About AdBlock

AdBlock is a smart content blocker for Safari on iPhone and iPad. It removes ads, blocks trackers, stops pop-ups, and filters media content — helping you browse faster, protect your privacy, and save data while on the go.

Main features

Remove almost any ads

AdBlock lets you decide what you see on the web. It automatically removes ads from any page so you can browse faster and without distractions. Add sites to a whitelist to support the websites you love.

Save your data plan

Use AdBlock on the go or without Wi-Fi to block media files like videos and heavy images, so you see only the content you need and keep your data usage low.

Keep your privacy

Privacy policy

Last updated: April 16, 2026

AdBlock is designed with privacy in mind. The app does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data about you.

Data we collect

None. AdBlock does not collect any personal data, usage analytics, crash reports, or identifiers. No account is required to use the app.

Data we transmit

AdBlock only downloads blocking rule lists from public filter list servers to keep its rules up to date. No personal information, browsing history, or identifiers are ever sent to any server.

Third-party services

AdBlock uses publicly available filter lists (such as EasyList) which are downloaded periodically to keep blocking rules current. The app does not integrate any analytics, advertising, tracking, or social SDKs.

Your rights

Since we do not collect personal data, there is nothing for us to access, correct, or delete. You can remove all local AdBlock data at any time by deleting the app from your device.
