Privacy and ad blocking

Block ads, trackers and pop-ups

Turn blocking on, and see what it stopped.

Updated October 26, 2026

Smart Browser blocks ads, trackers and pop-ups on your phone, before they load. Pages load faster and use less data.

WhereSettings Privacy & security Block ads & pop-ups

Blocking checks each request against lists kept on your phone. Nothing about the pages you visit is sent anywhere to do it. The lists refresh by themselves every few days.

The counter on the Privacy & security summary at the top of Settings shows how many ads and pop-ups were blocked today.
