Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Even when the app is launched, some apps still contain ads... Would it be a solution to create a function that allows you to look more closely for sources of ads during a given period of use in order to block them?
What's more, the VPN sometimes stops by itself and isn't stopped or started by the button in the functionality menu. It does not automatically reconnect when connectivity changes.
Is it possible to fix these problems?

Expected Behavior

I'd like a VPN button to be created in the functionality menu, the proposed functionality to be considered and, if it's not present, the problem to be solved like the others mentioned.

Steps To Reproduce

For VPN:
1st problem:Disconnect and reconnect
2nd problem: Use the button in the fonction menu
ADS in Alto's Odyssey and Alto's Adventure for exemple!

Device Configuration

  • AdAway version: latest
  • Ad-blocker mode: for no rooted phone
  • Device: Redmi 13 pro + 5g
  • Android version: HyperOS
  • Root version: ???

Hey, some apps store ads in their cache, or have ads embedded in them, and AdAway doesn't have much to do about that.

Even when the app is launched, some apps still contain ads... Would it be a solution to create a function that allows you to look more closely for sources of ads during a given period of use in order to block them?

AdAway doesn't have a specific time to check for ads, instead, it's constantly blocking connections that are on your blocklist, if an ad got through, maybe the blocklist hasn't blocked that certain connection yet, you can try adding others, https://filterlists.com/ has a large catalog of blocklists.

The apps I am speaking about are using the ads of Google like others! I had the idea of a functionality that allows the app to learn herself to block some new ad providers.
