Hi guys, I'm Karol and together with we are the founders of Blokada. We're working quite hard trying to make the mobile adblocking situation easier and more reliable for the mainstream users, despite the big guys (you know who) keep trying to make things more and more difficult for apps like ours. Thank you for the warm welcome on Product Hunt. Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback, we'll be around.
Congrats on the launch 🚀

Thanks for your support Fares!
you're welcome
This is incredible. It is so difficult to use any kind of adblocker on phones. Adblock extension on safari mobile is very average.

I agree! It is extremely hard to use chrome extensions on phones as it doesn't provide protection while using apps!
Very helpful!! Congratulations!!

Thanks for your support Binay!

Right now i am using AdGuard. It's easy and gives really good results on desktop.Your iOS app work as AdGuard for me and Now i also want to try on my desktop, so do you have any plugin/extensions for desktop browsers so i can try it on my desktop too

Thanks for your comment! For Macs, you can easily download Blokada from the app store and use it on your whole device. For Windows, you can combine Wireguard with Blokada, many users have reported that it works perfectly for them. Here is a thread that could help in case you wanted to try it out for your Windows desktop:
Thanks for sharing info. I will try it on my desktop. All the best
congrats for the launch

Thanks mate! it means a lot!
Love Blokada. How does version 6 compare to version 5? I'm confused to see it available in the Play Store instead of as an APK. I remember in the past you stated on your website that the Play Store version had to get dumbed down to play by the Google's rules…

Blokada 6 uses cloud filtering while Blokada 5 uses a local VPN approach, Google hates Blokada 5 for using this local VPN so it was removed from their store multiple times. Blokada 6 on the other hand doesn't break any of their terms of service. You may find more info about this subject here:
