Reliable Ad Blockers You Need to Have for Your iOS 10 Device

Over the years, there are now different ways on how ads are inserted in iOS devices, along with the number of updates that the operating system has gone through. Because of this, some older ad blockers that have not been updated won't be able to perform their jobs properly. Check out some free ad blockers that you can download from the App Store that will block most ads in Safari and certainly a few apps optimized for iOS 10.

Ad Guard

Ad Guard is a great solution when it comes to blocking ads on your Safari browser since it boasts up to 50 filters. The only disadvantage of using this particular app is that some of these filters are subscription-based. However, you can already enjoy the filtering job of its free and default version that most average Safari user will ever encounter. What sets this app apart from other ad blockers is that it can be turned on or off from a specific page by tapping the "Share" icon in Safari.

This app also offers a fake VPN profile that has the ability to block ads across the entire system -- not just in Safari. The only downside with this option is that this upgrade needs to be purchased, though its free version is more than enough to clean up the user experience.

Block Ad by Neverads

Block Ad by Neverads is free, fast, and effective with no frills included. It blocks all those annoying ads including image ads, video ads, etc. As a result, you get the best experience in fast web browsing. This app installs on Safari and makes you feel comfortable whenever you start browsing. Like many other ad blockers, Block Ad provides anywhere from two to five times more browsing speed and actively helps to prevent any unnecessary data consumption.

1Blocker

The description on its iTunes' downloads page claims that it has a "lightning-fast native Content Blocking API" and that it "doesn't slow Safari." 1Blocker is proven to be non-invasive, stable, and quick when it comes to blocking ads and get back to seeing what really matters the most.

Turn On Your Ad Blockers

Do take note that ad blockers do not start working the minute you downloaded them. You need to turn them on first on your device's settings. On your device's Home screen, go to Settings, then scroll down and tap on Safari. Next, scroll and tap on Content Blockers. Toggle the switch next to each ad blocker according to your personal preferences.

It won't hurt to run more than one content blocker on your device, though the idea is not actually necessary.
