This is more like Weblock (they only work on WiFi and do not employ iOS Content Blocker technology so are not as fast.

https://www.weblockapp.com
Please read my entire post. NoAds has two components: Weblock-like adblocker (works in all apps, Wi-Fi only) and iOS9 content blocker (Wi-Fi or cellular, works only in Safari and apps with Safari View Controller).

Both components share the same filters, whitelist and blacklist. This is more convenient than two separate apps (e.g., Weblock and 1Blocker) that have separate settings. This feature makes NoAds unique among the plethora of other content blockers.

If the built-in filters improve coverage and add tracking domains (it can be done remotely, without going through App Store), this app will be definitely worth considering.

Using Peace until it ceases to function properly. After that, I'll likely go with 1Blocker due to the reps from Gruber, Brooks and several people here.

He warned ahead of time, that free was only temporary. If you already had it when it is free, then you have nothing to complain about, in that regard.

Sure nothing to complain about, just surprised. Though it will always be free, didn't know he warned.
I strongely suggested it to a friend as the best free ad blocker, so he surprised me when he replied back that it not free...

It's worth the $1.99 to support the developer of AdMop. I have sent him over a dozen of reports to work on and he always replies, plus he corrects the issues.

This morning he told me the 2.0 beta will be out soon and he invited me to beta test it. He's going to definitely be implementing whitelisting.

I also gave him a recommendation to have just 1 toggle under Content Blockers and move the rest to the app. He seemed very receptive to that idea. This is real good developer. Friendly too!

None of the content blockers in the app store will work on your iPhone 5. You have to have a 64 bit device. If you want a content blocker, you will have to install Xcode, download BlockParty from Github, and follow the directions found here.

I agree. I am glad I downloaded Adamant earlier on.
Yeah, I just grabbed probably less than a day ago and now it's paid (but looks like after the latest upate the version I have became a full one without in-app purchase or anything, unless I'm wrong about that).

Ok thanks what a bummer. Oh well thanks for the info but probably won't do all that.
