Mobile ad filter

Recently we have announced the start of open beta testing for our Android app. During the testing, we realized that our standard ad filters are not enough to properly remove advertising that is designed specially for mobile devices.

The matter is that there are many ad networks that are specialized on mobile advertising, whether these are the ads on websites or ads in applications. These networks are basically not used for advertising on common websites. That is why we haven’t actually dealt with them, so they were absent in our filters.

After analyzing the situation we decided to create an independent filter that contains only mobile ads. This filter is very compact (in comparison with main filters) but absolutely crucial if you use Adguard on a mobile device.
