When Apple decided that you couldn't control the traffic on your own devices anymore, we sought ways to put users back in charge of their own gadgets. In fact, we should probably 'thank' Apple for speeding up the development of AdGuard Home. And while AdGuard Home is a standalone project, it took a lot from its spiritual predecessor. For the first time, we offered a way to block ads without having to install anything on your device, like a browser extension or an app. The first step towards AdGuard Home was made two years ago, with the announcement of the AdGuard DNS beta. At the same, AdGuard Home features a web interface to easily manage the filtering process. Its purpose is to let you control your entire network and all your devices, and it does not require using a client-side program. The short version: AdGuard Home is a network-wide ad-and-tracker blocking DNS server.

And today we are announcing the official release of a completely new product - AdGuard Home, which carries a lot of cool new stuff with it. Some even heard about AdGuard DNS, a way to block ads without installing anything on your device. Please note that it is only useful on a limited set of websites, and it does nothing on the websites not from this list.As many of you probably know, AdGuard provides a lot of ways to block ads in form of various apps and browser extensions. Your browser should allow you to hide the icon if it annoys you. It provides no user interface save for the extension icon in the toolbar. Regular ad blocking rules do not allow us being as flexible as it's necessary, that's why AdGuard Extra was developed.ĪdGuard Extra is a companion extension, it is supposed to be used with a full-scale ad blocker like AdGuard or any other.

AdGuard Extra is a browser extension that is supposed to fight ad blocking circumvention attempts which become more and more popular.
