Hello my fellow pirates I have a question for all. Is there a way to remove pop up ads from my mobile game ? They have been getting really annoying lately and wanted to know if there is a way to remove them. Thank you all for taking the time to comment.

    In your android settings, go to network & internet > advanced > private DNS and paste the link dns.adguard-dns.com into the box. All ads will assume you have no Internet connection. Doesn’t appear to work on YouTube, but covers anything from the Google Play store banners/videos/etc.

      That’s because Google got wise to this trick and use their own internal values for DNS

        no, DNS adblockers block certain web addresses that serve ads and Google has the same address for ads and videos, so blocking ads this way means you won’t be able to watch videos too
