Hello!
We released a new beta version, which features long-awaited annoyances filter along with many other changes.
As usual, you can read about new release and download it on the GitHub:
https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardForAndroid/releases
A new beta version is available, and it is a release candidate for Adguard v2.6. Here is what's new in this version.
Hopefully the last release candidate. If nothing critical happens, this version will become the actual release next week.
Unfortunately, another hotfix was required. Another release candidate here:
The last release candidate before Adguard for Android 2.6 (and this time we mean it
).
We are looking forward to see your comments!

Here’s what’s new in this beta version
Ad Blocking
[Added] Annoyances filter: #594
We have decided to create a new separate filter for irritating elements that disturb users or interfere with web surfing. As you may know, we already have a Social media filter that removes numerous social media widgets and different buttons – “Like”, “Share”, “Tweet” etc. (we are sure you have noticed how many of them are on certain websites). Our new filter will go further in making your surfing even more comfortable.
You can learn more about it in our blog: https://blog.adguard.com/en/adguard-news/annoyances-filter.html
[Fixed] Improved ad blocking in Youtube app: #573

Networking
[Added] New low-level setting allowing to block IPv6 traffic in Proxy+Auto filtering mode
