8 of 15Works great for me. I use it on both my iPads, an iPad 5 and iPad 9.
I’ve been using this amazing tool since 2013, and is a great way to use proxy services; without breaking your bank using a professional solution or hefty server. <br/><br/>If anybody is using legacy mode—Which is necessary if you are using a separate VPN on iOS/iPadOS or have a device policy that prevents the aforementioned—you will need to do the following (in order) before ‘Weblocking’ will work:<br/>Enter the automatic URL or manual IP+port in ‘HTTP PROXY - Configure Proxy’ Settings, (no authentication is required)>Turn ‘Wi-Fi’ off>Open ‘App Switcher’>Quit all apps>Turn ‘Wi-Fi’ on.<br/><br/>This is necessary for some apps and your wireless card to perform a new TCP/IP handshake with the proxy server.<br/><br/>If the previous steps didn’t work, perform the following steps (in order): Ensure the URL or IP/port info is entered correctly>Copy/Paste if necessary>Turn ‘Wi-Fi’ off>Turn ‘Airplane-Mode’ on>Open App Switcher>Quit all apps>Perform a ‘Force Restart.’-..v(shown below)v..<br/><br/>On new iPhones (running iOS 15 and greater): Press the ‘volume-up’ and release quickly>Press the ‘volume-down’ button and release quickly>Press both the ‘volume-down’ + ‘power’ button at the same time and hold>While holding, power off the device>Once the ‘Apple Logo’ appears, let go of the buttons>Once screen is completely black, power-on phone.<br/>*(For older or different iPhones, search for “Force restart iPhone” on a search engine or Apples support website)*
It’s getting to the point where we’ll have to watch ads just to answer our phone. I have used and loved this app since its first appeared and it was amazing at blocking all ads. Never saw an ad till I downloaded iOS 15, which completely disabled this app. It doesn’t work on iOS 14.8 either. Really disappointed and hope there will be an update to fix this issue very soon.
I’ve been using Weblock for years and years, and it’s always done a great job. But this week, several apps finally started to break through and show ads, most annoyingly Bored Panda, which throws up full-screen video ads at random in the app, and then begs you to whitelist it (to BP: This behavior is WHY we block ads!). I’ve contacted the developer, but given how long it’s been since this has been updated, I’m not expecting a fix. It still works in some apps, particularly games, so it’s not a total loss yet, but I’m afraid I’m going to have to start looking for an ad-blocking VPN now.
does nothing do not waste money or time .
We need to report broken apps like this that don’t work but continue to take money.
Maybe I’m dumb, but this app makes no sense to me. I thought I had followed all the instructions but it’s not blocking any ads
I’ve not found a single app this thing is successful at blocking any ads whatsoever. Waste of $2
