Works great with Quad9 and 1Hosts Lite after disabling blocking connections without VPN
★★★★★PP Saini· May 30, 2026
Lightweight, straightforward app that works well and stays consistent. More utility apps should be like this. Huge improvement from Blockade and is the best DNS blocker I have found so far.

Works perfectly for blocking some ads on default settings. Be sure to disable private DNS, or it won't work. No ads either
★★☆☆☆Shadow Kokufu· Sep 21, 2026
Gives me an IO error and disconnects my devices from the internet if inactive, which didn't happen before. Still need to disable the app to watch in-game ads on whitelisted apps. Still blocks notifications from my bank app and from WhatsApp. Also, randomly stops after a few days even with unrestricted background permission. Good adblock. Would be nice if you saved the blocking settings (blocked/passed URLs) to my account so that I don't have to modify it every time I put it on a different device.

This app used to work. I uninstalled it just now then installed it again to start fresh. It did nothing. There are no instructions. I turned on "enable blocking". No ads were blocked. I can't understand what most of the controls mean. And there are no instructions. Hello, has anyone gotten this app to work? What's the magic to do it? Hello?

Trust & Safety: The app requests standard network and foreground service permissions (ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, INTERNET, FOREGROUND_SERVICE, WAKE_LOCK, RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED, POST_NOTIFICATIONS), plus storage access and broad visibility via QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES. It emphasizes on-device filtering with encrypted DNS and claims no data is sent to the developer. It is not a VPN and operates without root on supported Android versions. Users should review permissions, especially QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES, and privacy notes in light of these capabilities.
