How can I get a Premium for iPhone or iPad?
There are two options to activate Premium features on AdGuard for iOS app:
Purchase a subscription. Just tap on the “Get Premium” plaque anywhere in the app and follow the on-screen instructions. All you'll need to do is enter your Apple ID password and confirm the purchase. You can choose between a monthly, yearly and lifetime subscriptions.

You'll be asked to enter your AdGuard Personal account credentials. After you do, if you have any valid license key in your account, it will be automatically picked up to activate Premium in your AdGuard for iOS app.

Browsers
AdGuard "intercepts" the traffic of your browsers and leads it via its own filtering engine. Chrome, Firefox or any browser you like — you don't need to install any specific extensions to block ads there. AdGuard program works EVERYWHERE. (Although, you might want to additionally install AdGuard Browser Assistant — a small extension to the program to help you manage the filtering right in the browser).
Apps
Being a full-fledged software AdGuard is not limited in technical capabilities (while most ad blocking extensions are) and can filter outside browsers as well. AdGuard "intercepts" the traffic of all apps and leads it via its own filtering engine, so that you get them free of ads and trackers.
System
Operating system might sometimes track you and collect all kinds of telemetry (a bunch of diagnostic data). AdGuard can also prevent this.
DNS filtering
AdGuard intercepts DNS requests and can block them if it is an address of a known advertising or tracking server that is being requested. AdGuard can also automatically encrypt your DNS traffic.
Network filtering
AdGuard needs to work on a network level to control all apps on your device. To do so, we use a special network driver, which activates the actual transmission and receipt of data over the network.
HTTPS filtering
The encrypted connections are filtered right on your device. To do that, AdGuard generates a unique root certificate and installs it in the system. Then, each connection is decrypted and trackers and ads are removed locally. The connection is encrypted again for the "communication" with the server. No unencrypted data ever leaves your device. Learn more here.
Content filtering
AdGuard filters the content of web pages and removes all tracking and advertising requests from there. In browsers, it also applies additional cosmetic rules when blocking or hiding advertising elements (so that you see a nicely processed page rather than just blank spaces where ads just were).
World wide web
Next, websites or apps are connecting to the servers on the Internet. As all tracking and advertising requests were blocked, you don't connect to them. Thus, you get ad-free, safe, fast (as there are no extra elements to load) Web, and also save traffic.
System changes
To do the filtering, AdGuard installs a network driver. If you decide to use HTTPS filtering, AdGuard will generate and install a unique root certificate in the system. All changes in the system made by AdGuard will be reset after uninstalling the program.
