As the title says, I am interested in a browser with an ad blocker integrated, not some "system wide" app like Adaway or AdClear.
I know AdBlock Browser exists, but it's based on Firefox for Android, which isn't the fastest browser on the block.
So, are there any browsers that are based on Chrome or Chromium for Android that have an integrated ad blocker?
If you have a Samsung, you can download their v4 stock browser and get a adblocker like Adblock fast which will only block ads on that browser, not system wide.
how about #NoChromo ?

UPDATE: I found Brave Browser which is chrome with an adblocker, but doesn't have tab sync among different devices. Any browsers out there with adblocking and tab sync?
Try Opera Browser. Has an ad blocker and tab sync.

wondering if anyones got an alternative to blocking the ads in the internet browser.
thanks
Firefox has an adblock addon
im pretty comfortable with the built in internet app.
unless opera or dolphin has adblocking.
still looking for another alternative for the built in internet app.
thanks
Hi fellas, I know this is an age-old question but there's seems to be scant information available on this. Let's share our knowledge to figure this out. This is the list I've come across during my short research:
Adblock Plus: Blocks only on Wi-Fi
Adguard: Removed from Play Store, anybody knows how it is?
Adaway: The best, but requires root.
These are the only mentionable ones I found. Do you guys know of anything better? Which is the best way to go for non-rooted device? Thanks ya'll.
i think you need to enable ad-blocking on your browser since you are not rooted cause you cannot apply system-wide blocking. some of the options are:
-AdBlock browser
-any browser that supports extensions like Firefox and then install adblock extension
-also these ones have adblock feature built inside: UCbrowser, Javelin, Dolphin, Maxthon, Naked Browser
good luck
Adguard Premium
I just installed Adguard app and it has a premium option that it claims will filter adds for applications as well.
Has anyone tried Adguard premium?

Hello,
i use a Samsung Phone. On this Phone, there is a Build-In Browser called "Internet". If i im right, it is a Browser based on Chromium 44. There are some features i like really much on this browser, others are not. So i wonder, if it is possible to combine this features, with some features of Chromium/Chrome to make a Custom Chromium / Chrome Browser? Mostly there are 2 features in Samsungs Browser, i wish to have in such a Custom Chromium: The Use of Firefox Account, to sync Firefox Bookmarks and Tabs also to Chromium on Android and the Fingerprint Sensor, to save Logins to Websites. Is there a way to do this and what do i need? Or is there such a Custom Chromium APK available?
I think you'll need the build-in browser's source
Do you have any idea, where i could get this Sources?
Can anyone advise on a good product and installation method that would protect me system wide using both android apps/chrome apps? For example, if I installed a vpn product through the play store, would it only provide security only in that "sandboxed" android app environment? Or installed to chrome OS, could it provide better security for the whole ecosystem?
I'm using an asus chromebook flip, on stable regular build (54). Thanks
So, I Also have a flip, and I've noticed that when using a VPN like Tor It will only cover android apps, so I'd use Tor and Firefox together to have a VPN'd web browser.
VPN's from Android Only cover android apps,
VPNS from Chrome only cover Chrome.
i was thinking about this myself, since i have a VPN client as a chrome extension. I will enable it and install an android app to test and see if the VPN is working for both
I have to use PIA VPN app for Chrome, and install PIA for Android in Android from the Play store. One does not 'cover' the other. Equally, the Afwall app will only affect Android apps installed.
I use TunnelBear. The Chrome extension only affects Chrome tabs. The Android app seems to affect all apps, including Chrome. I tested by checking my IP address in Chrome and in an Android browser.

Hi all. I want to use the DuckDuckGo browser, but apparently it doesn't have a built in adblocker. At least none that I could find. I need my browser to be able to block ads, while also being a privacy focused browser that blocks all the companies from spying and whatnot.
So should I switch to Bromite instead? It comes with an ad blocker already installed, and it's supposed to be privacy focused. But it seems to be absent from Fdroid, whereas DuckDuckGo is still there. Thanks!
Bromite
Bromite is a Chromium fork with ad blocking and enhanced privacy; take back your browser
www.bromite.org
Yeah go with Bromite imo.
They have GitHub here it is https://github.com/bromite/bromite
There's also ungoogled chromium as a secondary, which you can use extensions with, check that out as well.
Jfyi DDG has a few decent browser extensions iv used before, mostly on desktop though.
Good luck
For some reason that won't install. I put the APK on my phone, but it says "Installing" then "Software not installed". The only requirement that I can see is that you need to be using later than 5.0 android.
