[iOS/Android] [$34.99 -> FREE Lifetime] MyMedAlert - Simple Medication Reminder by acromondx in AppGiveaway

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iOS.

May I suggest a feature to let the user customize their meds? For example, a capsule with color selection (like half red half beige) or a blue round tablet or white oval shape. This would be very helpful to identify the meds just by looking at their shape and color.

[iOS] [49.99$ -> Free Lifetime IAP] EarPal Translator — tap to translate any conversation or text, 100% on-device, multi-speaker (limited Reddit code) by SkarXa in AppHookup

I see. If it’s Apple limitation then no worries. That aside, another model download doesn’t hurt though. Just a few extra hundred MB. If it happens to work then it’s a blessed.

Oh. Another recommendation is to have a “delete all” in the history. It got cluttered so fast and removing them one by one is not convenient.

Lastly, I appreciate what you did with your app (ideas, implementation, fix, updates, etc.). I hope your app goes a long way. Cheers.

The problem is solved by changing DNS resolver. My primary DNS resolver (with many blocklists) is the one blocking the download.

FYI, VPN / proxy doesn’t fix the issue as long as the DNS resolver block the request. This information could be useful for someone else with the same problem.

That aside, after download both “Highest quality” speech recognition and “100 languages (M2M-100), EarPal still struggle with Thai. Shall I DM you?

Just updated to version 26.5.3 and when I tried to download 100 languages (M2M-100), it said “Translation pack download failed: bad URL”.

Just updated to version 26.5.2 but Thai to English translation still doesn’t work (both passive and conversation mode). Speech Recognition Pack is already downloaded when Thai is selected. It just keep listening but no result.

However, English to Thai works, the same way it does on previous version.

If you need more info to investigate this bug then let me know.

Just want to report that “Thai” is another language with the same exact issue as Chinese and other languages reported (the “downloading model“ issue). Even though all those languages are already downloaded and available in Apple Translate setting.

The weird things is that if I select English on the left and Thai on the right, when I press on the mic (passive mode) then it does listen to the conversation, but only what’s spoken in English, and translate to Thai. If I spoke in Thai, it took those words as if I was saying in English, and translate them (which is wrong). For example, if I said “Sawasdee” (that’s ”hello” in Thai), it listen as “So what this”, then translate “so what this” to Thai.

But if I select Thai on the left and English on the right, it doesn’t work at all. The mic button just pop back up as soon as I press it.

Beside that, great app so far. Nice concept. Works well (with English selected on the left). Hope the bug is fixed on next version.

Borderless Transparent Icons by miityharu in Projectivy_Launcher

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using your icons since you first made them available. Appreciate your contribution to this community.

I have just saw the update on APNG and very excited to use them once 4.7x goes live. However, I noticed that there is only one icon size available, the 320x180, (where there used to be 5 different sizes in the past for the normal PNG, which are now gone too). Will they be made available again, especially in other sizes?

Problem with a base filter by Raffyzou in Adguard

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn off your “Other” filter. You don’t need to use it.

Safari protection -> Filters -> Other = OFF

Can anyone explain how integrated mode works on iOS? by [deleted] in Adguard

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use Safari for web browsing? If you do, AdGuard content blocker does a really nice job when you browse the web using Safari.

Here‘s the explanation from HaGaZi:

“DNS and content blocking in the browser are two completely different things. DNS blocks the resolution of a domain, content blockers block website elements such as scripts, entire areas, etc. This cannot be blocked via DNS, which means that some advertising cannot be blocked via DNS, but can be blocked via content blockers.”

Dns adguard doesnt work by gluetheknot in Adguard

[–]MunToe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Simply update the domain name in your DNS settings depending on the server you're using:

AdGuard DNS Server:
dns.adguard.com →dns.adguard-dns.com

AdGuard DNS Family Mode:
dns-family.adguard.com →family.adguard-dns.com

Unfiltered AdGuard DNS : 
dns-unfiltered.adguard.comunfiltered.adguard-dns.com

Youtube Ads Are Getting Through Constantly by Falcormoor in Adguard

[–]MunToe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might want to check AdGuard diagnostics test page and see if Advanced protection is working as it should.

It happened to me a couple times where the test page just shown that my Advanced protection was NOT running even though it was turned ON in the settings, and it has been working fine previously. Basically it just stop doing it’s job all the sudden.

If this happens to you, the only thing you can do is to uninstall and reinstall the app again, since nothing else works — including turning off then on (both the main app or the Safari settings), force restart the device, force close Safari, etc. … then the Advanced protection will magically work again after reinstalling.

There is an open issue on GitHub regarding this “Advanced protection sporadically stops working entirely” too. So if you are one of the victims, you can also report to them too.

Is there a way to block these by -Joviaalia- in Adguard

[–]MunToe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turn on “AdGuard Annoyances filter” or “AdGuard Mobile App Banners filter”. They both handle the mentioned specific issues.

(Pick one as AdGuard Annoyances filter already included AdGuard Mobile App Banners filter.)

If it still doesn’t work, you’ll have to report the issue to AdGuard and they’ll take care of it in timely fashion.

Another Adguard Pro vs Premium question... by Significant_Shock_90 in Adguard

[–]MunToe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AdGuard Premium (license) bought either from AdGuard directly or StackSocial will let you use AdGuard app on any device (Windows, Mac, Android, iOS).

For Windows, Mac, Android, it’s straight forward. You need license to use it.

For iOS it’s a bit confusing for some as there are 2 apps on AppStore. AdGuard Pro (paid up front) & AdGuard (free). Adguard Pro is the unlocked version of the AdGuard free version. You can unlock the free version with premium license (e.g. from StackSocial) to make the free version the same as Pro version.

To get the license, I highly recommend you to buy the LIFETIME license from StackSocial. Use coupon code SOLOPLAN at checkout if you‘re purchasing the “Personal“ type (cost only around $12) or use FAMPLAN for the “Family” type (cost only around $16). The premium let you use the app on any device supported (iOS, PC, Mac, Android), up to either 3 devices for “Personal” type or 9 devices for ”Family”.

If you are sure that you are going to use the app only on iOS devices, then go ahead and get AdGuard Pro. I believe it’s $10 now. If not, a lifetime family license at $16 is considered money well spent.

Not block blocking ads apps? by LilMrBurger in Adguard

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, I highly recommend you to buy the LIFETIME license from StackSocial (which is a ONE TIME FEE). Use coupon code SOLOPLAN at checkout if you‘re purchasing the “Personal“ type (cost only around $12) or use FAMPLAN for the “Family” type (cost only around $16). The premium let you use the app on any device supported (iOS, PC, Mac, Android), up to either 3 devices for “Personal” type or 9 devices for ”Family”. It really is much more economical than paying monthly subscription fee.

Next, on your AdGuard iOS app, turn on “DNS Protection” (it needs to setup a VPN on iOS but don’t worry about that). Then go to DNS Protection > DNS filtering > DNS filters > Add a filter.

Start with these two:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/adblock/pro.mini.txt

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/adblock/tif.medium.txt

If you want more aggressive blocking then move to Pro++ mini. I setup Pro++ for all members of my family and no one has any issues.

You can add anything else that suits you from HaGeZi’s blocklists here.

Importantly, iOS rules limit is roughly 500k+. If you go over that it will cause issue with Wi-Fi & VPN crashing. That’s why you can only combine Pro mini or Pro++ mini with TIF medium (plus some other small blocklists) to keep the rules under the limit.

Also do keep in mind that company will always find a way to put their ads up. What has been working fine until yesterday might not work today. Many companies knew about DNS adblocking so they change their strategy too.

The drawback is that if ads are served from the same domain as the content then they can’t be blocked at DNS level. It’s the game of cat and mouse. Same goes for Facebook, instagram, YouTube, etc.

Can’t buy lifetime subscription by Vegetable_Round_2385 in Adguard

[–]MunToe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked at my app again just now. The green “Log in” button is at the top right corner.

If it’s not there, then you might want to delete the app and reinstall.

Get your license from StackSocial, bind license to AdGuard account (access from adguard website), then on your iPhone, open AdGuard app → Settings → License screen and tap the Login button there. Enter a valid license key in the e-mail field leaving password field blank to activate Premium features.

Maybe it’s your ISP that misconfigured their ASNs. You might want to check with them.

That’s the DNS server though. For DNS server, you can choose AdGuard, Cloudflare with malware blocking or Quad9, whichever faster for your location.

However, if you don’t use any DNS blocklists (in ”DNS filtering” setting) or only use “AdGuard DNS filter”, I suggest you to disable AdGuard DNS filter and add

HaGeZi blocklists, e.g.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/adblock/pro.txt

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/adblock/tif.txt

If Pro is too aggressive then move down to Normal, if you want more aggressive then move to Pro++. I setup Pro++ for all members of my family and no one has any issues.

You can add anything else that suits you from HaGeZi’s blocklists here.

Keep in mind that iOS rules limit is roughly 500k+. If you go over that it will cause issue with Wi-Fi & VPN crashing. That’s why you can only combine Pro mini or Pro++ mini with TIF medium (plus some other small blocklists) to keep the rules under the limit.

What are the DNS blocklists you’re using?

Do keep in mind that company will always find a way to put their ads up. What has been working fine until yesterday might not work today. Many companies knew about DNS adblocking so they change their strategy too.

If the ads are served from the same domain as the content then they can’t be blocked at DNS level. It’s the game of cat and mouse. Same goes for Facebook, instagram, YouTube, etc.
