Top features of Adguard: Content Blocker
Besides blocking adverts, the app also provides several other solutions. While some are more useful than others, it provides added protection from malicious ads:
- Adblock list: Contains an existing filter list of the most common adverts to block instantly
- Whitelist: Some content creators have websites that are immediately identified as promotional sites, but you can add them to your whitelist if you visit them often
- Customized filters: You can create rules for filters deciding which types to block
- Open-source: The app is entirely transparent, and you can view the code on GitHub
Battery usage
Content that’s heavy with resources, specifically video ads, tends to drain your phone’s battery more than is necessary. Since Adguard blocks this content from your device, you’ll see longer battery life. Of course, it depends on whether you increase activity on the phone after the ads are gone.
Protecting your privacy
Some hackers design ads to steal your data and information, or they invade your privacy by spying on your activity. AdGuard: Content Blocker for Samsung and Yandex prevents this from happening, ensuring that your info remains safe from prying eyes.
