v4.5.6のリリース直後、iOS 18でYouTube動画をAdGuardプレイヤーに共有できないという問題が見つかり、こちらはそれを臨時修正するアップデートです。

変更点ログ

修正

iOS 18でAdGuardプレイヤー（広告なし内部ブラウザ）でYouTube動画を開けない問題を修正 #2387

iOS 18 ではアプリアイコンの色などが変更できるようになったため、AdGuardアプリのアイコンも対応させました。iOSが自動生成したアイコンに少し納得できなかったので、[ライト] [ダーク] [色合い調整] それぞれのAdGuardアイコンの独自バージョンを追加しました。

変更履歴

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。）

Scriptlets を v1.11.1 に更新

このマイナーアップデートでは、アプリはよりスムーズに動作するようになり、複数のバグが修正されました。

このアップデートでは、「DNS通信を保護」機能に重要な改良が加えられています。DnsLibsを更新したのおかげで、ネットワークを変更する際のDNSリークや接続の不安定さがなくなりました。また、アプリのパフォーマンスに不可欠な他の2つのライブラリ（TSUrlFilterとScriptlets）も更新しました。

※このバージョンから、AdGuard for iOS はiOS 13以降のみをサポートします。

DnsLibs (AdGuardのDNSフィルタリングエンジン)

DnsLibsを v2.4.18 に更新

Scriptlets (フィルタリングルール用のJavaScript機能強化)

Scriptlets を v1.9.101 に更新

このアップデートに偉大な変更はないですが、比較的重要な変更はあります。なかでも、このバージョンを準備中、iOS 17のバグを発見して、回避策を導入しました。

アップルさん、Safariではコンテンツブロックルールは15万件まで使えるはずですが、どうしました？

主な注目点は、iOS 17でフィルターが実際に更新されることなく無限に更新される問題の修正です。これはなんと、根本的な問題はiOS側にあることが判明しました。15万件のフィルタリングルールを含むAdGuardのいつものSafariコンテンツブロッカーを使用すると、iOS 17で突然クラッシュを引き起こすようになったそうです。この理由は、Safariが一定サイズ以上のルールファイルを受けてくれなくなったために起こっていることがわかりました。4万～6万ルール（これは本来の許容範囲の30%程度です）しかないコンテンツブロッカーでさえ、含まれるルールによってはクラッシュすることがありました。

一時的な対策として、私たちはJSONファイルのサイズを制限し、この新しいサイズ要件に収まるようにAdGuardの主要フィルターも最適化しました。それでもコンテンツブロッカーがiOSにとって大きすぎる場合（最終的なサイズは、ユーザーが有効にしているフィルタの数と種類に依存します）、ルールの少なくとも一部が適用されるように、コンテンツブロッカーのサイズを自動的に削減します。そして、これは明らかなiOS 17のバグなので、私たちはすでにAppleのフォーラムでそれを報告しました。

この件についてより詳しくは、私たちの AdGuard for iOS v4.5.1に関するブログ記事をお読みください。

その他の改善

SafariConverterLib、Scriptlets、TSUrlFilterの依存関係を更新しました。簡単に言いますと、これら3つのコンポーネントの更新は、高いフィルタリング品質、つまりブロックルールの効率性と最新性を維持してくれます。SafariConverterLibはAdGuardのフィルタリングルールをSafari用コンテンツブロックルールに変換し、ScriptletsとTSUrlFilterはAdGuard for iOSの「高度なブロック」機能の実装に役立ちます。

そして最後もう２点です。 DnsLibsをv2.3に更新したことにより、AdGuardのDNS-over-HTTP/3のパフォーマンスと安定性が改善されました。また、iOS 13.xでAdGuardが開かなかった問題も修正いたしました。

変更点ログ

改善

TSUrlFilter, Scriptlets と SafariConverterLib の依存関係を更新 #2228

修正

SafariにAdGuardのコンテンツブロッカーを受け入れさせるために、最終的なCB JSONファイルのサイズ制限を指定できるようにしました #56

iOS 17でフィルタが無限に更新したままで更新しない問題を修正 #2188

iOS 13.x で AdGuard for iOS v4.5.0を開けない問題を修正 #2194

DnsLibs (DNSフィルタリングエンジン) を v2.3 に更新しました。

DNS-over-HTTP/3 の安定性とパフォーマンスを改善

ドメインのみを含むルールに#コメントを追加できるようにしました #196

DoHが失効した接続を使おうとする時間が長すぎていたことを修正 #200

Type=HTTPS リクエストが適切にフィルタリングされるようにしました #199

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。

さらに、DNS-over-QUICプロトコルの実装がRFC 9250（標準への提唱）をサポートするようになり、アプリ内でDoQのところの実験的マークを削除しました。

最後に、Safariルールエンジンを更新し、いくつかのバグを修正しました。

変更点ログ

更新

DnsLibs を v2.0.58 に更新

このバージョンでは、フィルターライブラリの更新と、iOS 16でのYouTube広告なし再生機能の修正を行いました。 YouTubeを広告なしで閲覧するには、YouTubeアプリで「共有」をタップし、「その他」をタップし、「YouTube広告をブロック（AdGuard）」を選択します。

このバージョンでは、ルール変換ライブラリの更新と、「高度な保護機能」にいくつかの重要な改良を行いました。

v4.4.0からアップデートする場合、Safariの設定でAdGuardコンテンツブロッカーを再度有効にし、アプリでフィルターの更新を確認する必要がある場合がありますので、ご注意ください。

AdGuard for iOSが開発者アカウントを変更してから初めてのアップデートです。※Safariの設定でAdGuardのコンテンツブロッカーを再度オンにし、AdGuardアプリでフィルターを更新する必要がある場合がありますので、ご注意ください。

AdGuard for iOS v4.4.0 のご紹介です。このアップデートでは、AdGuard DNSフィルタリングモジュール（「DNS通信を保護」機能）がネットワーク変更時を処理する際に発生する、非常に厄介な問題を1つ修正しました。これで、すべてがスムーズに動作しますので、ぜひ新バージョンをお楽しみください。

Not all our updates are flashy and eye-catching, but they all make AdGuard better. So, meet AdGuard v4.3.2 for iOS — right from the oven. 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.

[Other] Safari Web Extension's protection toggle button does not work on iPad OS #1878

In this update we make an emphasis on fixing the bugs that we let through in the v4.3. Besides that, despite the very little amount of time that had passed since the previous update, we managed to make some changes that tangibly improve the overall quality of the app.

It's time for the long-awaited release of AdGuard 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 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 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 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

[Enhancement] Shown the link in the details of custom filters #1529

[Enhancement] Added "Acknowledgments" link to the "About" screen

AdGuard v4.0.2 for iOS is more focused on bug fixes, yet it has some important changes. We’ve made UI improvements, redesigned the menu logic and added one more DNS server to Cloudflare. A small, but much-needed release – the first one after the long-awaited AdGuard Pro update.

Changelog

[Enhancement] Implement Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 for Families #1536

[Enhancement] Return color highlight for domains being resolved by DNS server #1579

This is the first update after the release of v4.0. As usual in such cases, the accent is on bugfixes, and this time there were surprisingly few bugs to fix. We also took this opportunity to update localizations.

[Enhancement] NextDNS-specific characters are now allowed in DNS server addresses #1551

[Fixed] URL blocking rules with $document,popup do nothing in Safari #74

[Fixed] AdGuard lets you select an unsupported protocol for DNS servers #1557

[Other] App crashes when sent to background #1544

[Other] Localizations have been updated

After a long struggle and countless iterations we're finally ready to present AdGuard v4.0 for iOS! It's a huge update with many, many new features, design changes, bugfixes and whatnot. Let's not forget about DNS protection: a way to have full control over DNS traffic on your device. Let's check it out:

Major design changes

Traditionally, a major version increase heralds a lot of changes regarding the UI. This time is not an exception. And we really mean a lot!

General design changes: new icon styles, new menu logic, revamped main screen

Advanced mode: additional settings for advanced users. Use at your own risk!

Activity feed: DNS requests log, exhaustive request details.

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

It might take a bit to get used to for the veterans, but at the same time we hope it will come very natural to new users.

Enhanced DNS protection #1107

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.

Also, by enabling 'Advanced mode' you get access to DNS filtering: add custom hosts files or filters like AdGuard SDN filter to have more agency over your DNS traffic.

New AdGuard widget #973

Now AdGuard for iOS gets its own widget, just like AdGuard Pro. Look at this beauty:

It does everything you want: provides quick access to DNS protection and Safari content blocking switches, displays current DNS server and statistics. You barely need to open the app itself!

General statistics #1325

Another previously AdGuard Pro-exclusive feature that all AdGuard for iOS users will now be able to enjoy. A curious toy for some, an instrument to control your traffic for others — everyone will find it amusing, if not useful. You’ll find the stats on the main screen of the app:

Switch between all-time, monthly, weekly or daily stats and between all or blocked requests.

[Fixed] Crash due to slow content blocking compilation #1269

Apple tries to steal our thunder with their iOS 13 release, but we stay calm, as we’re sure: AdGuard 3.1 for iOS is big news! There are many noteworthy improvements to filtering process, design and licensing system. Let’s tackle the new version one change at a time.

[Added] New content blocker — Security #1103

In v3.0 we “split up” AdGuard for iOS into five content blockers to circumvent the Safari limitation on 50k rules per ad blocker (which is a ridiculously small number). Each of the content blockers was assigned a specific role, for example, “Privacy” or “Annoyances”. But then we thought: the more content blockers, the more rules you can use at the same time, right? So why not add another one? And we didn’t have to go out of our way for that, as “Security” is a category that organically complements the rest. Previously, filters from that category were included into “Other” group.

Note that you need to enable this new content blocker in Safari settings for it to work!

[Added] “Content blockers” screen #1105

(https://camo.githubusercontent.com/9440b106ddad214ebf06703381b7be863dc32693/68747470733a2f2f63646e2e616467756172642e636f6d2f7075626c69632f416467756172642f52656c656173655f6e6f7465732f694f532f76332e312f636f6e74656e745f626c6f636b6572735f73746174655f656e2e706e67)

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

[Improved] Protection status notification on the main screen #1106

(https://camo.githubusercontent.com/d08264a49ab66d9b4cafb2a901dae099062ab540/68747470733a2f2f63646e2e616467756172642e636f6d2f7075626c69632f416467756172642f52656c656173655f6e6f7465732f694f532f76332e312f736f6d655f6b625f69735f64697361626c65645f656e2e706e67)

This is another change that was so easy to make that it left us wonder why we didn’t make it earlier. Before v3.1, if any one content blocker was disabled, the main screen screamed at you with a red “Protection is disabled” warning, which is of course not true. Now it will let you know in a less alarming yellow color that “some content blockers are disabled”. We care about your mental health :D

[Improved] Content blocker affinity #1104

And here’s a very important change that affects the quality of the actual ad blocking. Some filtering rules depend on each other or work better together. There’s been a problem in cases when such rules belonged to different content blockers. They weren’t always working as intended, even if both content blockers were enabled. Now that it’s fixed, the quality of ad blocking will go further up.

[Added] Lifetime subscription option #1100

As you know, AdGuard for iOS offers two ways to activate Premium features: with a license key and via App Store subscriptions. It wasn’t very fair that while license keys can be either 1-year or lifetime, there was only a 1-year subscription-based activation option. Now, if you’re enjoying AdGuard and would like to stay with us for a while, you can purchase a lifetime subscription in App Store and save some money!

[Added] Native login screen #1197

And a small treat for our users who prefer license keys to subscriptions approach. To link AdGuard for iOS to your AdGuard personal account you don’t need to jump between the app and the browser anymore. When you tap the “Log in” button, a new screen will pop up that allows you to enter the credentials right there. You can choose the “Forgot password” option or even register a new account there too, if needed.

[Added] Two-Factor Authentication (if enabled in Account) #985

In v3.0 we added an option to log into your adguard.com personal Account via the app to activate Premium features of AdGuard for iOS. We completely forgot to take into account that some users have had two-factor authentication configured. Now we fix this unfortunate mistake, from now on you’ll be prompted to confirm your identity with an authenticator app in such case.

[Improved] Google DoH and DoT URLs have been updated in the configuration #1092

[Improved] Localizations has been updated

This is huge! AdGuard 3.0 for iOS has lots of new things that should get you excited! DNS Privacy module, custom filters and max limit count raised to 250k ー we have enough topics to talk about!

[Improved] Safari content blocker max rule count raised to 250k #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 into five content blockers. Each of them has the same 50k restriction but in total they add up to a reasonable 250k rules max. You don't have to seek weird compromises anymore and can enable all your favorite filters!

[Added] "DNS Privacy" settings section #887

This section should look familiar to seasoned AdGuard Pro users. Basically, this is where you have a chance to configure DNS settings the way you like it ー and further protect your privacy along the way. The main difference to the Pro version is that there's no blacklist or whitelist here, this was impossible under the current Apple policy. However, there is a requests log that will provide you information about everything that's going on on your device.

[Added] 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!

Ad blocking

[Fixed] "Invert Whitelist" option doesn’t work #859

[Changed] Tutorial videos has been slowed down a bit #826

Other

[Added] A forwarder for AdGuard website links #783

We are lucky to have a lot of amazing volunteers who help us translate AdGuard into various languages. Thanks to their efforts we were able to improve the existing localizations and even add a new one — AdGuard is now available in Japanese!

[Improved] Translations have been updated

Hello! This is a very small update. We updated the translations (thanks to all the volunteers by the way!) and added a "Rate me" dialog window. If you've always wanted to give us 5 stars, but just keep forgetting — this change is for you! :) Seriously though, just swipe the dialog away if you don't feel like rating the app, and it won't bother you again.

[Added] "Rate me" dialog #751

[Improved] Translations has been updated

Hello! Some iOS 9 users may have encountered certain troubles after the previous update. We fixed the related issues in this hotfix, so please update! Users of newer iOS versions can update too, there's no harm in that :)

[Fixed] AdGuard 2.0.2 crashes on old iOS versions #718

[Fixed] White text on white background#731

Usually we update both AdGuard and AdGuard Pro for iOS simultaneously, but not this time. Don't worry — the new version of AdGuard for iOS has arrived, and it features new design, web reporting tool integration and 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] 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] 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.

UI

[Added] "Learn about other AdGuard products" item to the "RATE AND SHARE" block #641

[Improved] Tutorial videos have been updated #539

[Improved] AdGuard now uses default iOS Sharing functionality #590

Ad Blocking

[Changed] “Send Bug Report” menu item has been reworked #649

[Fixed] Error while loading filters into Safari #550

Other

[Improved] Translations has been updated

The time has come for another version of AdGuard for iOS to be released. Renovated Assistant and the new “Invert whitelist” option are the headliners of this update.

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

[Changed] Localizations have been updated

This is a very small update aimed at fixing a couple of minor issues.

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

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

This is a rather small update. A couple of important fixes like broken filter search, several minor UI changes + updated translations.

[Added] A build number to About screen #406

[Added] "Filter rules syntax" link to the User filter #375

[Fixed] Filter search doesn't work #388

[Fixed] Not able to report a missed ad in Safari #394

[Fixed] Sometimes AdGuard сrashes when you open advanced settings #451

[Fixed] Incorrect warning message on the main screen about the filters conversion error #414

[Improved] The translations have been updated #427
