Are you talking about content blocker or full app?

Samsung makes their own content blocker called Adblock Fast.

It works ok for me to be fair, not really bothered with any before I got the Note 8.

+1 for AdBlock Plus for Samsung Internet.

Does what it says on the tin !

I use the full app... Only thing it can't block is the embedded ads in YouTube. It has a great firewall too! Has excellent features. I get zero ads in here...

Does it have to be premium version? Tried it, including all other suggestions you guys made. No change with ads on this page.

I wonder why... I come on here via browser and don't have any apps for AC.. Never see an ad.
I have the paid version so it blocks http stuff as well, but it worked fine on the free version too...

Maybe I will risk it with paid version. Somehow ads from my news app are gone so that is something too. Any way to get rid.of that key notification though?

The key icon means VPN, and you can get rid of it from the notifications menu...

I can't actually LOL.

I'll ask the devs. I like the icon as it tells me this is on and working... I'll get back to you when I hear from them...

Thanks, but I think it won't be very simple, it is a systemic notification.

Anyway, still seeing the ads, even with premium version.

Using Samsung's Ad Block and no ads using Samsung Browser.

For those recommending Adguard Pro, I have been using it for the past two years and absolutely love it but it uses an insane amount of battery. For the past two days, I have left Adguard Pro off and have doubled my standby times and increased my screen usage times by over an hour on both my S8+ and my Note 8.

My Note 8 went a full 24 hrs with very light use so far and the battery is at 80%.

I'm not going to stop using Adguard Pro, but it's staying off until I have need to use it.

I installed the complete Norton security suite and haven't had any issues at all. Also keeps my device junk free and warns me of any upcoming problems. Plus with its live updates I feel confident I am protected all the time.
