What do you think of AdGuard adblocker for iOS and Mac? Is the adblocker safe? I'm currently using 1Blocker but I'm no longer satisfied.

NextDNS should do the job.
- You linked FUD.
  
  Is it though? The unusual requests were pretty obvious right from the beginning.
  
  (Of course, this is Android not iOS, so maybe that app is cleaner, but there aren't many iOS users around to test it.)
I‘m also currently using 1Blocker. What makes you dissatisfied with it?
My daily driver is nextdns over a tailscale VPN with an exit node in another country.. It seems to reduce a little bit battery life of my iPhone 15, but I used to have a 12 mini so it is still a huge improvement for my prospective
- I second this, got the same setup and works wonders!
- Same setup, works great!
If I had to use ios, I'd use adguard but on android linux I can use ublock I usr adguard dns on my samsung smart tv which blocks all built in ads
