Features & Capabilities

Adblock Fast is a new, faster ad blocker and the first open-source ad blocker for iOS (http://appadvice.com/appnn/2015/09/adblock-fast-is-a-free-and-open-source-way-to-banish-ads-in-ios-9)!

Just as webpages grew bloated with ads, so too have ad blockers grown bloated with little-used filtering rules and features that sap their speed and hog your device’s disk space, CPU cycles, and memory. Adblock Fast runs an optimized ruleset to accelerate pages more but consume less system resources than other ad blockers do.

Adblock Fast blocks ads in Safari not in other apps. To allow Adblock Fast to block in Safari:

press the Home button on your iPhone or iPad,
tap the “Settings” app,
tap “Safari” > (under “ General”) “Content Blockers”, then
toggle the “Adblock Fast” switch on.

To unblock ads, navigate to the “Adblock Fast” app.

To see the effect of Adblock Fast on a particular page, you may have to clear Safari’s cache (tap “Settings” > “Safari” > “Clear History and Website Data”) before reloading the page.

User Reviews

Users largely praise Adblock Fast for blocking most ads, speeding up page loads, and its free, simple Safari-focused experience. However, recurring concerns include incomplete ad blocking (ads slipping through), over-blocking (blocking videos or site elements), lack of whitelisting/customization, and occasional compatibility issues after iOS updates. Overall, it’s a solid, lightweight option for Safari with clear advantages in speed and simplicity, but it has notable downsides regarding consistency and control.

Pros

Blocks most ads and speeds up page loading in Safari
Lightweight and simple to use with minimal setup
Free to use with no subscription or paid features
Effective at blocking popups and display ads
Generally reliable for Safari users and easy to enable in settings

Cons

Ads still slip through; not all ads are blocked
Over-blocks content at times (blocks videos, comments, or affects site interactions)
Lacks whitelisting or granular customization
Occasional compatibility issues after iOS/Safari updates causing it to stop working
Leaves blank spaces where ads used to be after blocking

Recent reviews

Used to be great but no longer blocks YouTube ads. Even worst is that you can no longer skip ad if blocker is active. What’s the point? Deleting this app and finding a new one.
