Block Ads on Android

One of the best ad blocking solutions for Android devices is “AdAway”, which will block ads from most known sources. This includes ads in both your web browser and in the apps you use. AdAway uses a regularly updated blacklist to block the ads before they ever reach your phone. Keep in mind… you must have a rooted device for this app! What is root? Check out our lesson on that topic here: What is Rooting? The Advantages and Disadvantages

 Instructions:

1. Go to the Android Market and search for the app “AdAway”.

2. After installing the app, start it up and hit the “Download files and apply ad blocking” button. This will  download a few host files and merge them into your phone’s, blocking those apps from ever reaching your device.

3. Reboot your Droid.

4. That’s it! You’ll now be running in an ad-free world!

Note: You can also disable ad blocking at any time, just go back to the AdAway app and click on “Disable ad blocking” button. Reboot to make the changes take effect.
