💚 AdGuard for Mac v2.20: Full compatibility with macOS 27 — and more

• Upvotes

If you use Mac but prefer Chrome, Edge, or Gecko-based browsers over Safari, this update is for you.

To install and verify AdGuard Browser Assistant in third-party browsers, the app needs access to Files and Folders. In macOS 27, however, Apple restricted access to those browser folders.

Previously, without necessary permissions, AdGuard simply displayed a Not supported status. This made it look like the Assistant wouldn’t work at all, even though all it took was turning on a single permission in the settings.

In v2.20, we’ve completely reworked this workflow. No more guesswork: the app now explains exactly what’s missing and takes you straight to the relevant system settings in just one click.

We’ve also added new browsers to the default filtering list, updated the filtering engines, and fixed several bugs. Read all the details in our blog

I've been using Adguard DNS for quite some time on my Android phone. But now it suddenly disconnected and couldn't reconnect anymore. I did use the new one, dns.adguard-dns.com . Anyone else experiencing this same issue? I'm in the Netherlands, Europe.

Adguard mini for Safari Crashing

3 Upvotes

Running Adguard mini for Safari. I've always had problems with it crashing every once in awhile but over the last few days it crashes every 30 minutes or so. I've had over 15 crashes today. Looking at the console logs it shows "PopupExtension" crashing.

AdGuard Mini 2.3.0.1091 (App Store). Lifetime llicense.

Is this a known issue? Any advice on troubleshooting it?

I don't know what they do, but they frequently roll out ultra aggressive advertising and frames that manage to completely bypass Adguard, uBlock Origin and everything else I try.

If anyone has any ideas or filters, I'd be grateful.

0 Upvotes

Hi,
My Chrome desktop Web browser AdGuard Browser extension, Version 5.5.3.6
is blocking the Internet Download manager (IDM) download ext. (v.6.43 build 15)
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this?
I've tried disabling all the different philtres inside Adguard but that didn't help.
IDM only works if I or pause or stop Adguard totally.

android Adguard / Yahoo Sports Android App issues

2 Upvotes

Okay, so I have tried to work through this for a couple months off and on, but I am at my wits end.

If I open a Yahoo Sports notification with Adguard Android enabled the article loads in the Yahoo Sports App and after scrolling down a bit reading the article the article goes blank This is most definitely an Adguard issue as if I open up a notification with Adguard disabled I can read the article just fine.

What filter or information can I update on my android device so that the articles will not be blocked after scrolling in the Yahoo Sports App? I do not have this problem with articles in Windows 11 in Friefox or Chrome. Best guess, there is something in the domain of Yahoo Sports that is presenting like an add as the article or redirecting.

Any help to make this work would be greatly appreciated. I love the app on both W11 and Android, otherwise. Thanks for your help!

android Why ECH doesn't work on Android

5 Upvotes

I am running tests on Android to check for ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) usage via the tls-ech.dev site, but I consistently get the result “You are not using ECH,” regardless of the DNS settings I use:

- Cloudflare DoH

- NextDNS DoH

- AdGuard DNS

- DNS over TLS

I am using an up-to-date version of Chrome and AdGuard as a local VPN to filter traffic. What I don't understand is: why does ECH never activate, even when the DNS supports HTTPS RR and ECH keys? Is it a limitation of Android? The browser? AdGuard's local VPN? Or are Italian mobile carriers interfering with the TLS handshake? Does anyone have a clear technical explanation as to why ECH isn't working on Android under any configuration?

dns WiFi not connecting when set to AdGuard?

1 Upvotes

I have been for the longest time using 94.140.14.14 and 94.140.15.15 as my DNS servers in my router. And it always worked.

Today some of my devices could not connect to the internet for some reason so I started trouble-shooting and ultimately found that the DNS server is not working for me.

I gave it an entire day as I was at work, hoping it would come back, but no luck. So I changed the fall-back from 94.140.15.15 to 8.8.8.8 and my internet is working again.

It is bizarre to me as the AdGuard status page is showing no outages with everything working without an issue.

I am located west coast US, and I spoke with Spectrum who stated they didn't start blocking any DNS servers.

So I am confused as to why AdGuard DNS is suddenly not working on my network?

windows Latest versions of Adguard for Windows WFP no longer work concurrently with Windscribe VPN

7 Upvotes

With the latest versions of Adguard like 8.0.2, Windscribe VPN can no longer connect if Adguard is set to use WFP network driver and protection is enabled. Windscribe is set to use Wireguard.

The issue does not appear to occur with other Wireguard VPNs like Cloudflare WARP.

This was not an issue with previous versions of Adguard on older branches. SockFilter fixes this problem, but introduces a number of other ones like severely reduced maximum network speed.

VPN VPN for VPN / SteamDeck set up

0 Upvotes

Trying to set up Adguard VPN for Linux on my SteamDeck. When I run the ‘login’ command in the console, it displays a link (not on first try) but the link does not open on SteamDeck itself. I was able to open it on my smartphone, as it already has a VPN set up. Logged in. But SteamDeck did not receive a response from the servers and cannot connect… Tried to share the VPN connection via laptop, but the hotspot isn’t working in such way. Please help.

dns AdGuard DNS Protection Breaks Siri AI

13 Upvotes

Using Siri AI on macOS 27.01 fails repeatedly with "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again." unless I turn off AdGuard DNS projection. Disabling protection doesn't work for me. I have to disable DNS Protection. Only then can Siri AI work with AdGuard running on macOS.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? I reported this to AdGuard support, but they shrugged it off and closed the case due to Siri AI still being in beta.

(android) adguard hijacking links

1 Upvotes

As title. Adguard redirects userscript / .js links to itself. Userscripts is of course turned off as it is behind paywall, but I cannot find anywhere to turn off the redirection of links.

I have both the app, and adguard for Firefox Android installed, though Firefox extension is turned off..
