Here's a list of Android apps that AdGuard for Android can't filter and/or remove the ads from (due to whatever technical reasons - it's likely different case-to-case!). So there will be ads in these apps when running AdGuard for Android...

Facebook
Instagram
Twitter
UC Browser (can't be filtered because of the use of data compression)
YouTube

Keep in mind that Android 7.0 and above effectively prevents HTTPS filtering in most of the apps unless you have root access and can move the AdGuard certificate to the system store!

This list will be updated as more apps are found, thanks!

I would like to know where to find this filter, and how to install it. Is it possible to have a practical guide with screenshots? Or a video explaining how to apply the filters

What filter? I don't understand what you're trying to do here? If you want to use different filter lists, you can do that in AG for Android's settings.

But if you're referring to the list of apps above, AG for Android can't filter (remove ads) from them.

I don't know where the . question about blocking ads in clash of clans went but yes it does. That being said you mentioned it was a modded apk, surely to allow cheats.

I wouldn't use it if I were you. It's likely harmful.

I deleted this message because it contained a link to downloading pirate software. :)

I figured that was why. So dangerous to download stuff like that. You would think someone using adguard would know how risky using a hacked app is.

Hello there!
You should open apps management and check, is HTTPS filtering enabled for a specific application?


If with HTTPS filtering enabled you still see ads, it is advisable to inform the filter developers.
They will change the blocking rules and the ads will disappear.

To send a complaint you need to open AdGuard > Support > Send feedback > Missed ads > Fill in the form.
After that the task will be automatically started on GitHub.

Not sure about Reddit (probably web browser), but for YouTube there are third-party apps like YouTube Vanced and NewPipe.

YouTube Vanced is relatively safe if you download it from the official site, and not from some 'mirror'.

NewPipe is available on F-Droid, YouTube Vanced is not (because it's a modded YouTube app).

AdGuard for Android when running it as a free version with no license can only filter web browsers, not other apps. Filtering apps other than web browsers is a premium feature.
