AdGuard Home

AdGuard Home is a network-wide software for blocking ads & tracking. After you set it up, it’ll cover ALL your home devices, and you don’t need any client-side software for that. With the rise of Internet-Of-Things and connected devices, it becomes more and more important to be able to control your whole network.

How it works?

Blocks ads everywhere

Block throughout the whole system. This includes video ads and ads in your favorite apps, browsers, games, and on any website you can imagine. Dozens of ad filters are available to you and are updated on a regular basis, guaranteeing the best filtering quality.

Cares about your privacy

We value the privacy of your personal data above anything else. With AdGuard, you will be safe from online trackers and analytics systems that lurk on the web trying to steal your sensitive information. Surely, this happens without logging the users' actions. AdGuard does not store DNS query logs.

Family protection mode

Use the Family protection mode to block access to all websites with adult content and enforce safe search in the browser, in addition to the regular perks of ad blocking and browsing security.

No Apps needed

AdGuard Home does not require installation of any applications. You can use it on any Windows, macOS, Android, or iOS operated device.

I enjoy the DNS feature. Works well.

Please add 1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1 to encrypted dns list

Please add cloudflare dns dnscrypt 1.1.1.1 Thank you!

Enabling DNS privacy drains the battery quickly.

Re-Add Adguard DNS servers @ 176.103.130.130 & 176.103.130.131

Efficient and developed dns platform. It won’t disappoint. I’m impressed.

Constantly improving. Ad block DNS is included in pro. This means app telemetry is blocked. Adguard DNS servers for PC are great too. Thank you!

Go for it and use AdGuard DNS too.

Can you put the dns switch in the first level menu?

FAQ

How does AdGuard Home work?

AdGuard Home operates as a DNS server that re-routes tracking domains to a "black hole", thus preventing your devices from connecting to those servers. It's based on software we use for our public AdGuard DNS servers — both share a lot of common code.

Why use it?

Ads and trackers follow you on the web wherever you go, not only on your computer, but also on your smartphone and even in things like smart fridges, smart vacuums etc. Even if you have nothing against companies gathering data about you, tracking can be plain dangerous. Ads are no better — they have long become a gateway to all kinds of malware, viruses, crypto lockers, phishing and more trackers. AdGuard Home provides a unified solution for blocking ads and trackers on all devices within your network.

How is this different from public AdGuard DNS servers?

Running your own AdGuard Home server allows you to do much more than using a public DNS server: Choose what exactly will the server block or not block; Monitor your network activity; Add your own custom filtering rules. In the future, AdGuard Home is supposed to become more than just a DNS server.

How to set it up

Currently, you can install AdGuard Home on macOS, Linux (x32 or x64), and Raspberry Pi. There is no need to go into technical details — we have the installation process described in the dedicated GitHub repository. Also, detailed guides on installing AG DNS to VPS and Raspberry Pi are available in our Wiki.
