How to block advertising on Android


One of the things that has always bothered me about Android , the applications are put banner ads . You are quietly playing a game and suddenly stops, a banner, which unintentionally cliques and takes you to an ad page that do not normally appear interested. Or you may be using any other application and has a bottom banner that puts you off of what you do, or half hidden banner looks like a normal application button.
Many Android apps developers offer a free version of its ad loaded application, with which they make money, in order that you buy one that carries the suffix PRO version, which is just the same but without ads. And that is fine, provided they are not intrusive ads . The problem comes when sometimes you find apps that appear in the wild just clicking ads unintentionally. Having fallen by treachery fourth consecutive ads in an application, I entered rage and I have started to look for solutions. The result has been fantastic and I managed to block advertising on both Android Internet browsing, and applications , except in YouTube. But in this case we can use FREEdi , that trick down it runs out of advertising and can also play videos in the background.

Blessed be Adblock Plus

I do not know if you've noticed, but Google has been blocking Google Play applications whose function is to stop advertising . No silly this is Google, since its form of business is based precisely on those ads display. So do not expect to find the famous Adblock Plus in your app store. This time we will transit through other paths to be able to bring down our advertising Android.
Option 1 - Block advertising only in our browser .
If you are a charitable and altruistic soul may not seem right to you block ads in apps you use, you are merciful to the developers and that's fine, but can not stand the ads on the Internet. If this is your case you communicate that in Firefox for Android have the capability of putting on accessories and one of them is Adblock Plus , which can add to your browser from this link just by clicking download now . By default allows non-intrusive ads , but if one day you walk into a rage because you clicked on an ad you did not want, remember that you can disable all ads on your configuration.
Option 2 - Block Internet advertising and applications .
If you are tired of the business model of advertising this is the option you want. With this application does not need to use Firefox but you can install it if you want. To block Internet advertising and applications we'll install the Adblock Plus application does not require root on our device. We have two ways to do it, you can download the installation file apk directly from this link (remember that safety must allow installation of third party applications), or we can search F-Droid , a fantastic application used to download free apps or Open source. Once the ad blocker installed, see the Adblock Plus icon in the taskbar and make click observe a switch to activate or deactivate it at will. The setup of this tool varies from device to device, depending on the version of Android will one way or another, in my case it worked straight when installed.
If you have been helpful and let the hype, remember to donate a little to Adblock Plus project.Free software is accessible to all, but instead stays on the good will of the people.
