User Reviews

Reviews are mixed. Many users praise AdGuard for Safari for blocking ads and improving browsing, with a usable free tier and affordable paid perks. However, several repeatedly report inconsistent blocking, ads still appearing on certain sites or video ads, and issues with licensing, activation, and support. On iOS, Safari extensions can be disabled, and some users note a lack of cross-device compatibility. Overall, it can improve browsing, but reliability and support are common concerns.

Pros

Blocks most ads on Safari across many sites (banners, popups, cookie notices)
Easy to toggle on/off and manage, user-friendly
Free version works and premium perks are affordable
Improves browsing experience by reducing ads and interruptions

Cons

Blocking is inconsistent across sites and ad types; some ads still get through
Premium features don’t always guarantee blocking; some users still see ads after subscribing
Support and licensing issues; reports of slow responses, activation problems, and unhelpful support
Safari/iOS-specific issues; extensions can be disabled/greyed out and cross-device compatibility is poor

Recent reviews

This ad blocker is terrible, it doesn’t do anything unless you pay. I get more ads with this ad blocker than with no ad blocker at all! Don’t get it unless you want to waste your time.

this use to work well for me for years. until today... i'm getting plenty of sponsored ads while browsing images on google using safari. it says adguard is turned on. not sure what went wrong

This is the best ad blocker, as someone who does a lot of reading and pirating, this thing is a holy grail for blocking ads. I think the issue with a lot of the people leaving bad reviews is they’re not setting it up correctly. I have this ad blocker on three IOS devices and I use both safari and chrome and it works wonders for both.
