改善

iOS 18 のアプリアイコンカスタマイズ機能に対応 #2372

DnsLibs (DNS フィルタリングエンジン)

DnsLibs を v2.5.51 に更新 #2386

Scriptlets (フィルタリングルールを JavaScript で強化するライブラリ)

Scriptlets を v1.11.16 に更新

アップルが、Safariコンテンツブロッカールールの数が（Safari Content Blocking API ドキュメンテーションと矛盾して）制限されてしまうというiOS 17バグを修正したことにより、AdGuardの一時的な回避策の必要がなくなりました。つまり、６つのAdGuardコンテンツブロッカーで提供される90万ルール枠が完全に利用可能という本来通りの状態が復元し、前と同じように、クラッシュすることなく多数のAdGuardフィルタを有効にすることが再びできるようになりました。また、アプリのパフォーマンスに欠かせないライブラリの一つであるScriptletsを更新しました。

※ iOS 17 以降をお使いの場合、今回のv4.5.5の修正が適用されるには、iOSの最新バージョンにアップデートする必要があります。（iOS 16以下をお使いの場合は、このバグは影響しません。）

この度、AdGuard for iOS v4.5 をリリースする運びとなりました。

システムワイド（デバイス全体での）トラッキング防止

AdGuard for iOS v4.5 では、システム全体のトラッキング保護機能が追加され、ユーザーデータを収集するアプリ内トラッカーをブロックできるようになりました。

また、AdGuardがブロックした広告と追跡の数をホーム画面と統計画面に追加しました（アクティビティタブを参照）。AdGuardのブロック機能によって節約されたデータ通信量の表示も追加しました。

また、AdGuard for iOS をインストールした場合、または設定をデフォルトにリセットした場合、「AdGuard DNSフィルタ」が有効になっているようにしました。つまり、「DNS通信を保護」をオンにすると、AdGuardはすぐに、Safari以外のアプリでも広告とトラッカーのブロックを開始します。どのDNSサーバーに接続しても、DNSトラフィックはAdGuard DNSフィルタによってフィルタリングされます。

DNS-over-HTTP/3 に対応

AdGuard for iOS v4.5 では、DnsLibsの更新により、DNS-over-HTTP/3に対応しました。DNS-over-HTTP/3は、DNS-over-HTTPSプロトコルの新しいバージョンです。AdGuard は、GoogleやCloudflareとともに、いち早くこれをサポートするようになりました。

変更点ログ

修正

コンテンツブロッカー画面でルールが表示されないことがあることを修正 #2012

バージョン更新

DnsLibs を v2.2.8 に更新 #2171

春は更新の季節ということで、ついでにAdGuardもアップデートしました。アプリで使われているライブラリを全部更新し、UIにも手を入れましたので、AdGuard for iOS のパフォーマンスが向上し、少し使いやすくなりました。

高度なブロックルールの高速化

「高度な保護機能」は誇りに思っている機能であり、他社のiOS用コンテンツブロッカーにはないものです。この機能により、AdGuard for iOS は、Safariの標準的なコンテンツブロックルールを強化する高度なフィルタリングルールを適用することが可能になり、複雑で暗号化された広告にも効果的に対処することができます。

しかし、iOSの制約により、今まで「高度な保護機能」の効果は一部制限されていました。

例えば、一部のルールは、ページの読み込みに遅れて適用されることがありました。そのため、広告が「ちらつく」こともあり、ページが読み込みした後にやっと広告が非表示になる、という現象が発生していました。また、特定の広告がブロックされない場合もありました。

AdGuard for iOS の新バージョンを準備する際、私たちは高度なブロックルールの実装を高速化することに力を入れ、その影響でアプリ全体のパフォーマンスが改善しました。その違いにお気づきいただけると幸いです。

擬似クラス `:has()` のネイティブサポート

Safari v16.4 では、コンテンツブロッカーは:has()擬似クラスを使って隠す要素を選択する機能を得ました。これは複雑で分かりにくいと思われるかもしれませんが、この機能はAdGuard開発にとって非常に重要です。この機能により、コンテンツに基づいて広告ブロックを選択することができます。

AdGuard for iOS v4.4.6 以前、:has()擬似クラスのサポートは有料版限定の「高度な保護機能」にしか入っていなかったのですが、本アップデートで AdGuard for iOS の無料版でも利用可能になりました。

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. We hope you’ll enjoy the new version of AdGuard for iOS.

[Fixed] No Internet when using cellular connection (DNS64 network) #1901

Previously, DNS protection didn't work with some cellular operators with IPv6-only networks (e.g., T-Mobile US). A little AdGuard magic and everything works as it should.

[Fixed] Crash on opening an app with a large DNS blocklist #1883

Now you won't have any problems if you actively use DNS protection and your custom rules.

It's time for the long-awaited release of AdGuard Pro 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 Pro 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 Pro 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 Pro v4.3 for iOS!

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!

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

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.

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)

[Fixed] AdGuard shows DNS requests although disabled #1667

[Fixed] VPN restarts when entering the app #1709

[Enhancement] Intercept abp:subscribe and subscribe.adblockplus.org URLs #27

[Other] Updated DnsLibs to 1.4.33

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.

Changelog

This is mostly a bugfix release, yet it has a new handy feature — namely, custom URL scheme support. This allows you to easily add custom filters from the browser and add custom DNS servers using stamps.

Changelog

[Added] Custom URL scheme support

[Changed] Move "About" menu item to the bottom of the list

[Changed] Remove unnecessary scrolling in Settings

[Fixed] Access to DNS AllowList crashes AG Pro #1613

It's been forever since the last AdGuard Pro update, and even more since the last meaningful one. We hope very much that this huge update will redeem us. And there's no reason to think otherwise: the number and the scale of changes is enormous. Starting with a complete UI rework, followed by the introduction of Content blockers and other meaningful additions and enhancements like Activity feed and improved DNS filtering.

Major design changes

Traditionally, a major version increase heralds a lot of changes regarding the UI. This time is not an exception. And considering the app jumped from v2.1 straight to v4.0, the transformation is drastic. Here's an attempt to list everything that has changed in terms of UI:

General design changes. Seriously, this is almost a new app now. New style, menu logic, icons... One thing stays the same though: you can switch to dark mode.

Advanced mode: additional settings for advanced users. Use at your own risk! However, the app isn't called 'AdGuard Pro' for nothing: if you've been using it for a while, these advanced settings probably won't scare you off.

Activity feed: DNS requests log, exhaustive request details. This is more or less the familiar requests log, but better looking and more detailed.

Most active companies: not only you now can see which company this or that DNS request belongs to, you can view the "leaderboard" on the 'Most active companies' screen, accessible from the activity feed.

Requests statistic. Switch between all-time, monthly, weekly or daily stats.

Content blocking

This update features a solid amount of changes that are aimed at enhancing the Safari content blocking. Its efficiency has increased manyfold compared to v2.1.

[Enhancement] Safari content blocker max rule count raised to 300k #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 Pro into six content blockers. Each of them has the same 50k restriction but in total they add up to a reasonable 300k rules max. You don't have to seek weird compromises anymore and can enable all your favorite filters at once!

[Enhancement] "Content blockers" screen #1105

It would surely be irritating to have to go to Safari settings to check which content blockers are enabled and which are not. We know this from personal experience. The logical solution was to add a new screen right to AdGuard Pro settings, which we did. Go to General settings > Content blockers to see the current state. You’ll even find there which filters exactly are enabled and how many rules each of the content blockers has used up.

[Enhancement] Content blocker affinity #1104

Some filtering rules depend on each other or work better together. There’s a problem in cases when such rules belong to different content blockers. Normally they wouldn't always work as intended, even if both content blockers were enabled. But we put in extra work to achieve cross-content blocker compatibility, so the quality of ad blocking went further up.

[Enhancement] 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!

DNS protection

It was already on a solid level before the update, so we didn't change too much compared to content blocking or UI. It doesn't mean we didn't do anything, though!

Enhanced DNS protection #1107

This includes a few measures. Firstly, we made it so it's possible now to enable and disable DNS protection for Wi-Fi or mobile data separately, a feature that should be helpful to many AdGuard Pro users.

Besides that, 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.

There are several lesser changes related to DNS functionality that are too technical or too minor to include here, but together they make the DNS protection suite quite a lot better compared to the previous version.

We really dislike releasing new versions that only contain bugfixes, but sometimes it is necessary. One of the bugs required our immediate attention, and we couldn’t wait for more features to come to release the new version.

[Fixed] Full tunnel mode misbehaviour #772

This is the main villain of the release. In full tunnel mode, some users experienced network failure after their device switched from WiFi to Mobile data. Only Flight mode on/off toggle or restarting the device helped bring the connection back to life. The bug proved to be trickier than we expected, so we added a new advanced setting to enable automatic tunnel restart after network switch.

NOTE: this setting is disabled by default. If you are one of the unlucky users, try enabling it.

UI

[Changed] Margin size on Quick tour screen has been reduced #793
[Fixed] DNS settings description doesn't change when switching phone language #794

Networking

[Fixed] Manually adding/removing URLs to blacklist disables filtering #776

Other

[Added] A help video for the Privacy module #681
[Improved] Several localization fixes and updates #760, #765, #770

It is not uncommon when a big update is followed soon-ish with a minor one. This is exactly it: a minor update to tidy up bugs and inconsistencies that slipped past our attention during the v2.0 release. Nothing huge, just bugfixes and quality of life improvements.

UI

[Added] "CANCEL" button to the Filtering log clearing dialog #652

[Added] Indicator for what exact blocking list has blocked a request #584

[Added] "Rate me" dialog #751

[Changed] The number of items in the DNS requests log has been limited #713

[Fixed] Crashes #715

[Fixed] French translation bug #722

[Fixed] Warning message persists #676

[Improved] German translation #695

[Improved] Changed the way AG interacs with translation platform #666

Turned out, we overlooked a couple of minor bugs and inconsistencies in the v2.0 update. Here's a quick fix to set things right.

[Fixed] Warning "Safari content blocker is disabled" sometimes disappears #691

[Fixed] Blocking List Subscription disappears #575

[Improved] Update the Safari filters' translations in Traditional Chinese language file #686

[Improved] AdGuard filter descriptions not translated to German #683

[Improved] Enable autoupdate over Wi-Fi only by default #682

[Improved] Show "hide" button after watching video #680

[Improved] Translations has been updated #679

In this version, we introduce a wide range of novelties, from app redesign (dark theme looks slick!) to new features like Blocking Lists to block ads devise-wise, new Privacy module (and specifically DNSCrypt support) to boost your online privacy, integration with web reporting tool and much 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] DNSCrypt support #465

AdGuard now supports DNSCrypt servers. You can read why DNSCrypt is so important in our Knowledge base article. Long story short: it greatly enhances your online protection. Loads of DNSCrypt servers to choose from are available by default on the “DNS settings screen”, along with option to add a custom server.

[Added] Privacy settings #545

There is a new “Privacy settings” tab in the main menu. Inside you will find familiar Whitelist and Blacklist, but also new “Blocking lists” section. Blocking lists, sometimes also referred to as “subscriptions”, are lists of rules (similar to Safari content blocking rules) that are used to operate the filtering process. There is a link inside to add some of the popular subscriptions as well as a possibility to add any custom ones by URL. Subscriptions are either hosts-file or adblock-file based, the diffirences between them are described further down the release notes.

NOTE: Important to notice that too many subscriptions can lead to tunnel crash, i.e. the app will stop responding and the filtering will cease.

[Changed] Blacklist now supports both "adblock" and "hosts files" syntax #546

Hosts files are basically lists of matches between domain names and ip-addresses that the system should use to navigate to these domains. Unlike hosts files, adblock-based subscriptions are regular filters that support basic syntax. Both types of files can be added to AdGuard to block DNS requests.

[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] AdGuard DNS (default, family) has been added to the list of known DNS providers #582

Not much to add here. Both AdGuard Default and AdGuard Family protection are now available from the get go, without having to enter their addresses manually (by the way, AdGuard provides DNSCrypt servers too, and they are in the list).

[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.

[Improved] Mobile Assistant version has been updated #581

The “Preview” button disappeared from the “Block element on this page” tool in the last update due to technical difficulties, which caused a righteous uproar from many users. Luckily, we were able to resolve these problems by now and the preview button is back where it belongs.

Other

[Improved] Translations has been updated #667, #669

The new version makes a strong emphasis on improving the Content blocker part of AdGuard Pro. Renovated Assistant and the new “Invert whitelist” option are the headliners of this update. Few pesky bugs have been eliminated too.

[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] UI glitch #517

[Fixed] Keyboard covers up text field in custom filters #505

[Changed] 'Enable DNS Request log' toggle should be greyed out when Pro-status is off #521

[Improved] Incorrect description for custom dns #484

[Improved] Improve widget's appearance #483

[Improved] Change keyboard type in blacklist domain input field #482

[Fixed] Blacklist changes applies only after DNS reconnection #485

[Fixed] Sometimes tunnel does not restart correctly when the network changes #470

An important issue was found in the previous version. If network type was changed, it requires the tunnel mode to be restarted. Sometimes it didn't happen. We have completely reworked the tunnel's “behavior” when changing the connection - now, if a connection type is changed, the tunnel does not restart, and the connection to the network is not lost.

[Added] AdGuard for iOS (Pro) widget #312

Now it is possible to quickly enable or disable DNS filtering directly from the Today view screen.

[Added] Support custom ports in the custom DNS settings #412

And the last important change - it is possible to manually add ports in the DNS settings. This can be useful in cases where an ISP intercepts DNS traffic and redirects it to its servers. It turns out that technically AdGuard works, but there is no filtering. In this case, one should specify the address in the DNS settings, for example - 176.103.130.130:5353 or [ff:fa::1]:5353.

[Other] iOS Assistant is incorrectlty placed on the site #463

[Other] tieba.baidu.com - AdGuard toolbar is missing #416

Recently, Apple has announced that according to their policy, they "have never allowed apps on the App Store that are designed to interfere with the performance or capabilities of other apps". This means that the only ad blocking solution permitted in iOS are content blocking extensions for Safari browser, and AdGuard Pro has to rethink its features. Sadly, the system-wide ad blocking has to go, but we keep the custom DNS functionality and look forward to developing it even more in the future.

We have also removed 'AdGuard DNS' and 'AdGuard Family protection' from the default DNS setups, you will need to manually add our DNS addresses to use them (although, if you have already had one of these modes selected, it will remain). Another option to keep the filtering in apps is to add our Simplified domain names filter to the blacklist as a whole.

But, aside from this sad news, we have something to tell about the new version. It features a new setting that lets you choose between the more stable work and compatibility with other VPN apps. Plus, as usual, more fixes, UI changes and what not.

[Added] New 'Tunnel mode' setting #404

We decided to introduce this setting as a response to some cases of iOS bypassing the AdGuard (due to bad connectivity). What does this mean in practice? The new setting lets you choose between two modes: split-tunnel and full-tunnel. While in split-tunnel mode (the default one), AdGuard will be compatible with some other VPN apps (full list here) but can be bypassed by the system. On the contrary, in full-tunnel mode, you can't run other VPN apps alongside AdGuard, but iOS won't be able to bypass it, regardless of the connection quality.
