Contact AdLock Support

I used Luna for quite a while as it was simple, straightforward, worked like a dream, and was completely free. Not one hiccup, one time. Once Apple decided to remove it from the store I began to look for something like it. After some research, and trying other apps that were more “advanced” (and still couldn’t compare to Luna), this app seemed to be the answer for complete blockage. During the week trial, there was a point where Full Protection seemed to work, but it was towards the end of said week. I have now paid for the full protection plan and am still seeing ads across all apps. The web-surfing feature works too well, as it doesn’t necessarily block ads so much as kills video streaming completely on some sites. TLDR: app completely blocks videos with ads in them on browser, and if you pay for the ad-free app “upgrade” you’re still going to see ads in your apps.

The whole reason I was excited to try the Pro version VPN based blocking was because I read all my text in dark mode and most ads are blinding and bright, but my safari content blockers can’t extend their reach to the News app. It turns out neither can this tool. Even with the VPN turned on all the regular ads show up in News. I’ve used manual DNS settings to block ads successfully in the News app, but that only works over WiFi. So I thought it should be possible for a VPN like this one to extend that functionality over my cellular data. I was wrong.

UPDATE: after giving it another try an redownloading the app I reached out to their support team and this time they responded! After a week of talking to them about the problem I was having (one email a day. Sometimes i had to send multiple just to get a response) I finally fixed the problem by deleting the app and downloading weblock. Used to be great. Last couple months hardly blocks any ads and when I wrote an email they never got back to me
