      I recently switched to AdAway from AdGuard. More ads seem to get through in apps, but combined with unlock in Firefox websites are completely clean.

        Were you using the Adguard app or the DNS’s?

        I usually use AdAway with root and with my pihole at home (and outside home with VPN) and I barely see any ads, although I haven’t tested with Android apps.

      Looks cool! Can anyone weigh in on how similar this is to DDG’s tracking blocker feature? Is it the same but open source?

        Its basically just a host file. It pulls in a huge file with all the ad domains and whenever your phone tries to connect to one it gets ignored. Therefore it also works for ads in apps.

        Does DDG allow you to import lists? Does it have a VPN-less mode? Can it work system wide?
