AdGuard Content Blocker is a free Android app that blocks ads in the Yandex browser and Samsung Internet mobile browser without root permissions. This AdGuard’s ad-blocking app works specifically in these two web browsers.

Save battery and data
Intrusive ads distract your attention and steal your time, and heavy-media ads, especially video ads, also drain your battery and data on your device. With AdGuard Content Blocker, you'll finally be able to leave the house without a charger and treat yourself to an extra coffee thanks to the data you saved.

20+ adblock lists
Choose from the most complete of all the existing filter lists, designed both by our highly skilled specialists and by prominent community members. Enable general lists that cover most common ads, and combine them with language-specific lists to ensure the best protection in your country: France, Spain, Germany, Korea, and other countries and language regions.

Whitelist
Support your favorite websites and content creators by adding their websites to the list of exceptions. You can whitelist entire domains or specific pages. There’s no need to turn AdGuard off every time you're about to visit a known, trustworthy website that doesn't have any intrusive ads.

Custom filters
Our app gives you control over the filtering process. Add your own custom rules to block ads or hide any elements on the page, and allow them back at any point in the future.
