from the ad blocker app, there's a new item in General Settings menu).
Both apps will detect each other and do everything that's needed for smooth joint work. All that will be left for you is to enjoy both ad-free Internet and all the benefits of a VPN. By the way, it works the other way around just as well: install AdGuard ad blocker on top of an already-running AdGuard VPN and you're good.
If you'd like to disable Compatibility Mode for any reason, it's very simple to do so from AdGuard ad blocker settings, just toggle the switch. Additionally, you can add AdGuard ad blocker and AdGuard VPN tiles to your device's notification bar and toggle them in one tap at your own will — thanks to Compatibility Mode the configuration will change immediately and silently.

AdGuard til Android 3.4 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 27. april 2020
Please welcome the first beta version of AdGuard v3.4 for Android! To start things off, we've enhanced the app in a few directions, including fixing some of the oldest known bugs and improving Android TV compatibility.
[Bug] AdGuard blocks Internet connection #2842
This bug had been puzzling us for a very long time. It appeared on various devices of AdGuard users and was seemingly random. However, the symptoms were the same: the smartphone lost any network completely while AdGuard was turned on. Needless to say, it had been our top priority to fix this issue, and finally, we've managed to beat it. Not going to lie, it's a big relief not only for the affected users but for us too!
[Enhancement] Integration with DnsLibs #3229
DnsLibs is a DNS proxy library that's required to provide DNS filtering. It supports all existing DNS protocols including DNS-over-TLS, DNS-over-HTTPS, and DNSCrypt. We developed it to replace the old DNSproxy, which had one serious flow: it caused high battery resource consumption. DnsLibs is much better optimized and will ensure a longer lifespan for your phone's battery if you're using DNS filtering a lot.
[Enhancement] Improved functionality on Android TV #3238
AdGuard for Android is first and foremost an app for mobile phones and tablets, but it can be installed on other Android devices, such as smart TVs. We have made several improvements for this specific case, for example:
AdGuard now better works with lists
Better navigation between AG menus on smart TVs
Option to click on snackbars
Option to exit the promo screen
"Close" option for all dialogues
Now AdGuard for Android will be much easier in use if you decide to install it on your smart TV. If you still encounter any bugs or inconsistent behavior, please report it here.
[Bug] Firewall's restriction are ignored when WiFi gets enabled #3313
And another unpleasant bug that deserves a special mention. In v3.3, if you had specifically prohibited some apps from accessing the Internet via mobile data, the restrictions worked right up until you enabled WiFi, which was not the intended behaviour.

Changelog

[Bug] Application won’t start after the restart of the device #3286
[Bug] Stealth mode preset changes after an update #3287

AdGuard til Android 3.3 RC 1
Udgivelsesdato: 19. december 2019
This release candidate version for AdGuard for Android turned out to be a tiny one. Despite that, however, it has one new feature (activation via OAuth) and a couple of useful fixes.
[Added] Trial period and license activation via OAuth #3081, #3244
Remember we added options to activate trial period and license by logging into your personal account? It’s even easier now. Enter credentials to your social media account (Google, FB, Twitter etc.) that is registered to the same email as your AdGuard personal account.
[Fixed] Filtering log scrolling issue #2974
[Fixed] AdGuard breaks some UDP connections on Samsung S10 devices with Android 10 #3259
[Improved] CoreLibs has been updated to v1.5.155 #3264
AdGuard til Android 3.3 beta 3.1
Udgivelsesdato: 10. december 2019
A quick hotfix that fixes the crash of the application when the protection starts if custom filters have been enabled.
[Fixed] The application causes a crash if custom filters were enabled #3258
AdGuard til Android 3.3 beta 3
Udgivelsesdato: 9. december 2019
This beta of AdGuard for Android is a bit of an outlier, in the sense that it’s the third one for v3.3. Usually, by that point changelogs become shorter, big juicy tasks get left for later. The closer we’re to release, the more we focus on fixing existing bugs rather than creating new ones 😄
Not this time, though! We still got a lot left in us: new purchase flow, some serious ad blocking quality improvements. And of course, there’s no escaping the chores: multiple bugfixes, crash hunting etc.
[Added] An option to purchase a new license via the app #2897
We’ve already made it so you don’t need to leave the app to link your personal account, and from now on you can even purchase a license without ever minimizing AdGuard. Either when you start the app for the first time, or when you decide it’s time to activate Premium, you’ll face a familiar but different screen.
The app will offer you to choose the preferred type of license and its duration and will ask you to enter your email. So basically the same actions that you’d perform on the website but without extra clicks and new tabs in the browser. One thing to add is that you can’t renew or upgrade your license this way yet, but hey. There’s more versions to come.

Ad blocking

[Changed] Whale browser has been added to the known browsers list #3175
[Fixed] “Exclude from filtering” button behavior #3052
[Fixed] Google Now can’t be updated with “Always-on-VPN” enabled #3039

[Fixed] Search on Apps Managements screen is working slow #2951

AdGuard til Android 3.3 beta 2
Udgivelsesdato: 24. oktober 2019
It seems that the first AdGuard v3.3 beta has opened the floodgates, and now there’s no power in the world to stop our developers from releasing more and more. Only one week has passed since, and we’re already presenting the next one. This time, our designers had a say too, and this is reflected in several UI-related changes that you won’t be able to miss.
[Changed] The onboarding process #2895
We sure love us some redesign! This time, we revamped the onboarding sequence (basically, what you see when you launch the app for the first time). Key changes:
An option to choose a ‘quick’ or a ‘long’ configuration: you’ll be asked to either make only key decisions or set most of the settings manually
New option to allow sending some technical and interaction information that will help us further improve AdGuard
Better graphics!
[Added] HTTPs filtering dialog #2967
HTTPS filtering is a cornerstone of AdGuard for Android. Without the permission to filter the HTTPS protocol the ad blocking power of AdGuard is severely crippled. That’s why we walk an extra mile to emphasize to users its importance.
We show a notification on the main AdGuard screen if HTTPS filtering is not enabled yet, and when you click on it, we now show a simple yet informative GIF that explains how HTTPS filtering works and why we recommend so strongly to turn it on.
[Added] “Refresh license status” button #2988
[Added] TLS v1.3 support for custom DNS servers #3132
[Added] Restore purchases button: a notification if there’s nothing to restore #2990
[Changed] Phrasing on activation screens #3141
[Changed] Internet connection availability checking method #3095
[Fixed] Pressing the “Buy one more license” button closes the current screen #3136
[Fixed] Some buttons in the first start dialog boxes can’t be seen on certain device models #3114
[Fixed] The switch for Custom filters incorrectly represents the state of the filter group #3119
[Fixed] Compatibility issues
[Improved] CoreLibs has been updated to v1.5.84 #3143
AdGuard til Android 3.3 beta 1
Udgivelsesdato: 14. oktober 2019
We hope you were missing our beta versions that can put to shame some releases because we have a laundry list of changes, fixes and improvements. A good portion of it refers to UI, but there are a few performance enhancements and such.
[Added] New activation flow #2901
Not a lot of Android users had a chance to see our AdGuard for iOS app, so they likely don’t know about the system that’s being used there for Premium features activation. But it recommended itself as one that’s convenient for users, so we adopted it for AdGuard for Android too.
As you can see, there are now two options: enter a license key directly, or log into AdGuard personal account. If your account has a license key that can be used to activate Premium, it will get picked up automatically after you enter credentials.

Ad blocking

[Added] Preset Stealth Mode settings configurations #2625
[Added] abp:subscribe and adguard:subscribe links interception #2918

AdGuard til Android 3.2.98
Udgivelsesdato: 18. juli 2019
First beta since the v3.1 release, and out of the gates it's packed with new stuff. Custom userscripts ✅, DNS User filter ✅, newbie-friendly feature discovery ✅, hosts syntax suuport for DNS filters ✅. And a looooooooong list of other changes, bugfixes and UI improvements. Let's go:
[Added] Userscripts support #34
Userscripts (we also call them extensions) are basically mini-programs written in Javascript that extend the functionality of one or more websites. Usually, you'd need some special userscript manager to add them, and it's traditionally more of a desktop thing. But with AdGuard everything is possible! Now you can add any userscripts by URL or load them from a file, and AdGuard will serve as a userscript manager and take care of the rest. Go to Settings > Extensions to enable some of the pre-installed extensions or to add custom userscripts.
[Added] Extension Details activity #2807
By the way, you can tap on any userscript from among the added ones to see more details, and to reinstall or delete it.
[Added] Feature discovery #2459
We try to position AdGuard for Android as an app you can technically turn on and forget about it, but that can offer so much more if you spend some time to explore it. To help new users not get lost in many many features we added over the years, we'll now highlight the most important UI elements and give short tooltips that explain what they are all about. This will only happen when you visit this or that screen for the first time, of course, otherwise it would become old very soon.
[Added] DNS User filter #2803
This is very similar to the regular User filter for custom filtering rules, but for DNS requests. You can find it at Settings > DNS Filtering > DNS Requests blocking. DNS User filter supports two types of syntax: limited portion of AdGuard syntax and "hosts" syntax. More about it in our Knowledge Base.
[Added] Custom hosts files support #1851
Another DNS-related feature. AdGuard users now can add any hosts lists as custom DNS filters. Again, this option is on the Settings > DNS Filtering > DNS Requests blocking screen.
[Fixed] IPv6 filtering doesn't work in automatic proxy mode #2579
Not a new feature, but a very important fix. Many users with rooted devices use AdGuard in automatic proxy mode, and it turned out that IPv6 filtering wasn't working in this mode. This beta fixes the problem.

Ad blocking

[Added] "Disable AMP" userscript #2815
[Changed] Google DOH and DOT URLs in the configuration have been updated #2844

[Changed] "Get Premium" activity now closes after free trial is successfully started #2816
[Fixed] UI bug on older LG devices #2789
[Fixed] Settings activity doesn't run on some devices with rare firmware #2770
[Fixed] Search results in Filtering log do not include some matching entries #2681

AdGuard til Android 3.0.287
Udgivelsesdato: 14. marts 2019
Another beta version for AdGuard 3.0 for Android. All the flashy stuff went into the first one, now it’s time to roll up the sleeves and do some good old bugfixing. Doesn’t mean, of course, that there’s nothing to talk about — we went over some of the more notable improvements in greater detail. Also we can’t but mention that CoreLibs filtering engine grows better and better, this update contains the new CL version.
- [Fixed] Wi-Fi calling doesn’t work with AdGuard #2550
Due to the way Wi-Fi calling is implemented, you will face problems if you try to use it while having an active VPN. Up until this update AdGuard wasn’t an exception — but it will be now. Without going into technical details (they are available by the link above), let’s just say we found a way to make AdGuard and Wi-Fi calling friends.
- [Added] Problematic devices detection #2458
It seems that more and more smartphone manufacturers follow the questionable trend of killing apps whenever they feel like it. Some brands and models do so more often than other. Fortunately, there are certain steps you can take to improve the situation, and these steps vary depending on your particular device.
AdGuard learnt to detect such problematic smartphone models, and when it gets killed like that for the first time, it will show you a notification that explains what just happened (accompanied by some pieces of advice how to prevent that in the future). Its not a cure-all (if only there was one), but definitely better than nothing.
- [Improved] Added fallback DNS servers #2490
If for whatever reason your current DNS server becomes unavailable (doesn’t matter whether you use one of the servers from the list we provide or a custom one), AdGuard uses your system default DNS as a fallback server. Not an ideal solution, so now you can indicate any DNS server (or even multiple) to be used as a fallback. Go to “Advanced Settings > Low-Level Settings” to set it up.

AdGuard til Android 3.0.241
Udgivelsesdato: 14. februar 2019
Hello! This is a special day, because this beta is, perhaps, the most important one in AdGuard for Android history so far. We are about to jump from v2 to v3 — those of you who were around when we first released AdGuard for Android 2.0 can get an idea of how many changes to expect. But tell you what, there will be even more this time!
Before we go into details and scrutinize the changelog, let’s talk a little about a major improvement in the CoreLibs. A quick refresher: CoreLibs is a completely new filtering engine that serves as a foundation for everything else. One of the biggest advantages of CoreLibs compared to the previous engine is that it is cross-platform. This means AdGuard for Android can now take the best from other AdGuard apps, and you will see it in action very soon. In this beta CoreLibs recieves a further boost, granting better performance and filtering quality.

[Improved] App redesign #713

One of the most expected, and at the same time controversial changes, for sure. We were debating whether to put ‘Changed‘ or ’improved‘ tag on this one, and decided for the latter. We wholeheartedly believe that the new variant is better than the old one. Our designers spent countless hours on it, going through many iterations, and this is where we finally arrived:
As you will notice very soon, we changed not only colors, but the layout too. For seasoned AdGuard veterans it will take some getting used to, but we are sure you’ll find the new design even better and more convenient after a while.

[Added] Dark theme #104

And before you say ‘But I was hoping for the dark theme!’ — don’t worry, it is also available. Looks not a single bit less slick than the default one:
Hop straight to settings and switch to it if you are a night person :)

[Added] Stealth Mode module #2094

A much anticipate addition, all thanks to the aforementioned CoreLibs integration. For the uninitiated, Stealth Mode module is responsible for protecting your privacy. Use it in conjunction with Tracking Protection filter to ensure the best protection. Also mind that different Stealth Mode options differ in their severity, some are ’free", and some come with certain trade-offs in convenience. When in doubt, read the tooltips or even send us a message with a question.

[Improved] DNS functionality #2415

There are, in fact, several different improvements hiding under one. Instead of bundling with the dnscrypt-proxy binaries, we are now using our own DNS proxy server that supports all existing DNS protocols. But enough of this gobbledygook, what does it mean for you, the user?.
AdGuard now supports DNS-over-TLS protocol, which is one of the most secure modern DNS protocols
To configure a DNS-over-HTTPS (another secure DNS protocol) server, you don’t need to know the SDNS and can use a simple string like . adguard. com/dns-query
Indicate any number of upstream servers for your custom DNS server setup

[Added] More filter subscriptions #12

Self-explanatory: the more, the better! If your favorite subscription wasn’t in the default list before, check it again..

[Added] Custom filter subscriptions by URL #13

...and if it is still not there, no big deal! Just add it manually, because now doing it is extremely easy. Just tap the respective button, enter the filter list’s URL, and it will appear among the rest of the filters. New filter will be updated automatically, and of course you can add more than one at a time..

[Added] Statistics charts #2083

Statistics is useful, it’s always nice to know how many ads were blocked, how much traffic was saved and so on. But simply looking at bland numbers is not very informative, and also plain boring. Charts both provide more information and are much more comprehensive...

[Improved] New first launch wizard #1965

If you are reading this, likely you don’t need any suggestions and you can navigate AdGuard’s options with ease. But for new and less experienced users this will be a helpful addition. Upon the first launch, the wizard will tell you about available features and suggest turning them on..

[Added] Protection status tab #2241

And again, a feature mostly aimed at newer users. AdGuard for Android accumulated quite a bit of features over the years, and it is not easy to identify from the get-go which are the most important. This new tab draws your attention right on the main screen and hints at which steps can be taken to enhance your protection...

[Improved] Widget redesign #2354

App’s icon was changed, so the widget needed to be altered as well. Not much to say here, aside from the change in looks, widgets now provide some statistics about blocked requests and so on. Better to see it once:

AdGuard til Android 2.12.187
Udgivelsesdato: 20. august 2018
Transitioning to a new filtering engine rarely goes smoothly, and we too faced quite a few problems. That was somewhat expected, so there was no need to panic — rather, a need to do a lot of work. Which we did! The CoreLibs themselves underwent an update to a new version; we fixed several crashes and network-related issues along the way, and even extended our tasker API. Now it’s your turn! Help us find more stuff to fix!
[Added] Extended Tasker API: proxy settings
Hopefully, you’ve already had a chance to test the new tasker API. This beta will give you something new to play with: proxy settings. Two new actions become available: proxy_state and proxy_default. The first one enables/disables the outbound proxy, the latter sets any of the previously configured proxies as default.

AdGuard til Android 2.12.140
Udgivelsesdato: 31. juli 2018
Have you fastened your seatbelt? Because this AdGuard beta will blow you away! We haven’t released a new beta version for 3+ months (which may be an anti-record, actually), but check out the new stuff: it was well worth the waiting. From the brand new filtering engine to UI improvements and enhancing the DNS filtering — this update has a lot to offer. Let’s have a closer look:
[Added] Integration with a completely new filtering engine (CoreLibs)
We have been working hard on integration with CoreLibs for a long time, and we are extremely proud and happy to finally include it into beta. The importance of it has been mentioned before multiple times, including a post in our Blog. We recommend reading it for more details, but if you only want a brief summary, here it is:
CoreLibs is a cross-platform filtering engine that will substitute previously used platform-specific engines. Thanks to it, the performance rate will increase drastically (twofold for AG for Android, according to our tests!). The unified filtering engine also means shorter development cycles, we no more need to account for the nuances of this or that OS. And finally, many features that only existed for one OS can now be easilly transfered to AG products for other platforms. So expect things like Stealth Mode on Android!
[Added] Notification channels
This is something that will only be available to users of Android 8 and newer. We have divided our notifications into six categories: Protection Status, License Status, Updates, Outbound Proxy, Firewall and Other. You can not only enable/disable each category separately in the system notification settings, but also manage each of them by tapping on the category name. This opens wide door for customization. Depending on what is important for you and what is not so much, you can, for example, turn some of them silent while keeping the sound for the rest.
[Added] Long press app shortcuts
Taking advantage of the feature available to users of Android 7.1+, we add long tap shortcuts. As it is obvious from the name, you just need to tap and hold on the app icon to bring up a list of fast actions. Among them are toggling the protection status, fetching AdGuard Assistant or checking for updates.
A note — you can drag any of these options to create a widget.
There are also two smaller buttons for opening app’s system settings and creating an AG widget, respectively.
[Fixed] Compatibility problems on Android P
Android P release is drawing near, and we don’t want to get ambushed by possible compatibility problems when it hits the market. We’ve looked into developer preview and modified our code accordingly.
[Added] Automation settings (Tasker, AutomateIt, etc)
A lot of users asked us about ways to automate some of AdGuard’s functions, like disabling protection when a certain app gets launched. Finally, we deliver, and the in-depth guide to automating AdGuard is already available in our Knowledgebase.
[Improved] DNS functionality
There are two different imrovements hiding behind one task here. First one is, we have upgraded DNSCrypt proxy to version 2. It is a general improvement, v2 is superior to v1 in speed and security. The other change is a bit more interesting: we’ve added “DNS over HTTPS” (DoH) support. This is an experimental protocol that is more secure due to increased protection against things like eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. You can easily find more technical information about DoH on the internet, but if you don’t want to bother just trust us: it is a nice thing to have :)
[Added] More DNS providers added to the “known by default” list
The more the better, right? Right! This includes such popular providers as Cloudflare Public DNS, FreeDNS and many others. Find one that suits you best!
[Added] Self-hosted automatic crash reporting system to catch the app crashes
New filtering engine (see above: CoreLibs) means that there may be more crashes than usual, and to address them quickly we introduce an integration with automatic crash reporting system - Sentry. . It will automatically send crash reports with all the information that developers need to fix the problem. For more details on what exactly is being sent, read our Privacy Policy. Just have a look at how many issues have been dealt with already thanks to it:
[Fixed] Crash when running the TCP/IP stack [Fixed] Crash caused (possibly) by a huge number of apps installed [Fixed] Crash on opening app's settings with Assistant [Fixed] Crash if protection fails to stop in 60 seconds [Fixed] Crash: java.lang.SecurityException: Destination must be on external storage [Fixed] Crash: The specified child already has a parent [Fixed] Crash: Unable to import null to preferences [Fixed] RuntimeException: The TCP/IP stack has finished its work unexpectedly [Fixed] Timeout crash due to slow Magisk initialization
And you can help us to track down and fix even more, so please keep it enabled if you are on the beta update channel.
Also, more than 120 CoreLibs issues has been resolved since the first nightly build!
Networking [Changed] Protection startup timeout is not used anymore when the VpnService requires preparation [Changed] pref.vpn.disable.reconfiguration is now checked for all Android versions 7+ [Fixed] Adguard does not pause itself properly when a third-party VPN is started [Fixed] AdGuard is disabled after network change event [Fixed] AdGuard is not capturing the mobile data usage correctly [Fixed] AdGuard misbehaves when it's set as always-on and it receives a connectivity change event [Fixed] AdGuard protection is not restored after being revoked by another VPN [Fixed] Unable to access internet with DNSCrypt enabled
UI [Added] A checkbox that disables Assistant and Filtering Log [Added] "Terms of Use" step when the app is started for the first time [Added] Marketing consent checkbox to the "Request trial" dialog" [Added] Bulk edit option for ad blocking preference [Added] Information about non-filtered connections to the filtering log [Added] A custom file picker [Added] Add "Enable all" and "Disable all" to User Filter selection options [Added] A warning about moving the certificate to the system store [Added] A permanent notification when HAR, pcap or "record everything" logging level is enabled [Changed] User is now asked for confirmation before importing the settings file [Changed] HTTPS filtering warning is not showed anymore on Android 7+ when the certificate is in the system store [Changed] “Update available” notification made permanent [Fixed] App UI is distorted in Arabic [Fixed] AdGuard Notification Separator/Dot Size Issue on Samsung [Fixed] User login/password is missing from the HTTP proxy settings [Fixed] Wi-Fi icon disappearing when AdGuard is restarted

AdGuard til Android 2.11.31
Udgivelsesdato: 5. marts 2018
Hi everyone!
[Added] Extended AdGuard notification — an "Assistant" button
There are now two action buttons in the AdGuard notification. One is “Pause”, which pauses the protection upon tapping (tap again on the notification to resume it), but the more interesting one is “Assistant”. When you tap it, a list of recently used apps and websites will show up. Tap on any of them for more options, like opening filtering log, denying the app network access (or whitelisting/blacklisting in case of a website), or proceeding to the app/website-specific settings screen in Apps Management.
We believe this will save you quite a bit of time, especially if you are an active user and often find yourself in a need to pause protection, whitelist a website etc. In fact, we tested it ourselves and found it extremely convenient! :)
Ad blocking
[Fixed] Added support for $network exceptions rules [Changed] "ExtendedCss" module has been upgraded to v1.0.9
Networking
[Changed] Auto-proxy is reconfigured now on network state change [Changed] OpenNIC server address has been updated [Changed] NXDOMAIN answer (domain does not exist) is now used instead of 127.0.0.1 [Fixed] AdGuard is not capturing the mobile data usage correctly [Fixed] App traffic is blocked on Android 4.x even when it should not be filtered at all [Fixed] Manual VPN connections crash when AG is enabled [Fixed] Error on VPN reconfiguration: failed to bind TUN pcb [Fixed] IPv6 filtering does not work on Oreo 8.1 + Magisk [Fixed] Firewall temporary allowance notification is not displayed #966

Other
[Added] Integration with reporting web tool
This feature is already familiar to AdGuard for Windows, AdGuard for iOS and AdGuard browser extension users. Basically, this is a way to report any filtering-related issue on a page: missed ad, false positive etc. To do so, go to app’s side menu and select “Report an issue”. Instead of an immediate “Send a message to support” screen, you will get a dialog to select the type of issue. Choosing one of the filtering-related issues will open a web page and a wizard will take you step by step through the process of filling in the required information. Don’t worry, most of the fields will be pre-filled by the AdGuard app!
This way of reporting missed ads and such is beneficial to both filters developers and users — the former will get all the information they need to fix the problem, and latter will be sure that the issue will be resolved in the shortest amount of time possible.
[Added] New localizations — Spanish (Latin), Danish, Arabic [Fixed] Beta build doesn’t have "beta" update channel by default [Fixed] While app is in Russian, preview opens an EN version of Knowledgebase article instead of RU [Fixed] FAQ articles are not accessible when AdGuard is switched to Japanese [Fixed] First line of imported user filter rules is always interpreted as an actual rule [Fixed] Disabling net access for Android OS does not work [Fixed] Compatibility issues

Despite the relative proximity to the last AdGuard for Android release, we are ready to present the first beta already. We have discovered a rather pesky bug that causes automatic proxy to start very slowly on rooted devices — it required an immediate fix. Of course, a bunch of other less important changes were made along the way.
Ad blocking

AdGuard til Android 2.10.94
Udgivelsesdato: 22. september 2017
Important update notice:
Unfortunately, there is an issue with an update from the previous beta on Android 4 and Android 5 devices. If Adguard crashes after you try to install the update, please download the .apk file of the new beta here: https://www.adguard.com/apkb and update manually. 2.10.56 is the only version affected by this bug.
We are approaching the v2.10 release by creating this release candidate. Hopefully, it will be the last as well, but should any unnoticed bugs surface, another one will follow it. Anyway, here the major addition is the Battery usage stats screen. What it is, and why it was added is described right below. Aside from that, several minor UI changes and improvements to app's stability.
[Added] Battery usage stats screen
Historically, questions about AdGuard battery usage are among the most frequently asked ones. Sadly, Android distorts the battery consumption breakdown, attributing other apps' traffic and battery consumption to AdGuard. We've even written a detailed knowledgebase article that explains this issue.
To mitigate the misconception, we added a new screen called 'Battery usage'. You can access it by tapping on the battery icon in the top right corner of the main screen.
AdGuard battery usage Inside you will find a chart that shows the AdGuard battery resourse consumption within the last 24 hours, with an option to get more detailed hour-to-hour data by tapping on the dots on the chart. Besides that, there's also a numeric breakdown of the relevant data and a short technical explanation.
Ad blocking
[Added] /deep/ and ::shadow selectors support
Networking
[Changed] AdGuard now can handle compressed responses when downloading filters [Fixed] Old certificates are not purged properly [Fixed] The Onion (theonion.com) does not work with AdGuard enabled [Fixed] Error while generating a domain certificate [Fixed] If IP address is blocked by ISP, it is impossible to connect to the site even via proxy [Fixed] No internet connection after disabling DNS settings [Improved] The iptables rules have been reworked

AdGuard til Android 2.10.56
Udgivelsesdato: 31. august 2017
When we added new functions of custom DNS and proxy settings in the last beta, we, of course, expected that there will be at least some minor bugs or other things we had missed. In this new beta, we address them and even add some new stuff, like the option to export logs and system info into an archive. Details below, as usual.
[Added] Logs and system info export
This is a new addition to the 'Advanced settings'. Basically, after you tap it, the app grabs all current logs, packs it into an archive and asks you where to export it. It will be useful mostly for the forum and GitHub frequenters - for example when you report a bug and the support team member asks you to collect some logs. But it also can be helpful in certain tech support cases.
Adblocking
[Fixed] Native stack is not properly closed sometimes when AdGuard is auto-restarted [Fixed] AdGuard does not resume protection occasionally [Changed] Optimize DNS filtering statistics write
Networking
[Fixed] No internet connection when DNScrypt and 'record everything' logging level are enabled [Fixed] NPE in DnsUpstreamServer [Fixed] Alpha build segfaults when accessing some websites
UI
[Added] Export logs and system info [Added] Trim string when user enters new domain or rule into Whitelist/User filter [Fixed] Few issues with the new DNS sub-menu section [Fixed] Wrong padding in the DNS section [Fixed] Spelling issue in DNSCrypt [Fixed] Displaced titles in the 'Statistics' tab of the 'DNS' screen [Fixed] The search request is reset after keyboard is closed [Fixed] Make the log stop scrolling when reading it [Changed] Rework the HTTPS filtering settings section [Changed] Dialog windows should have min width [Changed] Change "Filtering log" status label text [Changed] Change AdGuard notification text 6.0+

AdGuard til Android 2.10.16
Udgivelsesdato: 16. august 2017
The time has come to publish a fresh update of AdGuard for Android! It brings quite a lot of fixes and also new exciting functionality: outbound proxy settings, DNS settings (including DNSCrypt) and more.
All these and other notable changes are described below in details:
[Added] Improved outbound proxy support
There is now a separate section for outbound proxy configuring in the main section of "Settings" menu, just above the "Advanced". You can now add, configure and use multiple proxies through AdGuard. Please note that only filtered apps' traffic is routed through AdGuard (which means it will only work for browsers in the free version). Also, DNS requests are not routed through proxies.
One related thing worthy of a separate mention: now it is very easy to set up Tor proxy via Orbot. Once you install Orbot, there will be a configured Tor proxy at the ready in the AdGuard proxy settings. Just enable Orbot in the notification bar, and you are good to go!
[Added] Improved DNS settings
We have also allocated a separate screen for DNS settings, you can find it in the side menu. You can add a custom DNS server, or select any public DNS provider from our list, including AdGuard DNS servers. No matter what server you choose, you can enable DNS filtering there.
Another great feature is DNSCrypt support. It is a special protocol that makes your DNS traffic secure, and we recommend to choose a DNS provider that supports DNSCrypt (by the way, AdGuard DNS does!).
Adblocking
[Added] Integration with the new network stack [Added] Integrate common URL filtering library
These words may appear a tad too techy, so let us explain. Behind the ad blocking process of every AdGuard app on every platform lies the same algorithm. This algorithm - network stack - has been significantly improved recently, its performance has been increased up to 3 times compared to old numbers. In this version we integrate the Android app with it and also with our new filtering library.
[Fixed] Unknown rule options [Fixed] Allow multiple filters to be enabled as language-specific at once [Added] Add support for browsers cloned by the "App Cloner [Added] Add EasyList Lithuanian filter [Changed] Upgrade "ExtendedCss" module to v1.0.8
Networking
[Fixed] Iptables redirect doesn't work for IPv6
IPv6 traffic is now routed through proxy when automatic proxy filtering mode is selected. Only works for Android 5.1 and higher.
[Fixed] Reinitialize VpnService when newly installed app should not be filtered [Fixed] Captured HAR is invalid [Fixed] Adguard cannot handle huge chunks properly [Fixed] Cryptography-code error [Changed] Add new filtered ports
UI
[Fixed] Firewall UI inconsistency [Fixed] Deleting a single rule from a search result removes all rules from the User Filter [Fixed] First string is imported as a rule even if it is a comment [Fixed] Subscription status description is misleading [Added] "Add new rule" button is missing in user filter [Added] Open links in a webview [Added] Open AdGuard by long-pressing on the tile icon [Added] Add an option to search in the filtering log [Added] Round icons support for Android 7.1 [Added] Add a checkbox "Overwrite existing rules" to the import user filter dialogue [Added] Show filters which blocked an element in the Filtering log

AdGuard til Android 2.9.134
Udgivelsesdato: 4. juli 2017
The last release candidate turned out to have a rather obnoxious bug: a crash while updating from beta v2.9.111 to v2.9.133 on Android 7 and Android O. The new update is a hotfix addressing this issue.
If you have trouble updating, please download the new version manually.
Note: there will be one more update later today. It will effectively carry no new changes: we need to test if the self-updater was actually resolved in v2.9.134 and the only way to test it is to release one more update.
[Fixed] Update fails on Android 7 and Android O #1308
AdGuard til Android 2.9.133
Udgivelsesdato: 29. juni 2017
Another update for the Android version featuring the rework of the User filter and other secondary changes and fixes. This build will become the new release version if everything goes as planned.
[Improved] The user filter has been reworked
Any experience of interacting with the previous incarnation of User filter could not be described with any other word but 'miserable'. It used to be clunky, unresponsive and slow. A lot has changed in this version.
First, the new design. It has become much cleaner.
We have combined all of the control elements - add a new rule, clear the filter, edit the filter, import and export - under one toolbar menu.
Second, you now have an option to enter the so-called "edit mode" that brings up the multiline text edit area. It is very handy if you need to copy/paste/delete multiple lines of text at once, or just edit several rules in a row without clicking on each and every one of them.
Finally, the general way it looks. Rules are color-differentiated depending on their type, comments are distinctively visible and every rule can be disabled and enabled back without having to delete and re-create it.
If you have any interest in creating and maintaining a list of your own rules, you are going to, without any doubt, welcome these changes. We, personally, are very excited! :)
Ad blocking
[Changed] The way we handle rules with $empty modifier [Fixed] $network modifier doesn't work [Fixed] Firefox nightly 64-bit is not recognized as a browser
Networking
[Changed] HTTPS is not filtered any more for Nougat targeted apps without network_security_config [Fixed] Android O compatibility issues [Fixed] VPN + IPv6 issue on Android 4.4.2 [Fixed] IPv4 mapped addresses bypass VPN [Fixed] Reconfiguring iptables on package add/replace leads to no internet [Fixed] App preview does not work

AdGuard til Android 2.9.111
Udgivelsesdato: 1. juni 2017
This is a hotfix for the beta-version 2.9.110, addressing critical errors.
Changelog for beta v2.9.111: this is the first beta after the v2.9 release, we've fixed some networking issues and improved ad blocking.

AdGuard til Android 2.9.64
Udgivelsesdato: 6. april 2017
Just one more release candidate, we promise! It features a new addition to advanced settings.
[Added] A new advanced preference: a list of networks which LAN should be filtered for
Initially, there was just a bug that prevented Adguard from filtering ads in Moscow subway Wi-Fi network. Turned out that wi-fi.ru is located inside of a LAN, which we exclude by default. Rather than making an exception for this particular network, we decided to choose a more broad approach and create a new preference.
AdGuard til Android 2.9.62
Udgivelsesdato: 4. april 2017
This is a (presumably) a very last release candidate, just to double-check everything before the tomorrow's release. It has close to no changes whatsoever.
AdGuard til Android 2.9.60
Udgivelsesdato: 30. marts 2017
A couple of bugs addressed in the previous RC turned out to not be fixed completely. This version tidies it up.
If the new version won't install, please clear the Adguard cache on the memory card.
[Fixed] Notification delay problem for Google services [Fixed] The pref.vpn.disable.pause setting is ignored
AdGuard til Android 2.9.53
Udgivelsesdato: 28. marts 2017
This RC contains the finishing touches before the imminent v2.9 release: new French filter, updated translations, and some minor bugfixes.
[Added] Adguard French filter [Changed] Translations were updated [Fixed] Disabling auto-pause on Android Nougat may cause a significant slowdown [Fixed] Amazon license check hangs while doing the background check [Fixed] Bugs on Android 4.0.3-4.0.4 [Fixed] Crash while updating Adguard [Fixed] Compatibility issues
AdGuard til Android 2.9.44
Udgivelsesdato: 23. marts 2017
As we prepare for the official release of v2.9, here's a release candidate with fixes to some, mostly minor, bugs. If all goes well, this version will become Adguard 2.9.
[Changed] Updated default HTTPS exclusions list [Changed] Locale-specific number format is used now on the main screen [Fixed] "Android OS" cannot be found in the "Apps Management" section [Fixed] Amazon license check hangs while doing the background check [Fixed] 'Learn more' button link resolves to an undefined page [Fixed] An attempt to get a license from within the app makes Adguard crash when there's no browser installed
AdGuard til Android 2.9.37
Udgivelsesdato: 17. marts 2017
This beta is nowhere near as rich of the new features as some of the latest releases, but it considerably improves the app's performance, speeds up many of the processes and fixes several bugs.
Networking
[Fixed] HTTPS filtering in Nougat-targeted apps [Improved] Active proxy connections closing time is reduced [Imporved] AG styles are protected from disabling now
UI
[Changed] 'Removed apps' package icons now appear inactive in the apps list [Fixed] Incorrect protection status is shown in side menu [Fixed] FAQ UI is broken on Android 5.1.1 when you highlight the text [Fixed] The quick settings tile doesn't highlight/shade when you toggle the protection [Improved] 'App details' activity is sped up considerably
Other
[Fixed] Compatibility issues [Fixed] Crash on the app update [Improved] UDP connections handling reworked
AdGuard til Android 2.9.17
Udgivelsesdato: 9. marts 2017
A follow-up to the recent beta, fixing one major issue and addressing several other bugs, including filtering log-related ones.
[Fixed] Adguard breaks GCM notifications
Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) is a service that enables developers to send messages between servers and client apps. It is required to inform a client app that there is new data to be fetched from the server. The bottom line is, it is crucial for many apps to operate normally.
The latest Adguard beta introduced a new pref.filtered.ports feature, which turned out to mess up with GCM, affecting a serious number of apps like Gmail, Whatsapp, Telegram etc. Here we fix this problem by changing the default filtered ports and ceasing the HTTPS decryption for ports different from 443.

Other

[Changed] Filtering log issues [Fixed] Cannot send MMS when Adguard is in Proxy+Auto filtering mode [Fixed] VpnService.prepare crashes due to XPosed module [Fixed] $replace rules aren't applied to .m3u8 files content ]Fixed] Filtering log crash [Fixed] Filtering log creates an incorrect rule for unblocking requests on some devices [Fixed] Compatibility issues [Improved] Navigation drawer is now accessible from any activity
AdGuard til Android 2.9.1
Udgivelsesdato: 2. marts 2017
Many (or at least some) of you remember the release of Adguard 2.5 almost a year ago, and how huge it was. It brought HTTPS filtering, UI changes, new localizations and much more. There has been nothing close to it ever since in terms of the amount and impact of changes. Obviously, the next big one was meant to be Adguard v3.0, but we feel like it is still going to take a while to release it, so we might as well implement some of the new features right away.
[Improved] New app navigation system
Alright, we realize that when it comes to changing the design, there's going to be a controversy. There will always be those who find it better than the old one, and there will always be those who don't. Our hope the majority of users will find the new navigation system more convenient.
What exactly has changed? There is now a side menu, which will help to navigate through the app more easily. Besides that, we can finally utilize the context menu in the top-right corner, you can find an example of this in 'Apps Management' section. By the way, 'Apps management' will now include all Firewall settings as well. Having these two sections together at the same time felt excessive and confusing.
[Added] Filtering Log
Oh, boy. Anyone who has ever tried to check what's being filtered/blocked knows the struggle of inspecting Adguard's log file. It was the only way, and I doubt there is a single user who found it convenient. No surprise, as it was initially meant to be used by filters developers only. We were thinking: "Why would anyone want to see what their apps do?". We completely ignored tech savvy people who do care about it and do want to have a complete control of what is going on on their device.
We'd like to apologize for this. We should have implemented filtering log functionality a long time ago. Well, better late than never. The filtering log has arrived, come and see for yourself. We don't expect to hit the nail on the head on the first try, so your feedback on what's lacking and what you can live without is invaluable.

Ad Blocking

[Added] $network basic rules modifier [Added] Support for exception rules [Changed] The behavior of the third-party modifier [Changed] Websites cache is now suppressed after filters change [Fixed] Regular expressions with $ symbol aren't processed properly

Networking

[Added] An option to not filter HTTPS on websites with "Extended Validation" certificate
Adguard for Windows users are familiar with this option already. Extended Validation SSL certificates grant that the owner of the certificate has gone through a very strict process of verification. The trust for such certificate owners is much higher - those are usually banks, other financial organizations etc. Often times there are zero or close to zero ads on their websites, and filtering them is excessive anyway - it only increases the chance to break something useful.
[Changed] VPN autopause is now disabled by default for new Android devices (Pixel, Nexus with Nougat):
From the beginning, the VPN autopause functionality was not "a feature". It is a workaround for some known Android issues and bugs. For example, tethering could not work along with a VPN, or Adguard's network access could be denied in power saving mode.
It seems that all these issues are sorted out in the newest Android devices, so we have disabled autopause functionality for them. You can turn it back ON in Adguard's low-level settings if needed.

UI

[Added] Bulk change functionality for the Apps Management section
Available from the context menu that we have already mentioned above, it grants a fast and easy access to the most common settings that can be applied to all apps at once.
[Changed] Aggregate all removed apps stats in one item [Changed] "Blocked" pages markup was updated [Changed] "Notification without icon" mode is made default for "Notification icon" setting [Fixed] Data stats are shown for Adguard app in Apps Management [Improved] pref.filtered.ports setting now can understand port ranges

Other

[Added] "Watchdog period" advanced setting
Depending on the firmware, Android might be very aggressive to background services, killing them really frequently. In Adguard case this aggressive behavior may be truly destructive. This feature starts a special "watchdog" service, which keeps Adguard's main process alive. However, it is disabled by default as most of the Android devices do not suffer from the "random process killing" issue.
[Added] Hungarian filter [Added] ABVPN filter [Changed] 'Update only over WiFi' option is grayed out when automatic filters update is disabled [Fixed] Compatibility issues [Fixed] 'Filters autoupdate period' graying out bug [Fixed] Premium license expiration notification is shown after the first installation
AdGuard til Android 2.8.58
Udgivelsesdato: 23. november 2016
Looking forward to Adguard v2.8, today we push out a release candidate. A couple of leftover bugs were fixed, several other changes and improvements were made.
[Changed] Some localizations were updated [Changed] YuBrowser and Brave browser added to the browser list [Fixed] $app modifier is ignored when HTML content is being filtered [Fixed] HTML filtering rules with wildcard attribute can not be parsed [Improved] HTTPS is now used for safebrowsing service requests [Improved] Adguard styles are now protected from removal

Udgivelsesdato: 16. november 2016
Hello! Supposedly, this is the last beta version before v2.8 release. We bring some new toys for advanced users and, as usual, more compatibility fixes.

Ad Blocking

[Added] pref.root.clear.youtube low-level flag
This option will allow rooted users to automate removing Youtube app data, which appears to be crucial for blocking ads in it.
[Fixed] Adguard does not filter HTTPS in Youtube
[Fixed] $replace modifier breaks content charset

Networking

[Added] pref.vpn.ipv4.bypass low-level setting
If this option is enabled, Adguard will ignore all IPv4 connections. This might appear wierd and unnecessary, but in reality it allows to use Adguard as a 'DNS-level' ad blocker. You only need to enable the following options: pref.vpn.ipv4.bypass, pref.vpn.ipv6.bypass, DNS requests filtering and Adguard DNS filter (the latter is not crucial, but will help immensely with blocking ads in browsers). Adguard will cease filtering other apps' traffic, and will only block ad domains on the DNS requests level. As a result, ad blocking quality will drop and Firewall functionality will not be available, but also there will be close to zero performance penalty.

Other issues

[Fixed] 'Filter autoupdate period' is now item inactive when 'Autoupdate filters' option is disabled
[Fixed] No 4G connection after WiFi is disabled
[Fixed] Divider between 'Autoupdate filters' and 'Filters autoupdate period' is displaced on some devices
[Fixed] System apps are not listed in Apps management section
[Fixed] Different stats on the main screen and inside of 'Apps Management'
[Fixed] Adguard app is "disabled" in Apps Management, but some data stats for it can be seen

AdGuard til Android 2.8.40
Udgivelsesdato: 3. november 2016
Hello! This beta has a little bit of everything - some new additions (like DNS filter and $important modifier), some compatibility and other fixes, as well as some quality of life improvements (e.g. you can now customize update check period for filters).

Ad Blocking

[Added] Adguard DNS filter
Fresh addition to the Adguard filters family. Adguard DNS filter is composed of several filters (English filter, Social media filter, Spyware filter, Mobile ads filter, EasyList and EasyPrivacy), modified for better DNS filtering. It blocks ads and trackers wherever it is possible to indicate own DNS addresses. Note that it will block the whole domains and not the specific URLs. You can learn more about DNS blocking by visiting this page.
[Changed] "Filter DNS requests" feature is now available for non-premium users
With Adguard DNS introduced and being free, there is no point in keeping this Adguard for Android feature paid. Now it will be equally accessible for all users alike. There is still plenty of good stuff in the Premium version of the app :)
[Added] $important modifier [Added] A new low-level setting: "pref.boot.startup.delay" [Changed] Armorfly Browser added to the list of browsers filtered by default [Improved] Users are now allowed to select filters update check period

AdGuard til Android 2.8.1
Udgivelsesdato: 12. oktober 2016
Hello! This beta ends our 2-months 'break'. But we were not sitting on our hands - just look at the changelog. A lot of new additions and fixes to old bugs. Notably, we added the support for extended CSS. Why is it so important? If you use Adguard for Windows, you should already know. Otherwise, just read the release notes.

Ad Blocking

[Added] Support for Extended CSS and Extended Selectors
Extended CSS support is a very important addition in terms of future (and present) possibilities that it opens for ad blocking. Extended CSS is a module for applying CSS styles with extended selection properties. Basically, it means that we will be able to select and, therefore, block some elements that we would not be able to block otherwise. Currently we support following pseudo-classes: -ext-has ( :has ), -ext-contains ( :contains ), -ext-matches-css ( :matches-css ).
'Extended selector' is a technical term, but what hides behind it? With extended selectors support, we can much more easily create some rules that were very, very hard to create earlier. Notably, this concerns rules required to block such things as 'Sponsored posts' on Facebook.
[Added] 'pref.filtered.ports' added to low level settings - advanced users can now add new ports to filter [Added] $websocket content type modifier - it will enable to use rules written exclusively for WebSocket connections [Added] $important rule modifier [Fixed] Inconsistent behavior of $image rule modifier [Improved] Increased content filtering rules maximum length limit [Improved] HAR file writer, which is used for debugging purposes [Improved] QUIC-connections blocking for the Chrome browser

UI

[Added] 'Installation date' to the app details screen [Added] A Quick Settings tile for Android N and up [Changed] Apps Management screen is automatically updated when new app is installed - no need to restart Adguard anymore [Changed] 'Apps and Statistics' section renamed to 'Apps Management' and brought to the main menu [Fixed] Time format on main screen now follows system settings [Improved] Filter editor now recognizes lines starting with "!" as commentaries in user-imported filters

Networking

[Added] VPN restart feature [Changed] IPv4 connections now have priority over IPv6 connections [Fixed] Wi-Fi calling for AT&T [Fixed] Issue with traffic slipping through firewall [Improved] Adguard automatically detects when Adguard's certificate is moved to system certificate storage (Helps with https filtering in Android N+)

Minor

Networking

[Added] An option to disable network connectivity when the screen is off

AdGuard til Android 2.7.151
Udgivelsesdato: 15. juli 2016
This beta comes with several noticeable changes like new $app modifier or Firewall screen redesign. Find the details below.

UI

[Added] 'Apps & Statistics' settings section
We decided to seriously redesign our Firewall section. There will be no more 'Apps & Settings' sub-section inside 'Firewall'. Instead, we introduce a whole new first-level section named 'Apps & Statistics'. It very much resembles the now gone 'Apps & Settings' but has some differences. For example, we got rid of 'global' switches - these buttons were too misleading. Also, you can now disable network access when the screen is off, and you can configure it for each app separately. Another big change is disposal of exclusions lists. Now you can simply add an app to exceptions through the 'Apps and Statistics' screen. There are other changes too, and we will not list them all here. We believe the new layout is more intuitive and you will have no troubles navigating through it. Important note: this is not yet a big redesign we plan to do in Adguard 3.0. Only the tip of the iceberg :)
[Changed] Instead of stopping protection on settings change, show a toast message [Changed] When user changes default firewall settings, ask him if he wants to reset per-app settings [Changed] Show notification when VPN is revoked [Fixed] Adguard closes if you swipe it with 'No icon' notification setting

Ad Blocking

[Added] $app modifier
This modifier will be useful for advanced users who create their own custom rules. It allows both blocking ads in a specific app and blocking ads everywhere except for that app. For example, Facebook uses same domains for both ads and useful stuff. This modifier allows to block facebook ads in other apps without breaking the Facebook app itself.
[Fixed] Detect if app targets Android N
Due to Android N security policy, HTTPs filtering is impossible for apps developed specifically for Android N, or other apps where user-installed certificates are not trusted. Previously that could lead to errors and app crashes. Now Adguard detects if app targets Android N and does not filter HTTPS for such apps.
[Improved] Increase content filtering rules maximum length limit

Compatibility

From now on it will be much easier for users to add any app to exclusions. No need to go to low-level settings anymore, just open the apps screen in 'Apps and Statistics' and add it to exclusions from there.
[Changed] Mountainview and Itau added to https exclusions [Changed] com.yik.yak app added to https exclusions [Changed] Box app added to https exclusions [Changed] Amazon apps added to https exclusions [Changed] com.jet.jet.app is broken with https filtering [Fixed] MeetMe compatibility issue [Fixed] Moovit app is not compatible with https filtering

Udgivelsesdato: 2. juni 2016

Here’s what’s new in this beta version

Ad Blocking

[Added] Annoyances filter
We have decided to create a new separate filter for irritating elements that disturb users or interfere with web surfing. As you may know, we already have a Social media filter that removes numerous social media widgets and different buttons – “Like”, “Share”, “Tweet” etc. (we are sure you have noticed how many of them are on certain websites). Our new filter will go further in making your surfing even more comfortable.
You can learn more about it in our blog: https://adguard.com/en/blog/annoyances-filter.html

AdGuard til Android 2.6.23
Udgivelsesdato: 20. maj 2016
This beta version brings a number of very important changes to Adguard. Along with the new features, this build contains fixes for some major bugs (like no ad blocking in Youtube on Android N). Attention: we did not test this build on x86, so if you experience any troubles or crashes, please report to us.
Here’s what’s new in v2.6.23 beta
Upstream proxy settings: #51
One of the most asked questions about Adguard is "can I use it with another VPN?". The usual answer was "no, you can't have two VPN running together (unless you have root and use AG in proxy mode)". I am very excited to announce, that today we have brought a new solution suitable for non-rooted devices.
Does this allow you to use two VPNs at the same time? No, unfortunately this is still impossible. However, most popular VPN providers allow you to use proxy instead and that's what you can do now with Adguard.
For instance, if you are a PIA VPN (https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/) user, you now can setup Adguard to use their SOCKS5 proxy. Learn more about it here: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/client-support (scroll down until you see "SOCKS5 proxy" link).
You may want to use TOR along with Adguard and it is also possible now! Here is a short instruction on how to setup Adguard to work with Orbot: Proxy with Tor (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.torproject.android).
Run Orbot.
Open Adguard.
Go to Settings - Advanced, open Proxy settings.
Select SOCKS4 proxy type, set host to 127.0.0.1 and port to 9050.
That's it, run Adguard protection and all your traffic is now going through TOR.
One more thing worth noticing is that Adguard is the only way to use proxy when you are on mobile data. Android just does not provide such possibility.
HTTPS filtering performance: #501
One more popular question was about download speed drop over HTTPs. HTTPs filtering is a heavy operation, so that was expected. What was unexpected to us is that some services like Google Play may download apps over HTTPs. So, we have greatly optimized the filtering speed. On our test device it has increased in 5-10 times!
Custom DNS servers: #139
With Adguard you can now override system DNS settings and use any DNS servers you like. Just as with proxy settings, Android does not allow you to do it when you are on mobile data, so Adguard is your only option. To do it: go to Settings - Advanced - Low-level settings - tap pref.vpn.dns and enter DNS servers addresses (one per line).

AdGuard til Android 2.5.70
Udgivelsesdato: 24. marts 2016
This beta release of Adguard for Android is a real milestone. We finally add long-awaited HTTPS filtering! This is a 'bomb' of this beta release, but we have some less important fixes and changes as well.

HTTPS filtering

Previously quite a bit of ads were missed by Adguard, specifically those that used HTTPS protocol to load - simply because Adguard couldn't filter HTTPS traffic.
Now these days are over. To enable HTTPS filtering, go to Adguard settings -> HTTPS filtering. Put checkmark besides 'Install certificate' to install certificate, then enable 'Filter HTTPS connections' and you are good to go.
Unfortunately, such power doesn't come with no price; there are few minor drawbacks. First, you will need to set a password or a lockscreen pattern. This is a system requirement with no workarounds. Second, you will get a 'Network may be monitored' notification after enabling HTTPS filtering and after each device reboot. This notification, however, can be swiped away.
Worth mentioning that if you have root access, you can manually add to and remove our certificate from System certificates storage. You can learn more about it in #334 (but please read all comments there).
Last but not least we would like to talk about different modes we have for new feature. Two major modes it has are 'Filter only blacklist' and 'Filter all domains except for whitelist'. In first mode, Adguard will filter HTTPS connections to the domains from the blacklist only. In the second mode, all HTTPS connections to all domains will be filtered, except for domains from the whitelist.

Blocking ads in Youtube app

We decided to mention this as a separate topic since it was one of, if not the most popular questions: why Adguard doesn't block ads in YouTube app? The answer was, because YouTube app uses HTTPS protocol to load ads, and Adguard wasn't able to filter HTTPS traffic. Now it can, and now these ads are blocked.

Languages and translations

[Added] Finnish language [Added] Hungarian language [Added] Chinese Traditional language

Compatibility issues

[Fixed] Fixed an issue with Telegram app [Fixed] Fixed an issue with Yandex Navigator

Other changes

[Changed] Added RelayForReddit Pro to the list of browsers (you don't need premium to block ads in this app) [Changed] Improved HTML content detection [Fixed] AG code is injected into "noscript" tag [Fixed] Error while parsing a style tag with embedded svg (lifehacker.com issue) [Fixed] com.project.materialmessaging and com.osp.app.signin are added to exclusions [Fixed] Issue with wrong stats calculated for apps listed in "pref.net.exclusions" [Fixed] Wrong Firewall traffic stats [Fixed] Fixed a bug with filtering of the apps from exceptions list [Fixed] Add com.google.android.apps.adwords to exclusions [Fixed] An issue with blocking POST requests and "keep-alive" HTTP connections

Network

[Fixed] "Filter DNS requests" feature does not work with mobile connection.
We have improved "Filter DNS requests" feature, now it is much more reliable and works for both Wi-Fi and Mobile connection. This feature may drastically improve the battery usage so I recommend beta testers to try it.

UI changes

[Changed] Change Mb to MB in firewall data statistics. [Changed] "Protection paused" notification should not have high priority in Android 4.X.

Minor changes

[Fixed] Wi-Fi direct does not work with Adguard on Samsung devices. [Fixed] Always return status=500 for blocked requests.
AdGuard til Android 2.1.338
Udgivelsesdato: 16. december 2015

UI changes

[Added] New "Notification Icon" setting option: "Notification without icon"
So now we now have 4 options:
Default icon. Icon and notification are always visible.
Colored icon (only in Android 4.X). Icon and notification are always visible.
Notification without icon. Icon is not visible. Permanent notification is visible, but it has low priority, so it is semi-transparent and placed below all other notifications. 4 None. No icon, no notification.
[Changed] Make "Protection paused" a permanent notification
This change should help with issue #223. When Adguard pauses protection, sometimes Android may kill it's process and then do not bring it back.

Minor changes

[Changed] Use keyboard settings to detect default language-specific filters [Fixed] Tethering/hotspot is falsely detected (second try) [Fixed] T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling issue [Fixed] Error while sending feedback [Fixed] Sites with Transfer-Encoding=chunked are broken in "Simplified" filtering mode [Changed] Add Link Bubble Browser to the browsers list [Changed] Improve release notes layout
