Very good but a few downsides

It works very well. Three main things I have to complaints about. One is that sometimes it randomly disconnects after having it on for a long time. Two is that it doesn’t work for things it previously did. (For example crunchyroll). Three some of the presets might not work as well as stated. On crunchyroll now it goes back a ton when you block an ad, now it’s easily fixable since you just have to skip back to where the ad was skipped as it tells you where all the ads are. The only other problem is that now it isn’t free and I don’t want to pay for any subscription atm, but if I can I soon will. Honestly while it was a free adblocker and now isn’t, as long as it still works I can say that it’ll probably be just as good paid as free.

What an unprofessional way to handle a major change

So, Blokada updates on my iPad this morning. Suddenly no ads being blocked , nada. Go to the app and get the free trial has expired message. Uh, what free trial? So, I'm not completely dense, I see what's happened. I decide the app is worth keeping at least for the free trial period while I decide what to do. But, after following instructions and signing up for trial nothing works, no ads being blocked. Not only couldn't they bother to warn us about the change they couldn't tell us how to correctly keep using the app. Bottom line, the vpn that Blokada had been using needs to go away. So, I just removed and reinstalled app, chose the Blokada dns and everything seems to be working fine. Sad thing is this is an app I will happily pay for when it is working well. I just have a big pet peeve about poor communications at best and purposely hiding the Change until it occurs at worse. This either shows, bad judgment , ineptitude, arrogance, disrespect or maybe all the above. Bottom line, it torques me off the way I was treated as a customer. Minus stars for you until I cool down. Maybe later I'll revise but for now that's what you deserve for not being upfront and honest.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback. There might have been a problem with your setup if it didn't work for you on trial. You can always reach us at hello@blokada.org for troubleshooting.

Works well but..

Now i had this app back then for a 2-3 months and it really worked. It blocked any ads I used to get on Crunchyroll and games I used to play on my phone. But unfortunately, some glitchy stuff started to happen on my phone, the wifi would be slower and not work for me. And would cause my apps to glitch and lag out of the app. I don’t know if anyone has noticed but when you activate this app or feature, the VPN option appears on your phone’s settings, and when it appeared for me, the option of turning on/off on the VPN would glitch as well. It would sometimes turn off and on in a matter of seconds by itself, when I wasn’t even doing anything. It would turn on, then off, then on again, and back to off again, over and over again until it stopped by itself. So after a while, it made my phone even more glitchy and laggy, and slow, at first I thought my phone was sort of broken. But after searching and trying to figure out what was wrong, I deleted the app and my phone was back to normal and worked fine.
