Attention Android Central - please check your adds

[galaxyuser2023]

I'm unsure if this is the place to post this but I just went to this site and immediately wanted to go somewhere else due to an add that filled half of the screen. There was also no way to close the add. And I have a galaxy ultra so to fill half of the screen is saying a lot. Unsure if this is a Google issue or not but it doesn't happen with any other site that I visit and it makes me not want to visit this site as much.

Most forums run with ads for revenue purposes.
You just need to install an ad blocker on your phone either from the play store or you can opt to use what I use, Adguard ad blocker, which disables ads completely from any app or browser. Go to
https://adguard.com/en/welcome.html and download from the website

If this was in the browser itself, you could try a different one. I am getting more and more tempted to shift away from Chrome.

I moved this to the Site Feedback forum.

I'm pretty sure the forum website got rid of ads a while ago, so I'm guessing you're using Tapatalk (which I believe still has ads), right? That would be more of an issue with Tapatalk rather than Android Central/Future PLC. You may want to just use your browser to go to forums.androidcentral.com. I just tested it on my phone (which doesn't have any ad-blockers installed) -- no ads.

OP looks to be using a website(chrome looks like)not Tapatalk

The Forum on the website doesn't have ads but the home page of the website does and I don't think that will go away

That screenshot looks like the forum website. But what I also noticed is that the OP isn't logged in -- that might be why there are ads. If you register and log in, those ads should go away.

@Bla1ze, can you confirm that?

Good point

Correct. Registered and logged in users do not have ads on the forums*

*Unless they're coming from elsewhere such as Tapatalk.
