Top Reviews

I guess not many people actually READ anymore

I rely pretty heavily on reviews for apps in my browsing and shopping on the App Store but if I went by was the star ratings alone I would get things wrong too often. Taking the time to actually read through the reviews for this app, I noticed that people give me a negative reviews are complaining that he does not do something it does not even advertise/claim that it will do. This app is designed to opt you out of receiving personalized ads. NOT block ads all together. So far it does seem to do a fair job at killing the personalization of ads that I see. It used to be that I could browse/shop for a particular item in one app like eBay and then use my web browser and see an ad pop up for the exact item I viewed elsewhere. I was even seeing adds related to subjects I had previously browsed online in private mode popping up everywhere no matter how many times I went to add settings and opted out which was extremely frustrating for me. So far I am seeing improvement although it does take some time for some settings to update.

This app works, if you can read

If your a “Select All” or “Off” selections are not working you may have Limit Ad Tracking enabled on your device. Go to Settings > Privacy > Advertising then turn off Limit Ad Tracking and return to the app.
