AdGuard for Mac 2.10.1 beta
Release date: May 23, 2023
With this beta, we've fixed a bug that caused some userscripts with unicode in the name of the main userscript not to work. We've also made some changes to the experimental support for Encrypted ClientHello (ECH) to ensure that it now works in Kext and Automatic Proxy filtering modes. Finally, as usual, we have updated CoreLibs and DNSLibs.
Changelog
Fixes
The ECH feature does not work with Kext and PAC filtering mode #1226

path
modifier does not work on yandex.ru/images #1738Custom userscripts do not work after updating to v2.10 #1229

AdGuard for Mac 2.10 beta
Release date: March 22, 2023
New beta version of AdGuard v2.10 for Mac brings many changes and new features.
Now the DNS filtering will be enabled by default and if you are not using any DNS server, the system DNS server with the AdGuard DNS filter will be automatically selected.
New features can be found in the Advanced settings, divided into 4 categories:
Anti-DPI options allow low-level modification of filtering requests to protect user traffic from DPI packet inspection
Keep-Alive options let you configure settings for working with Keep-Alive connections
DNS-related options help you fine-tune DNS settings
Certificate security options allow you to check the certificates of websites and web services by various criteria
AdGuard has also implemented support for Encrypted ClientHello, a new technology that encrypts all information about your connection. Now your ISP won't even know which site you're communicating with.
Many changes have been made to CoreLibs, DnsLibs, Scriptlets and ExtendedCSS as well. And we`ve added the Ukrainian filter.

This is a technical update aimed to increase the app stability and fix minor bugs.
AdGuard for Mac 2.9.0 beta
Release date: July 12, 2022
The new beta of AdGuard for Mac is ready to please you with useful improvements! We've upgraded the Filtering log functionality: now you can add rules directly from it with just a click of a button. We've also moved proxy settings from the Advanced settings, which are rarely accessed by the average user, to the Network tab in the app's Settings. We’ve also updated the filtering engine, CoreLibs.
Changelog

[Enhancement] Upstream proxy settings moved to the Network tab #734
[Enhancement] Add "Unencrypted" icon for "Regular" DNS servers description in the DNS tab #1034

AdGuard for Mac 2.8.0 beta 2
Release date: April 6, 2022
In this update, we have added an option that will hopefully improve your privacy — anti-DPI. Partially, it will prevent the Deep Packet Inspection systems of your ISP from detecting the websites you visit. And we've also updated CoreLibs and fixed some minor bugs. Thank you for your feedback — it helps AdGuard become better.
AdGuard for Mac 2.8.0 beta
Release date: March 30, 2022
This beta boasts two important features that we would like to put forward.
[Enhancement] Add settings export #514
First off: the long-coveted settings export/import feature, that’s already been implemented in every AdGuard product but the MacOS version, is here. Yes indeed, now macOS users too can finally export and import their settings in bulk, we can hardly believe it ourselves!

[Enhancement] Add a dialog that explains that AdGuard needs to run a rooted tool to configure the system #977
And for the second feature — now you will be seeing several (more) dialog screens while installing AdGuard. We can foresee a “why?” at this point, so here goes: AdGuard asks a lot of permissions upon installation, it is true. And it does make a lot of changes to your system configuration, more importantly, it generates and installs a certificate to perform HTTPS filtering. That knowledge is enough to cause some jitters, we get that. And so it is very important for us to explain to our users that those permissions AdGuard asks are crucial for quality filtering. After all, quality ad filtering is the reason behind installing AdGuard in the first place, right? In these dialog screens, we firmly state our policy again: despite the permissions asked, we do not use the power gained over your system for any purpose whatsoever except filtering ads. Ever.

These were the two main points of this beta, but as per usual, we also did some bug-fixing and then updated CoreLibs and DNSLibs. Hopefully, the beta version will blossom into a full-fledged release soon!
Changelog
[Enhancement] Shortcuts for enabling and disabling protection #879
[Fixed] Browser assistant icon goes gray randomly #1025

And... drumroll... Finally, users of AdGuard for Mac can enjoy the option to choose the filter update check interval. We were a little late with the implementation... Thanks for waiting! Hope you’ll enjoy the new version of AdGuard for Mac!

AdGuard for Mac 2.6.0 beta RC 2
Release date: October 13, 2021
And here it comes — the second release candidate of AdGuard 2.6 for Mac. One RC just wasn't enough for us, so we release another one, which gives us an opportunity to update the CoreLibs (and thus improve filtering quality) once again.

Release date: October 4, 2021
Here comes beta 3 for the upcoming AdGuard v2.6 for Mac. We tested the app’s compatibility with macOS Monterey, and they work seamlessly together. All you need to do is wait for the newest macOS 12 to be released – to try AdGuard on it, among other things.
Changelog
AdGuard for Mac 2.6.0 beta 2
Release date: September 15, 2021
AdGuard for Mac 2.6.0 beta 1
Release date: September 2, 2021
We are happy to announce that such features as DNS filtering and Native Apple Silicon support have been added to AdGuard for Mac. We know you've been waiting for this feature so long, and so have we.
DNS filtering support #685
<img src="https://cdn.adtidy.org/public/Adguard/mac/2-6-0.en.png" max-height: 700px; max-width: 350px;>
We've used the same approach as in AdGuard for Windows, Android, and iOS, bringing to the app for Mac DNS servers, DNS blocklists and allowlists. One of feature requests from users was adding DNSCrypt, DoH, and DoT support. Finally, it's all there, DoT included. AdGuard DNS has become the first public DNS resolver to support the cutting-edge DNS-over-QUIC protocol.
Now you needn't rely on a DNS server provided by your ISP by default, you can choose DNS servers from known DNS providers and add custom DNS servers. You can also add domains to DNS blocklist or allowlist and add complicated rules using DNS rules syntax.
Besides, you can add DNS filters of your choice. You can find various filters and links to them here.
Native Apple Silicon support #801
Another great news is that we're added М1 support, now AdGuard for Mac is fully optimized to run on Apple Silicon.

[Fixed] AdGuard no longer filters Brave Browser on Big Sur #746

AdGuard for Mac 2.5 RC
Release date: October 7, 2020
AdGuard for Mac 2.5.0 beta 1
Release date: September 29, 2020
This is the first beta version of AdGuard v2.5 for Mac. As any beta update, this one has a purpose, and, in fact, a highly important this time: it resolves many of the compatibility problems that macOS Big Sur users are encountering.
[Enhancement] System Extensions support in Big Sur #692
First of all, what are System Extensions? It all started in 2019 when Apple decided to minimize the amount of code that's executed in kernel. The old framework — Kernel Extensions — was declared as deprecated. As an alternative, Apple offered System Extensions, and specifically Network Extensions as a framework for apps that filter traffic.
In macOS 11 (Big Sur), the old Kernel Extensions will not be supported (partly or at all), so we are adding support for the new framework. If you're already on Big Sur preview, make sure your AdGuard works in Network Extensions mode: open AdGuard's menu -> Select Preferences... -> Network -> Select Mode.... "Kernel Extension" mode should be grayed out, and "Network Extension" mode should be selected.

Unfortunately, as a replacement for Kernel Extensions, Network Extensions aren't around for long yet (they first appeared in this role in macOS 10.15). They are still being actively developed by Apple, so there is a significant amount of various issues associated with them. If you're facing any, please check out our problem solving guide.

AdGuard for Mac 2.4.7 beta 2
Release date: May 18, 2020
This beta serves as a last check before the release of AdGuard v2.4 for Mac. As usual, at this point we're mostly fixing the remaining bugs and making other minor changes. If all is good, this beta is going to become the next release.
Changelog

AdGuard for Mac 2.4.7.773
Release date: April 22, 2020
In this beta version, we introduce AdGuard Browser Assistant, which will replace the old Assistant extension. Aside from that, we've fixed some bugs and further improved CoreLibs.
[Enhancement] The old Assistant has been replaced with a native Assistant browser extension #669, #670
AdGuard Browser Assistant is a new browser extension that replaces both the old Assistant and the integration mode at the same time. We decided that there was no need to keep both when one new extension can do all the job, and do it better. So what can AdGuard Browser Assistant do?
Everything you might need when you browse the Web: enable/disable filtering on the current website, manually block any element on the page, view the filtering log or report the website. Basically, all the familiar features but without the limitations that integration mode and the old Assistant have.
When you install AdGuard for Mac for the first time (or update it to the new version), the Safari Assistant will be installed automatically. For other browsers, you need to go to their respective add-on stores, search for 'AdGuard Browser Assistant' and install it. Alternatively, you can install the Assistant for your default browser via app settings or during the onboarding process.
Changelog

A small update for v2.3:
[Added] HTTPS filtering step to the initial wizard #659
AdGuard for Mac 2.3.1
Release date: December 9, 2019
To kick things off for AdGuard v2.3 for Mac we release this small-ish beta. It’s mostly focused on fixing network- and UI-related bugs, there’s also a new Stealth Mode parameter to block Java.
[Added] “Block Java” option to Stealth Mode #476

AdGuard for Mac 2.2.3
Release date: November 20, 2019
We’re making final touches in our preparation for v2.2 release: a few minor changes and the ever present CoreLibs update. This time, there’s a couple of really important CL changes:
[Added] Scriptlets support
Scriptlets is a powerful ad blocking instrument. You can say that scriptlet is an internal script (a mini-program) that we install with the app, and then execute that script with the help of filtering rules. Putting it simply, scriptlets allow us to modify how the code of the web page behaves. As for the practical use, this helps to block anti-ad blockers, for example, and in some other cases.
[Added]
$redirect
and $rewrite
modifiers supportThey are practically the same modifiers, and they allow to substitute resources. If you are not a custom filtering rules aficionado, don't bother with it. Just know that it is yet another instrument in the hands of filter developers that helps to block ads more efficiently.
We should mention that both
$redirect
and $rewrite
modifiers are still kind of working in test mode, but they are fully operational and you should feel free to use them.[Changed] Edge icons have been updated #641
[Changed] Opera Beta and Opera Dev added to the list of apps filtered by default #621
[Fixed] AdGuard icon is invisible #527
[Fixed] Remotix compatibility issues #592
[Fixed] Custom userscripts can’t resolve URLs with non-English symbols #640
[Improved] CoreLibs has been updated to v1.5.113 #636
[Improved] AdGuard now can parse
Last modified
parameter of custom filters #409
AdGuard for Mac 2.2.0
Release date: November 7, 2019
It’s time to embark on a quest for the next AdGuard for Mac big update! And our first step is to release this beta: it features added support for custom userscripts and new way to activate AG, but also several bugfixes and other lesser changes.
[Added] Custom userscripts support #11
Userscripts, or “extensions” as we also call them, are highly useful mini-programs that change the behavior of web pages. Every AdGuard for Mac user probably knows about at least some of the extensions added by default, for example, AdGuard Assistant or Popup Blocker.
Now you have an option to add any custom extensions by clicking on the plus symbol in the “Extensions” tab of AdGuard settings window. You are able to load userscripts either from a local file or by URL.
[Added] Option to activate AdGuard by logging into your personal account #588
This is something we’ve already tried with some of the other AdGuard products, and it proved to be a useful addition. Basically, instead of entering a license key directly, you can link your adguard.com personal account to the app by entering the credentials, and AdGuard will automatically get activated if there’s at least one eligible license key in your account.
[Added] “Trusted” flag for custom filters #521
[Fixed] “Untrusted CA certificate” issue #596
[Fixed] Extra “AdGuard Extra” userscripts #607
[Fixed] Editing user filter doesn’t work when search box is not empty #569
[Improved] Installer icon updated to match the app’s icons #584
[Improved] Voiceover accessibility #634
[Improved] CoreLibs has been updated to v1.5.99 #635
[Improved] Localizations have been updated
AdGuard for Mac 2.1.1
Release date: August 8, 2019
We’re approaching the next release, and the betas are becoming less saturated with changes but more focused. In this one, the main attention is drawn to CoreLibs. After some tweaks made to the filtering engine, now connections will not be reset as often: only in rare cases when filter updates or changes in configuration require it. Few other improvements:
AdGuard for Mac 2.1.0
Release date: July 18, 2019
In the first beta version after v2.0 release we mostly concentrate our efforts on fixing various compatibility issues and other bugs. We also added automatic filters detection.
[Added] Automatic filter subscriptions detection #279
Most filters have “subscribe” buttons on their homepages or in other places. From now on, AdGuard will be able to intercept click on such links and offer you to add these filters to the app. It’s not much perhaps, but it’s a nice thing to have and it certainly won’t hurt anyone 🙂

AdGuard for Mac 2.0.3
Release date: May 28, 2019
CoreLibs is the centerpiece of the upcoming AdGuard 2.0 for Mac update, and we've just discovered some minor problems with it. Nonetheless, we consider them important enough to release one more beta to fix these problems before unleashing the new stable version into the world. We've also made a few localization updates.
AdGuard for Mac 2.0.2
Release date: May 23, 2019
Welcome the first AdGuard 2.0 for Mac release candidate! The changes are minimal compared to the recent beta, but there’s one that’s worth your attention: the introduction of AdGuard Extra userscript. By the way, we plan to transition this version into a stable one if everything goes well.
[Added] AdGuard Extra extension #492
In some complicated cases, the usual approach with filtering rules just doesn’t work. In particular, in some cases of ad blocker circumvention/ad reinjection. So we came up with an alternative solution — a userscript. For those unfamiliar, userscripts are basically mini programs that modify web pages and augment browsing.
AdGuard Extra does it in a way that makes it harder for websites to employ the circumvention/reinjection techniques. AdGuard for Mac is the first AdGuard product to get this addition, we are thrilled to see it in action and read your feedback on it.
AdGuard for Mac 2.0.1
Release date: April 29, 2019
When it comes to AdGuard for Mac, we prefer a steady, even methodical approach. Eliminate all bugs, make sure nothing is left unnoticed. This is one of those betas where we clean everything up: fix bugs, improve some of the features and so on. We’ll let it run for a while, monitor it for anything that resembles a missed bug, and if is all is good, we’ll stick a “2.0 stable” label on it.
[Changed] Developer ID has been changed #460
Application’s Developer ID has been changed to AdGuard Software Limited. This shouldn’t concern you much, but if you are curious why, it’s because of the problem we ran into on Mojave. Basically, all new and updated apps on Mojave now have to be notarized. In the future this will be mandatory for all applications. And part of the notarization process for us was changing the Developer ID.
NOTE: if you currently have AdGuard installed to any folder except for
/Applications
, the old version will launch after the update anyway. In such case you need to close and uninstall the old AdGuard. Users who have AdGuard installed to /Applications
already can update as usual.Ad blocking

AdGuard for Mac 2.0.0
Release date: March 12, 2019
AdGuard for Mac traditionally doesn’t receive frequent updates, but when it does, it is usually something big. This beta is not an exception, we present to you not one, not two, but three big changes, each one of them would normally be enough to justify a beta update on its own. These changes are CoreLibs integration, new UI and the introduction of Stealth Mode. Let’s jump inside and look at them more closely.
[Added] CoreLibs integration #232
This is the first AdGuard for Mac beta that introduces CoreLibs — the new filtering engine that lies at the core of the filtering process. It is not random that we put this before such huge news as Stealth Mode or new design. The effects of this change will be both big and long lasting.
CoreLibs significantly enhances both ad blocking quality and performance, in comparison to the latest stable version. And since CoreLibs is a cross-platform filtering engine, in addition to these obvious improvements it allows to implement more new features that previously were only available in other AdGuard products.
Worth mentioning that AdGuard for Mac becomes the second AdGuard product to receive the “CoreLibs treatment” after AdGuard for Android.
[Added] Stealth Mode #12
Stealth Mode is a special module which sole purpose is to protect your online privacy. It went a long way from an obscure, Windows-exclusive feature, to the centerpiece of almost any AdGuard product in the very near future. This is a logical flow of things as the value of privacy has been rising to the sky for some time now, and the need to protect it becomes apparent.
If you had a chance to use AdGuard for Windows, you will find inside all familiar options. We’ll not clog up the changelog by describing every single one, they are all explained in the tooltips next to them.
[Improved] New UI #346
Finally, we get to the new UI. You may be baffled why it was left until the very end of the changelog, the explanation is very simple: the changes are modest. Both the main screen and the settings menu look different enough, but you won’t have to re-familiarize yourself with the app. Think new, prettier icons, honed styles and so on.
One thing that stands out is the new Assistant, it is miles ahead of the old version in terms of convenience, and allows you to access the web reporter for any filter-related issues on the web pages.
Oh, and another treat, exclusively for Mojave users who prefer dark themes. AdGuard now supports the dark theme, so if you switch to it in your Mac settings, AdGuard will no longer be a black sheep among your applications, pun not intended.
New users will also be greeted with redesigned onboarding screens. They are made more informative and help make first steps and adjust AdGuard according to your needs.

AdGuard for Mac 1.5.13
Release date: December 13, 2018
In the anticipation of the AdGuard for Mac v2.0 big update (which is coming at the beginning of the 2019 and will have loads of new features), we really want to acquaint as many people with it as possible. And the biggest driving factor here is, of course, the ability to use the product in your native language. It was nothing but unfair that we deprived our French, Danish and Norwegian-speaking users of that opportunity. We apologize and add respective localizations to AdGuard for Mac for you to enjoy. See you next year with AG for Mac v2.0!
[Changed] Localizations has been added #322
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.11
Release date: November 21, 2018
A small update for v1.5. We have temporarily disabled support for the dark theme on Mojave OS for v1.5, since we were focused on the technical part of the development for the new version 2.0. In the upcoming major v2.0 update big changes are expected, but as for now:
[Changed] Disable dark mode on Mojave OS #379
[Fixed] No default filters on clean install #360
[Fixed] Welcoming UI and app menu are broken in dark mode on Mojave #359
This is a necessary beta version, tonight we will push this beta into release channel.
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.9
Release date: October 23, 2018
A small but important update that resolves to issues:
[Fixed] AdGuard does not filter new Chrome 72 builds #349
[Fixed] AdGuard does not filter Brave Browser 0.55 unless you add it manually to the list of filtered apps #351
This is a necessary beta version, tonight we will push this beta into release channel.
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.7
Release date: May 7, 2018
This beta brings a hotfix for an issue when a combination of bad connectivity and specific environment leads to blocked network access. We have also made some changes to support the upcoming Japanese translation.
Networking
[Fixed] [Fixed] TCP FastOpen incompatibility #309
[Changed] [Fixed] Compatibility with Boxcryptor #310
[Fixed] Browser connections are blocked in certain circumstances #306

AdGuard for Mac 1.5.5
Release date: April 6, 2018
This update brings just one small fix and becomes our new release candidate.
[Changed] AdGuard downgrades TLS version in case of connection error #300
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.4
Release date: March 30, 2018
It’s been a while since the last AdGuard for Mac release, so we owed one to our Mac users. This beta is small but impactful — or at least we hope so. Some important bugfixes and key improvements have been done.
[Fixed] Sometimes connections can randomly slip past AdGuard #285
The title pretty much explains it. We’ve received several complaints from users about some websites not being filtered (even big ones like youtube.com). Without diving into technical details, we managed to fix it.
[Fixed] Crash in
tcpClosed
handler while the laptop is sleeping #295Another bug that doesn’t really require any further explanation, but is serious enough to justify mentioning. In case you encountered this frustrating behavior — rejoice! The bug is fixed in this beta.
[Improved] ExtendedCss has been updated to version 1.10 #293
This effectively means more extended cosmetic rules are supported now. Which, in its turn, ensures “cleaner” look of the post-processed pages (no ad leftovers, empty spaces etc.).
Ad blocking
Networking
[Fixed] Certain traffics gets corrupted #172
[Fixed] Dropping TCP connections leads to kernel panics after

AdGuard for Mac 1.5.2
Release date: December 21, 2017
Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas and happy New Year to all of you! And, of course happy Hanuka, or any other holidays that you may be celebrating these days! A small present by our AdGuard for Mac developers for all of our Mac beta-testers. This beta version holds one major change/improvement, and a couple of minor ones. Details below, as usual.
[Improved] Close active connections when network filtering starts #263
Translating to a more common language, this means that no connections will slip by AdGuard’s protection when you turn it on. A real life example: many Safari users used to have problems with unblocked ads on YouTube. This change fixes it.
Other
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.1
Release date: November 29, 2017
Here’s a first AdGuard for Mac beta in a while. Why are they so rare? Because AdGuard for Mac is nigh perfect, of course! Jokes aside, we did some serious work here, further upgrading the ad blocking and improving the UI.
Ad blocking
[Added] Filter subscription by URL #1 It’s become much more convenient now to add new filter subscriptions since you have a choice between uploading a local file or entering a URL.
[Added] $~websocket modifier support #245
[Added] "Brave" browser to the filtered apps list #246
[Added] Mozilla Developer Edition to the filtered apps list #241
[Fixed] Can't log in to icloud.com #242
[Fixed] AdGuard blocks notifications on Yandex mail in a browser tab #256
[Fixed] "Reinstall certificate" does not work in FF #257
[Fixed] Some websites open slowly with AdGuard #247
[Fixed] Some websites are not accessible with the HTTPS filtering enabled #249
UI
[Added] "undo/redo" buttons to the user filter editor #227
Self-explanatory. Working with filter editor has become so more convenient — trust us, we do it a lot, and we can tell the difference!
[Improved] Filter editor now indicates that the filter contains disabled rules #258 Another quality of life improvement. You won’t now find yourself in situations when something is not working because you’ve disabled a couple of rules, but can’t remember in what filter.
[Added] Inform the user about closed connection to a website with EV certificate #228
[Fixed] Applied settings are not displayed correctly when the language filters are activated automatically #233
[Fixed] No first run wizard when installing on High Sierra #244
[Fixed] Title of the window appears on wizard style windows on MacOS 10.13 #255
Other
[Fixed] "Shadowsocks-R" and AdGuard compatibility problem #240
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.0 (400)
Release date: September 18, 2017
Important notice
There was an updater bug in the last beta and, unfortunately, an in-app update to a newer version will cause an error. If you are using the previous beta 1.5.0 (395), please download the new 1.5.0 (400) version and replace the old one. Earlier versions are not affected by this bug.
The preparation for the release is going full steam ahead, and this update is actually a release candidate. Several bugs of the Filters section interface (#236, #237) have been fixed, we’ve made changes to the spelling of our brand name (#231) and have addressed some of the minor problems.
Ad blocking
[Fixed] AdGuard doesn't filter apps from the WebCatalog app #165
Previously, AdGuard wasn’t able to filter apps installed with WebCatalog, and they couldn’t even be added to the list of filtered apps manually. This issue gets fixed in this beta-version.
[Fixed] Content rules are applied even when there is a
$document
exception #234Networking
[Fixed] Several network errors and compatibility issues.
UI
AdGuard for Mac 1.5.0 (395)
Release date: August 29, 2017
We keep working on the next release and it is time to introduce a new beta version. Since in macOS High Sierra all system extensions need a special permission from a user, this new version brings a necessary change to AdGuard for Mac - an additional startup tutorial (#217). There are also some important security (#224) and performance (#220) fixes along with a UI enhancement: Now it's possible to reset all settings in "Advanced" section of "Preferences" menu (#180). All changes below.
Networking
[Fixed] Wrong cyphers order #224
[Fixed] AdGuard Crashes when receives new metadata from backend #220
UI
AdGuard for Mac 1.4.2 (390)
Release date: August 11, 2017
The new AdGuard for Mac beta is a long-awaited one, and we tried to deliver. Basically, all the aspects of the program has been improved: many adblocking-related issues to improve the filtering quality, enhanced network security and reworked User filter. More details below.
Ad blocking
[Added] $network basic rules modifier #171
[Changed] The ~third-party modifier behavior #177
[Fixed] Content filtering exception rules #176
[Fixed] Error while parsing a wide filtering rule #175
[Fixed] Replace rules aren't applied to .m3u8 files content #178
[Fixed] Regular expressions with $ aren't processed properly #167
[Fixed[ The script is being removed/cut if there is an $empty modifier in the rule #209
[Fixed] Cosmetic filters are being applied to pages whitelisted by a $document exception #189
[Improved] The range of $$ rules has been increased #196
[Improved] "ExtendedCss" module has been upgraded to v1.0.8 #216
[Improved] The trimming limit for request URLs has been increased #214
[Improved] The $network modifier has been extended, it can now be an exception as well #190
Networking
[Added] An option to exclude websites with EV certificates from filtering #170
An option already familiar to Windows users. Some websites feature Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates, which require a very strict verification process and offer a stronger guarantee that the website is plausible and trusted. Usually, they are bank websites, payment systems etc., and they normally do not have many ads anyway, if any.
We have also improved the security aspect of AdGuard by addressing some security-related issues (#186, #194).
[Fixed] SHA-1 intermediate issue #194
[Fixed] AdGuard cannot handle huge chunks properly #218
[Fixed] Connection is allowed when DH1024 is in use #186
[Fixed] "strict-dynamic" CSP is not handled properly #203
[Fixed] There is an empty response from local.adguard.com in some cases when HTTPS is used #206
UI
[Improved] Filter editor has been reworked #56
Now it has become possible to enter the 'advanced editing mode'. Basically, it means that the User filter turns into a single text area which you can work with as in any text editor: copy/paste several lines at once and apply all changes at once and not line by line. The search tool will help you to find or replace anything you need. All in all, it should be a welcome change for all the aspiring filter developers.
[Fixed] The 'expiring trial' warning translation #169
[Fixed] The number of remaining subscription days is not displayed in AdGuard toolbar #191
Other
[Improved] AdGuard can now be launched from an external drive #210
A niche but useful improvement. In case you prefer to store your data on an external drive and switch between different desktops a lot. No need to update your user filter and other settings separately on every Mac separately anymore, just have AdGuard installed on an external drive.
[Changed] The SSL exceptions list has been updated
[Fixed] Yandex mail compatibility issue #160
AdGuard for Mac 1.4.1 (376)
Release date: March 14, 2017
AdGuard for Mac 1.4.0 (374)
Release date: February 7, 2017
AdGuard for Mac 1.3.3
Release date: December 9, 2016
We are getting closer and closer to AdGuard for Mac release. This means we don't want any, even insignificant bugs and errors left. This is why we are willing to release beta versions with a changelog this small. To be more precise, this is a release candidate - if everything is fine with it, it will become a new release.
AdGuard for Mac 1.3.2
Release date: December 1, 2016
In this small beta we make several changes, which mostly concern networking.
Ad Blocking
[Changed] Updated default HTTPS exclusions list #124
Networking
[Changed] HTTPS is now used for safebrowsing requests #148
[Changed] WoSign and StartCom certificates are now distrusted #141
[Changed] New separate server is used now for filter updates #139
[Fixed] $replace rules break content charset #147
[Improved] AdGuard styles are now protected from removal #149
UI
AdGuard for Mac 1.3.1
Release date: November 10, 2016
It was a long while since the last AdGuard for Mac update. We hope it was worth waiting, because new beta adds the support for Extended CSS - read below why it is so important. Besides that, an awful lot of other fixes and changes that will reflect positively on the performance.
Ad blocking
[Added] Extended CSS support #109, #120
This 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. Notably, this concerns such things as 'Sponsored posts' on Facebook.

[Added] $important modifier #132
This new addition is an significant one, but mostly relevant for creators of custom filter rules. With it's help you can give certain rules higher priority.

Networking
AdGuard for Mac 1.2.1
Release date: April 22, 2016
Greetings! It is time to release new beta version of AdGuard for Mac. There is quite a bit of various fixes and changes here, as you can see in the changelog below, but the most important, or rather the most impactful ones, are those that affect performance. Specifically, we mean #88 and #91. Optimizing basic filtering rules (#91) processing is very important since basic rules are the most resourse-consuming among all. #88 also deserves attention. Now we lower resourse consumption significantly during the 'idle time'. Overall, AdGuard will become faster now, but not only that. Thanks to the better performance, AdGuard will now consume significantly less battery resourse.
