AdGuard for iOS v4.5.12

If there were an Olympic event for “Long-overdue but very satisfying fixes”, this release would go for the gold.

With SafariConverterLib v4.0 on board, we’ve sped up Safari rule loading, improved the stability of advanced rules, and reduced the content blocker file size for a lighter, smoother experience. Let’s take a closer look at the main changes.

Safari rules load up to 5x faster​We’ve refined how special characters in AdGuard rules are converted into regular expressions. This small but important change helps Safari compile the rules much more efficiently.

AdGuard VPN for Mac 2.7

AdGuard VPN for Mac now has dynamic VPN protocol selection — a feature that automatically picks the fastest and most stable protocol (HTTP2/TLS or HTTP3/QUIC) for your connection. This improves VPN speed and stability, which is particularly helpful in regions where VPN usage is restricted or unreliable.

Custom filters​You can now add your own custom filters in the MV3 extension! This feature had to take a break after our migration to MV3 because of API limitations, but it’s finally back and ready for you to use.

If there are rules that aren’t included by default but you’d like to use, simply add them right in the extension. This is powered by Chrome’s new User Scripts API, which means custom filters work a bit differently under the hood.

The User Scripts API is a set of browser-provided functions and capabilities that allow extensions to run custom JavaScript scripts on web pages. These are often used to modify or enhance websites in ways that aren’t originally provided by the website itself.

To add your own rules:

Go to Settings → Filters.
Under the Custom section, you’ll see a warning prompting you to enable Allow User Scripts. Click the link to open your browser’s extension settings.

Toggle the Allow User Scripts option to enable it.




Return to the Filters tab, open Custom, enable it using the switch in the upper-right corner.
Click Add custom filter.

With the User Scripts API, now you can also apply scripts in user rules that aren’t included in the built-in extension filters. To do this:

Go to Settings → User rules.
You’ll see a warning prompting you to enable Allow User Scripts. Click the link to open your browser’s extension settings.
Toggle the Allow User Scripts option to enable it.
Return to the User rules tab.
Click Import or write your own rule and click Save.

Update checks

​In MV3, filters are now updated together with the extension itself. Until now, new filters could take a long time to reach you, because every update had to go through Chrome Web Store reviews. Recently, Chrome introduced a skip review option that significantly speeds things up.

We’ve improved our build process so that our updates are now more likely to go through this fast track, meaning you’ll get the latest filters much sooner. We also added a Check for updates button — if you don’t want to wait, you can now trigger an update check yourself with a single click.
