I have been using the hosts file based ad blocker AdAway for at least two years. It runs on my smartphones and tablet, all rooted, thus I can run a VPN simultaneously. Since it has always worked flawlessly, I never really took the time to compare it to other similar apps.

But as of today, there hasn’t been an update since 2024.

I am asking for alternatives and the reason you think they’re better.

    I think we’ve got off track. Stevenblack’s is already shipped with AdAway. AdAway works perfectly fine with Magisk’s systemless hosts. I have no other reason for wanting to change to another app than the fact that it hasn’t been updated since 2024.
