Their popularity has risen fast: as early as in 2015 PageFair and Adobe <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pagefair.com\/2015\/ad-blocking-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">reported<\/a> that 198 mln users have such solutions installed on their desktops.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11691 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/media.kasperskydaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/92\/2016\/03\/06022604\/kaspersky-adcleaner-FB.jpg\" alt=\"kaspersky-adcleaner-FB\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\"><\/p>\n<p>Mobile ad blockers are not as widespread despite the fact that mobile advertising can be even more annoying. Kaspersky Lab developed AdCleaner \u2014 a free iOS app, which automatically blocks advertising banners, links and popup windows in the Safari mobile browser.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from stopping ads from annoying your eyes with their presence, our ad blocker brings some additional benefits. Pages without ad banners open faster and consume less mobile traffic. On top of that, the less content your browser downloads the longer the battery of your iPhone lives.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Your <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/iPhone?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#iPhone<\/a>'s battery life before and after you read this post: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YIPCxw4QpY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/t.co\/YIPCxw4QpY<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Tips?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#Tips<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/t.co\/icxbfjgeog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/icxbfjgeog<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kaspersky (@kaspersky) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kaspersky\/status\/535176856925143040?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">November 19, 2014<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>If users decide to help their favourite website and view the ads, they can turn off their blocker anytime and allow Safari to download all of the banners.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the same research by PageFair and Adobe <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pagefair.com\/2015\/ad-blocking-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">revealed<\/a> the reasons, which encouraged users to install an ad blocker. About half of the surveyed indicated that it\u2019s unethical to use their personal data to personalize the ads.<\/p>\n<p>We totally support this point of view. That\u2019s why Kaspersky AdCleaner doesn\u2019t allow ad agencies to track people online, so they become unable to gather their personal data and misuse them.<\/p>\n<p>You can download the new app on the App Store. It works with iOS 9 and higher versions, and it is compatible with all devices from the most recent Apple product line.<\/p>\n<p><em>Update: The app described in this post is discontinued.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not the best idea to use Safari on your phone with no ad blocker at all.
