AdGuard für iOS 4.5.3
Veröffentlicht am: 12. April 2024
Diese Version bringt wichtige Verbesserungen für den DNS-Schutz: Dank des DnsLibs-Updates gibt es keine DNS-Lecks und keine instabilen Verbindungen mehr, wenn man das Netzwerk wechselt. Wir haben auch zwei andere Bibliotheken aktualisiert, die für die Leistung der App wichtig sind: TSUrlFilter und Scriptlets. Ab dieser Version unterstützt AdGuard für iOS nur noch iOS 13 oder höher.
Änderungsprotokoll
Scriptlets (Zusätzliche JavaScript-basierte Filterregeln) auf v1.10.25 aktualisiert
TSUrlFilter (Filter-Engine für erweiterten Schutz) auf v2.2.18 aktualisiert
DnsLibs (DNS-Filter-Engine) auf v2.5.17 aktualisiert #2314
Diese Aktualisierung bringt die folgenden Änderungen:

Sonstiges
AdGuard für iOS 4.5.2
Veröffentlicht am: 11. Dezember 2023
In dieser Version haben wir die HTTP-Standardauthentifizierung für DNS-over-HTTPS hinzugefügt. Dies ist nützlich, wenn Sie Ihren eigenen DNS-Server haben und nicht möchten, dass andere ihn nutzen. Allerdings gibt es einen kleinen Haken: Derzeit unterstützen nur wenige DNS-Server diese Funktion. Aber bald werden sie in AdGuard Home und AdGuard DNS verfügbar sein, also bleiben Sie dran!

AdGuard für iOS 4.5.1
Veröffentlicht am: 2. November 2023
Dieses Update hat zwar keine großen Änderungen, aber sie sind dennoch wichtig. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass wir anscheinend einen Fehler in iOS 17 gefunden haben, der ein Nebenprodukt der Vorbereitungen für dieses Update war.
Safari, was ist mit dem versprochenen Limit von 150k für Sperrregeln?
Der Fokus lag auf der Lösung eines Problems auf iOS 17, bei dem sich die Filter ständig aktualisierten, ohne wirklich aktualisiert zu werden. Und was für eine Überraschung! Es stellte sich heraus, dass das zugrundeliegende Problem auf der Seite von iOS lag: Die Verwendung unseres Safari-Inhaltsblockers mit 150.000 Filterregeln führte plötzlich zu Abstürzen unter iOS 17. Wir haben festgestellt, dass dies darauf zurückzuführen war, dass Safari Dateien ab einer bestimmten Größe nicht mehr akzeptierte — selbst Inhaltsblocker mit 40-60k Regeln (also dreimal kleiner als die Grenze) stürzten manchmal ab, je nachdem, welche Regeln sie enthielten.
Als vorübergehende Maßnahme haben wir die Größe unserer JSON-Dateien begrenzt und die Hauptfilter so optimiert, dass sie den neuen Größenanforderungen entsprechen. Sollte ein Inhaltsblocker immer noch zu groß für Safari sein (die endgültige Größe hängt davon ab, wie viele und welche Filter aktiviert sind), wird er automatisch verkleinert, damit zumindest ein Teil der Regeln, die den Größenanforderungen entsprechen, angewendet werden kann.
Da es sich um einen offensichtlichen Fehler in iOS 17 handelt, haben wir ihn bereits im Apple-Forum gemeldet.
Lesen Sie unsere Wutrede zu diesem Thema im AdGuard-Blog.
Weitere Verbesserungen
Wir haben auch die Abhängigkeiten von SafariConverterLib, Scriptlets und TSUrlFilter aktualisiert. Dies trägt dazu bei, die Filterqualität auf einem hohen Niveau zu halten, was bedeutet, dass die Sperrregeln effizient und aktuell sind. SafariConverterLib konvertiert AdGuard-Filterregeln in Safari-Inhaltsblocker-Regeln, Scriptlets und TSUrlFilter helfen bei der Implementierung von Erweiterten Sperren in AdGuard für iOS.
Zu guter Letzt, noch zwei Dinge: DnsLibs v2.3 verbessert die Leistung und Stabilität von DNS-over-HTTP/3 und wir haben auch das Problem behoben, bei dem sich AdGuard unter iOS 13.x nicht öffnen ließ.

AdGuard für iOS 4.5.0
Veröffentlicht am: 5. Juli 2023
Wir kündigen AdGuard v4.5 für iOS an — mit wichtigen Änderungen und neuen Funktionen.
Systemweiter Tracking-Schutz
AdGuard v4.5 für iOS bietet jetzt einen systemweiten Tracking-Schutz, mit dem Sie In-App-Tracker blockieren können, die unbemerkt Nutzerdaten sammeln. Auf diese Errungenschaft sind wir echt stolz.
In dieser Version haben wir Statistiken über blockierte Anfragen hinzugefügt (siehe Registerkarte Aktivität). Wir haben die Zähler auf dem Hauptbildschirm geändert, um anzuzeigen, wie viele Tracker blockiert und wie viel Datenverkehr gespeichert wurde.
Außerdem, wenn Sie nun AdGuard für iOS installieren oder die Einstellungen auf die Standardwerte zurücksetzen, wird AdGuard DNS-Filter bereits aktiviert. Was bedeutet das für Sie? Wenn Sie DNS-Schutz aktivieren, wird AdGuard automatisch Werbung und Tracker in allen Apps blockieren — nicht nur in Safari. Es spielt keine Rolle, welchen Server Sie verwenden — der DNS-Traffic wird in jedem Fall gefiltert.
Unterstützung von DNS-over-HTTP/3
In AdGuard v4.5 für iOS haben wir im Rahmen des DnsLibs-Updates Unterstützung für DNS-over-HTTP/3 hinzugefügt. DNS-over-HTTP/3 ist eine neuere Version des DNS-over-HTTPS-Protokolls. AdGuard ist einer der ersten, der es unterstützt, zusammen mit Google und Cloudflare.
Außerdem wird der DNS-Filter von AdGuard jetzt standardmäßig eingeschaltet, wenn Sie den DNS-Schutz aktivieren. Das bedeutet, dass Sie sofort nach der Installation und bei der ersten Aktivierung des Schutzes Werbung blockieren können.

AdGuard für iOS 4.4.6
Veröffentlicht am: 11. April 2023
Der Frühling ist die Zeit der Erneuerung, und die Produkte von AdGuard sind da keine Ausnahme.
Wir haben alle Bibliotheken, die in der App verwendet werden, aktualisiert und an der Benutzeroberfläche gearbeitet — jetzt funktioniert AdGuard für iOS besser und ist einfacher zu bedienen.
Beschleunigung der erweiterten Blockierregeln
Die Funktion Erweiterter Schutz ist etwas, auf das wir sehr stolz sind und was uns von anderen Inhaltsblockern für iOS unterscheidet. Mit diesem Modul kann AdGuard für iOS erweiterte Filterregeln anwenden, die die Standardregeln zum Blockieren von Inhalten in Safari ergänzen und dabei helfen, komplexe und verschlüsselte Werbung effektiv zu bekämpfen.
Aufgrund der Besonderheiten von iOS war die Funktion Erweiterter Schutz im Vergleich zu anderen Versionen von AdGuard jedoch immer eingeschränkt. Zum Beispiel wurden einige Regeln deutlich später als das Laden der Seite angewendet. Dies führte manchmal zu einem „Flackern“ der Werbung, da sie erst nach dem Laden der Seite ausgeblendet wurde. In anderen Fällen wurde dadurch sogar verhindert, dass bestimmte Anzeigen blockiert wurden.
Bei der Vorbereitung der neuen Version von AdGuard für iOS haben wir uns sehr bemüht, die Implementierung von erweiterten Blockierregeln zu beschleunigen, was die Gesamtleistung der App direkt verbessert hat. Wir hoffen, Sie werden den Unterschied bemerken.
Native Unterstützung für die Pseudoklasse :has()
Mit Safari v16.4 haben Inhaltsblocker die Möglichkeit erhalten, Elemente auszuwählen, die mit der Pseudoklasse
:has() ausgeblendet werden sollen. Das mag zwar komplex und verwirrend klingen, aber es ist wichtig zu wissen, dass diese Funktion für uns unglaublich wichtig ist. Sie ermöglicht die Auswahl von Werbeblöcken auf der Grundlage ihres Inhalts.Bis zu AdGuard v4.4.6 für iOS war die Unterstützung der Pseudo-Klasse
:has() Teil des Moduls Erweiterter Schutz, das nur in der kostenpflichtigen Version verfügbar ist. Jetzt ist diese Funktionalität für alle Nutzer von AdGuard für iOS verfügbar!Änderungsprotokoll

Veröffentlicht am: 8. Mai 2022
Dürfen wir vorstellen: AdGuard v4.4.0 für iOS! In diesem Release haben wir nur einen, doch unglaublich ärgerlichen Fehler behoben — es ging darum, dass das DNS-Filtermodul Netzwerkänderungen falsch bearbeitete. Nun funktioniert alles ohne Störungen, und wir können uns endlich (für ein Weilchen) ausruhen. Wir hoffen, die neue Version wird Ihnen gefallen.

AdGuard für iOS 4.3.3
Veröffentlicht am: 2. März 2022
Dieses Update ist klein aber fein: wir haben mehrere Fehler behoben, was auf jeden Fall die Arbeit von AdGuard verbessern wird. In dieser Version haben wir die DNS-Filterung optimiert, sodass sie auch bei schwacher Internetverbindung stabiler läuft. Wir haben außerdem ein Fehler mit der Filteraktualisierung unter iOS 15.4 Beta und Probleme mit der Arbeit im Hintergrund behoben. Und wir haben noch ein paar Kleinigkeiten verbessert, um die Nutzung von AdGuard komfortabler zu machen.

AdGuard für iOS 4.3.2
Veröffentlicht am: 7. Februar 2022
Not all our updates are flashy and eye-catching, but they all make AdGuard better. So, meet AdGuard v4.3.2 for iOS — right from the oven. In this release we've mainly focused on improving the app’s performance and fixing minor bugs. You'll probably notice that AdGuard now starts faster than before.

AdGuard für iOS 4.3.1
Veröffentlicht am: 29. Dezember 2021
In this update we make an emphasis on fixing the bugs that we let through in the v4.3. Besides that, despite the very little amount of time that had passed since the previous update, we managed to make some changes that tangibly improve the overall quality of the app.
AdGuard für iOS 4.3.0
Veröffentlicht am: 23. Dezember 2021
It's time for the long-awaited release of AdGuard v4.3 for iOS. We've implemented support for AdGuard’s Safari Web Extension for iOS 15 and added Advanced protection. Never before has AdGuard for iOS blocked ads so effectively!
[Enhancement] Safari Web Extension for iOS 15
The AdGuard Web Extension for Safari serves to enhance the capabilities of the AdGuard for iOS app. With this extension, AdGuard can apply Advanced protection to better block ads in Safari, including YouTube ads, thanks to an improved filtering mechanism.
We’ve also performed a complete code refactoring and added an option to choose the filter update check interval in Low-level settings. And, of course, we fixed a few minor bugs in the process.
We hope you will enjoy AdGuard v4.3 for iOS!

Veröffentlicht am: 21. September 2021
A minor update. We changed one line to be consistent with iOS 15.
Our current focus is v4.3; it has a cool innovative feature that augments ad blocking quality. We intend to release it in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!
AdGuard für iOS 4.2.1
Veröffentlicht am: 6. August 2021
This is a rather small update. We stopped a nasty bug in its track: DNSLibs used to return an error after an attempt to add a DNS-over-QUIC server. Now it’s fixed, so you can live in peace and use the app that has become even more bug-free. Plus, a bunch of crashes are dealt with.
[Enhancement] Update DnsLibs to 1.6.20 #1802
AdGuard für iOS 4.2.0
Veröffentlicht am: 10. Juni 2021
In this version we focused on improving filtering in Safari. In parallel, we solved the problem with YouTube ads that AdGuard users had been encountering. We’ve developed two ways to block them: a shortcut, the instructions for which can be found on our blog, and a Safari extension.
[Enhancement] Added a new action extension for blocking YouTube ads in Safari #1763
The new extension is designed specifically to block ads on YouTube in Safari and runs only there. Unlike the shortcut, the extension is built into the app, so you don’t need to install it manually. To block ads on YouTube, tap the “Share” button and select “Block ads on YouTube (by AdGuard).” After that, the “with AdGuard” caption will appear next to the YouTube logo. If it’s not there, you’ve probably reloaded the page and need to activate the extension again.

AdGuard für iOS 4.1.0
Veröffentlicht am: 18. Februar 2021
Long time ago scientists discovered an interesting phenomenon. While we typically think that what we most want is to actually get what we want, the most intense source of pleasure is in looking forward to getting what we want. That's the dopamine system, also known as the wanting system.
It's been months since Apple added native DNS encryption support to iOS and you might've thought that we at AdGuard just have been lazy not adding support too? Not at all! We've just been trying to follow science and provide you with as much pleasure as possible. Finally, the intensification period ends and catharsis begins!
Native support for encrypted DNS #1589
So in 2020 Apple platforms started natively supporting encrypted DNS. Namely, two protocols were supported — DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS (DoT and DoH). Earlier you could set up and manage DNS profiles in AdGuard. Yet, the solution wasn’t so snorky. Now we've made things simple: there is no need to download and install DNS profiles, just enable Native implementation in AdGuard for iOS settings:
The new method of setting up DNS isn't really superior to the one you're already familiar with, but it has one slight advantage: the DNS is handled by the system and not the app. This means that AdGuard doesn't have to create a local VPN. Sadly, this will not help you circumvent system restrictions and use AdGuard alongside other VPN-based applications — if any VPN is enabled, native DNS is ignored. Consequently, you won't be able to filter traffic locally or to use our brand new DNS-over-QUIC protocol (DoQ).
Social login 📲 #1507
Now the Google login widget is present in the app (AdGuard > Settings > License > Login). A single click on a Google Sign-in button, and you're there!
For a successful login, you should have an AdGuard account registered to your Google email address. Otherwise, there will be an error.
Don't have an AdGuard account? Create one at my.adguard.com first, then you'll be able to bind it to your Google account.
Low-level stuff. ☢ For geeks only!! 🤓
Blocking mode, Block IPv6, Blocked response TTL, Bootstrap and Fallback servers — all settings on this screen are new, except for the Tunnel mode.
Bootstrap and Fallback
Fallback is simply a backup DNS server. If you chose a DNS server and something happened to it (whatever the reason), a fallback is needed to set the backup DNS server until the main server responds.
With Bootstrap, it’s a little more complicated. For AdGuard for iOS to use a custom secure DNS server, our app needs to get its IP address first. For this purpose, the system DNS is used by default, but sometimes this is not possible for various reasons. In such cases, Bootstrap could be used to get the IP address of the selected secure DNS server. Here are two examples to illustrate when a custom Bootstrap server might help:
When a system default DNS server does not return the IP address of a secure DNS server and it is not possible to use a secure one.
When our app and third-party VPN are used simultaneously and it is not possible to use System DNS as a Bootstrap.
Block IPv6 🔒 #1289
For any DNS query sent to get an IPv6 address, our app returns an empty response (as if this IPv6 address does not exist). Now there is an option not to return IPv6 addresses.
Does anybody actually read these? ┬──┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)
AdGuard für iOS 4.0.4
Veröffentlicht am: 15. Dezember 2020
This release is mainly focused on bug fixes and minor improvements. Yet, it has a feature that one can’t ignore — DNS-over-QUIC support!
[Other] DNS-over-QUIC support (AdGuard DNS)
The first thing you should know about DNS-over-QUIC (DoQ) is that it's a new encryption protocol. Not as new as a concept, but very new in terms of practical application. In fact, AdGuard introduced the very first public DNS servers that support DoQ! The feature is still experimental — AdGuard for iOS is one of the first open-source implementations of DNS-over-QUIC — but it's perfectly functioning and we encourage you to try it.
The most common DNS encryption protocols are DNS-over-HTTPS and DNS-over-TLS (DoH and DoT correspondingly). What makes DoQ special? A bunch of things: out-of-the-box encryption, reduced connection times, and better performance in cases of lost data packets.

Veröffentlicht am: 18. August 2020
AdGuard v4.0.2 for iOS is more focused on bug fixes, yet it has some important changes. We’ve made UI improvements, redesigned the menu logic and added one more DNS server to Cloudflare. A small, but much-needed release – the first one after the long-awaited AdGuard Pro update.

AdGuard für iOS 4.0.0
Veröffentlicht am: 12. Mai 2020
After a long struggle and countless iterations we're finally ready to present AdGuard v4.0 for iOS! It's a huge update with many, many new features, design changes, bugfixes and whatnot. Let's not forget about DNS protection: a way to have full control over DNS traffic on your device. Let's check it out:
Major design changes
Traditionally, a major version increase heralds a lot of changes regarding the UI. This time is not an exception. And we really mean a lot!
General design changes: new icon styles, new menu logic, revamped main screen
Advanced mode: additional settings for advanced users. Use at your own risk!
Activity feed: DNS requests log, exhaustive request details.
Most active companies: not only you now can see to which company this or that DNS request belongs, you can view the "leaderboard" on the 'Most active compoanies' screen, accessible from the activity feed.
It might take a bit to get used to for the veterans, but at the same time we hope it will come very natural to new users.
Enhanced DNS protection #1107
In addition to familiar DNS functionality you now can add mobile network or certain Wi-Fi networks to exclusions. For example, you can use it if you have AdGuard Home set up for your home Wi-Fi.
Also, by enabling 'Advanced mode' you get access to DNS filtering: add custom hosts files or filters like AdGuard SDN filter to have more agency over your DNS traffic.
New AdGuard widget #973
Now AdGuard for iOS gets its own widget, just like AdGuard Pro. Look at this beauty:
It does everything you want: provides quick access to DNS protection and Safari content blocking switches, displays current DNS server and statistics. You barely need to open the app itself!
General statistics #1325
Another previously AdGuard Pro-exclusive feature that all AdGuard for iOS users will now be able to enjoy. A curious toy for some, an instrument to control your traffic for others — everyone will find it amusing, if not useful. You’ll find the stats on the main screen of the app:
Switch between all-time, monthly, weekly or daily stats and between all or blocked requests.
Changelog
[Bug] Content Blockers screen shows User Filter as loaded even when it’s off #1287
[Bug] When reporting a website via the Action extension, the URL of the reported website is not automatically inserted #1288
[Bug] Unable to change DNS type from DoH to anything else #1347

AdGuard für iOS 3.1.0
Veröffentlicht am: 19. September 2019
Apple tries to steal our thunder with their iOS 13 release, but we stay calm, as we’re sure: AdGuard 3.1 for iOS is big news! There are many noteworthy improvements to filtering process, design and licensing system. Let’s tackle the new version one change at a time.
[Added] New content blocker — Security #1103
In v3.0 we “split up” AdGuard for iOS into five content blockers to circumvent the Safari limitation on 50k rules per ad blocker (which is a ridiculously small number). Each of the content blockers was assigned a specific role, for example, “Privacy” or “Annoyances”. But then we thought: the more content blockers, the more rules you can use at the same time, right? So why not add another one? And we didn’t have to go out of our way for that, as “Security” is a category that organically complements the rest. Previously, filters from that category were included into “Other” group.
Note that you need to enable this new content blocker in Safari settings for it to work!
[Added] “Content blockers” screen #1105
It’s surely irritating when you have to go to Safari settings to check what filter groups are enabled and what are not. We know this from personal experience. The logical solution was to add a new screen right to AdGuard settings, which we did. Go to General settings > Content blockers to see the current state. You’ll even find there what filters exactly are enabled and how many rules each content blockers has used up.
[Improved] Protection status notification on the main screen #1106
This is another change that was so easy to make that it left us wonder why we didn’t make it earlier. Before v3.1, if any one content blocker was disabled, the main screen screamed at you with a red “Protection is disabled” warning, which is of course not true. Now it will let you know in a less alarming yellow color that “some content blockers are disabled”. We care about your mental health :D
[Improved] Content blocker affinity #1104
And here’s a very important change that affects the quality of the actual ad blocking. Some filtering rules depend on each other or work better together. There’s been a problem in cases when such rules belonged to different content blockers. They weren’t always working as intended, even if both content blockers were enabled. Now that it’s fixed, the quality of ad blocking will go further up.
[Added] Lifetime subscription option #1100
As you know, AdGuard for iOS offers two ways to activate Premium features: with a license key and via App Store subscriptions. It wasn’t very fair that while license keys can be either 1-year or lifetime, there was only a 1-year subscription-based activation option. Now, if you’re enjoying AdGuard and would like to stay with us for a while, you can purchase a lifetime subscription in App Store and save some money!
[Added] Native login screen #1197
And a small treat for our users who prefer license keys to subscriptions approach. To link AdGuard for iOS to your AdGuard personal account you don’t need to jump between the app and the browser anymore. When you tap the “Log in” button, a new screen will pop up that allows you to enter the credentials right there. You can choose the “Forgot password” option or even register a new account there too, if needed.

AdGuard für iOS 3.0.1
Veröffentlicht am: 18. Juli 2019
This update fixes a lot of small-ish bugs, this is a hotfix of sorts if you will. We started addressing iOS 13-related issues, as its gaining more and more popularity among users despite still being in beta.
[Added] Two-Factor Authentication (if enabled in Account) #985
In v3.0 we added an option to log into your adguard.com personal Account via the app to activate Premium features of AdGuard for iOS. We completely forgot to take into account that some users have had two-factor authentication configured. Now we fix this unfortunate mistake, from now on you’ll be prompted to confirm your identity with an authenticator app in such case.

AdGuard für iOS 3.0.0
Veröffentlicht am: 17. Juni 2019
This is huge! AdGuard 3.0 for iOS has lots of new things that should get you excited! DNS Privacy module, custom filters and max limit count raised to 250k ー we have enough topics to talk about!
[Improved] Safari content blocker max rule count raised to 250k #819
Safari is notoriously known for its harsh 50k max limit for filtering rules in content blockers. This number is laughably low, and for ages we were struggling with it. Now we've implemented a workaround: split AdGuard into five content blockers. Each of them has the same 50k restriction but in total they add up to a reasonable 250k rules max. You don't have to seek weird compromises anymore and can enable all your favorite filters!
[Added] "DNS Privacy" settings section #887
This section should look familiar to seasoned AdGuard Pro users. Basically, this is where you have a chance to configure DNS settings the way you like it ー and further protect your privacy along the way. The main difference to the Pro version is that there's no blacklist or whitelist here, this was impossible under the current Apple policy. However, there is a requests log that will provide you information about everything that's going on on your device.
[Added] An option to import custom filters by URL #518
This option will be very useful for those who support their own filters, or just have a favorite filter that wasn't included by default. Add it by URL and it will be kept updated just as any other filter!

AdGuard für iOS 2.1.1
Veröffentlicht am: 22. Juni 2018
We are lucky to have a lot of amazing volunteers who help us translate AdGuard into various languages. Thanks to their efforts we were able to improve the existing localizations and even add a new one — AdGuard is now available in Japanese!
[Improved] Translations have been updated
AdGuard für iOS 2.0.5
Veröffentlicht am: 23. April 2018
Hello! This is a very small update. We updated the translations (thanks to all the volunteers by the way!) and added a "Rate me" dialog window. If you've always wanted to give us 5 stars, but just keep forgetting — this change is for you! :) Seriously though, just swipe the dialog away if you don't feel like rating the app, and it won't bother you again.
[Added] "Rate me" dialog #751
[Improved] Translations has been updated
AdGuard für iOS 2.0.4
Veröffentlicht am: 29. März 2018
Hello! Some iOS 9 users may have encountered certain troubles after the previous update. We fixed the related issues in this hotfix, so please update! Users of newer iOS versions can update too, there's no harm in that :)
AdGuard für iOS 2.0.2
Veröffentlicht am: 19. März 2018
Usually we update both AdGuard and AdGuard Pro for iOS simultaneously, but not this time. Don't worry — the new version of AdGuard for iOS has arrived, and it features new design, web reporting tool integration and more.
[Changed] App redesign #455
This is undoubtedly the first thing you will notice when you run the app after the update. Light theme has been discontinued in favor of a dark one, and the overall style of the menu has changed.
[Added] Detect if Content Blocker is not enabled in Safari settings #437
Enabling AdGuard Content blocker in Safari settings is required to have filtering going on in Safari. If AdGuard is disabled, the red warning will appear at the top of the main screen to remind you to enable the Content Blocker. The video right below it shows how to do so.
[Added] Integration with the web reporting tool #533
You may have heard about the online reporting tool before, especially if you are an AdGuard for Windows or AdGuard extension user. Basically, it is a web form to report missed ads, false positives or any other issues caused by AdGuard filters. Now it is integrated with AdGuard for iOS, so whenever you report a problem, the app will automatically prefill all the required fields about its settings.
UI
[Added] "Learn about other AdGuard products" item to the "RATE AND SHARE" block #641
[Improved] Tutorial videos have been updated #539
[Improved] AdGuard now uses default iOS Sharing functionality #590
Ad Blocking
[Changed] “Send Bug Report” menu item has been reworked #649
[Fixed] Error while loading filters into Safari #550

[Improved] Translations has been updated
AdGuard für iOS 1.3.3
Veröffentlicht am: 12. Dezember 2017
The time has come for another version of AdGuard for iOS to be released. Renovated Assistant and the new “Invert whitelist” option are the headliners of this update.
[Changed] Assistant in the Safari extension #469
We have unified the Assistant code, so that it’s the same across the board now: AdGuard for Windows, Mac and iOS, browser extensions, you name it. While at it, we have changed the exterior a bit (hopefully, for the better). As a side effect, there’s temporarily no ‘Preview’ option, but it will be added in the next version.
[Added] Inverted whitelist #431
This is a quite narrow option, but some users will definitely find it useful. By inverting the whitelist (which you can do in the Advanced settings, by the way) you will switch AdGuard into a special mode that doesn’t block ads anywhere by default, but filters all websites that you add to this list. The inverted whitelist is independent from the regular whitelist, so you can have them both configured as you find appropriate and switch between the modes depending on your current goals.
[Improved] Added scaling support for iPhone X (18:9) #513
Upon the release of iPhone X some of AdGuard interface panels looked pretty ugly. We had to do some work to make it look smooth and natural for all those lucky owners of the newest Apple flagship device :)
UI
[Fixed] Keyboard covers up text field in custom filters #505
[Changed] Localizations have been updated
