Instead of Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus alternatives
Adblock Plus blocks intrusive advertising, third-party tracking requests, and malicious domains through regularly updated filter lists. It covers desktop and mobile platforms, major browsers, and dedicated mobile options. Custom filter lists, an element picker, cookie popup blocking, and social-button blocking give you control beyond basic ad removal. Acceptable Ads are enabled by default, but you can disable them. The free plan provides browser ad blocking, while Premium costs $40 a year or $4 a month and adds blocking for floating videos, site notifications, and cookie consent pop-ups.

Readers may switch for a fully free alternative, different acceptable-ad policies, app-wide filtering, or a narrower platform focus. Compare whether protection covers browsers, apps, or both, and check support for your devices. Custom lists, element selection, cookie popup handling, and tracker or malware blocking vary between products. Pricing and device caps also matter: some options are free, while others offer paid plans or trials. Consider whether you need broad platform coverage like Adblock Plus or a focused tool such as a Safari-only blocker.
