Ratings and reviews

I didn't really care about a 1-2 dollar a month subscription, but what really kills me is the fact it doesn't even work very smoothly, I start the trial and the first thing I notice is both my internet and data are down.. it's still asking to re-enable notifications (it's enabled), and worst of all, the thing I'm told to copy-paste into my DNS what looks like a site? I don't understand if there is any part I might need to cut out or keep it full. This app functions like a glorified airplane mode

Failed to block ads on Duolingo, the only reason I downloaded it. Claims to block 'hundreds of trackers' every other hour, but won't show you any details about those trackers. Not what website their from, nor the type of tracker. App is a slick design at least, and offers a trial period that was painless to try. Might be worth it for general use browsing, but fails on the specific task I needed it for.

I've been using Blokada 5 for a couple years now and have always been happy with it. I was very excited when I saw version 6 and was quick to install. I was surprised to find out it is now a paid subscription service but went ahead and activated the subscription. After setting it up I opened a game I always play in which ads are successful blocked by V5. Boom! Here comes the ads. Opened a buggy wedsite, more ads. I promptly went back to V5. Can't pay money for less protection. V6 needs work!
