2.Common Questions
Can I allow a site that was blocked?
You can add an allow rule for a domain you trust. Check the blocked domain first: a page can rely on several domains, and you don't want to allow something unrelated.
Can different devices have different filters?
Filtering settings is per device, so you can choose different settings for your different devices.
Will this remove every ad inside every app?
No. Smart Blocking works at the domain level. It isn't a tool for removing individual elements from a page or guaranteeing an ad-free experience everywhere.
Does it replace being careful with downloads and links?
No. Filtering reduces unwanted connections, but no threat list or classifier catches everything. Keep your devices updated and be careful with unfamiliar files and links.
