How can I block In app ads on android devices? Like I realize the Hebrew calendar app has ads and some other apps
They are like the Google ad pop-ups By the way
How can I remove them?
Lucky patcher, or edit the /system/etc/hosts file to block the ad ip requests - identify the ip requests using http canary.
(basically, there’s no way unless you know what you’re doing… but maybe other users here know of some adblocker app that influences other apps as well… anyone?)
There are android firewall apps that block ads.
try using AdGuard DNS
Can you name any?
NetGuard, if I remember the name correctly.
But it’s not free… Is there any legit and kinda free ad blocker - VPN?
It is. You can download it for free here:
Does this help when you need internet for the app itself? Or it’s for an app that works offline.
It does dns based blocking of network ads.
Wow thanks. never knew this exists… i wonder if i can edit the source to block certain stuff automatically and integrate it in my custom roms…
(if you see the source, it also uses the hosts file to operate… and uses a network traffic recorder to detect - like i said . but this is a all in one open source package. way better than anything i had so far)
I’m creating a custom version designed to be installed along side eGate, which will be password protected by the same password as eGate.
How would that work? it’s a custom VPN?
It’s a “VPN” that just reroutes traffic back out over the same network connection it would have in the first place.
@FlipAdmin
Is it written in kotlin or Java?
It is written in Java.
When will it be done?
If your device is rooted, use AdAway.
If not, go to Settings>Network>DNS (may be a little different on different devices, that’s the principle)
and set a custom DNS:
another root option is pasting any or all of these lists to the hosts file (system/etc/hosts)
that system/hosts is designed to block all urls in that file? y was it created? is there by default any urls?
