What is AdGuard?
AdGuard is a software solution that removes intrusive ads, prevents online tracking, and protects your computer from malware, enhancing your web browsing experience. Its functionality is expanded through JavaScript addons which filter out pop-ups, video ads, banners, and other disruptive elements. The software operates in the background, delivering clean, ad-free pages.
AdGuard also protects against trackers and analytical systems that infringe on privacy. It includes a Spyware filter that consolidates rules against all known online analytics that try to collect your private data. AdGuard can also filter traffic and control ad display in other applications on your computer.

Very good app with best UX/UI design. Blocks all ads, popups, etc. Easy to customize settings. There I can write and add my extensions for adguard. Extensions are writed on JavaScript and Styles on CSS. I love it!
Up until recently AdGuard was the best ad blocker there was. Lately I'm finding a lot of ads are sneaking past it to the point where they disappear when you try to "Block ads on this site" and reappear when you close the selection tool.

If you want to use Safari on iPhone, but don't want ads, AdGuard is the way to go. Though there is a paid version, the free version is good enough for most people. The iPhone app blocks numerous different trackers and ads but is still very easy to set up. Once you set it up, it should be good-to-go! However, there have been some instances where the ad blocking just stops working. To fix this, I have to open the AdGuard app and turn the filters off and then back on. Other than that, it works great!
This is the most important app to install on your Android phone! It filters all adds and many trackers out of apps. If you find your privacy important, then this app is a must-have.
Pretty much the only complete app that blocks ads. It has firewall built-in, feature for encrypting DNS requests and more.
The only con, it's a paid app.
a great ad blocker, very light and well made
