Installed on my s7 edge, it's not working .How do I uninstall it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] arvylas:
Works great
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Glotzeulor:
For uninstalling you will have to remove it from device administrators.

I Installed it but it doesn't seem to do anything. Just a spinning circle. Also i don't see anything about ad blocking on the disconnect.me website. Are you sure that is included?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] drnote:
How to access device administrators
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Glotzeulor:
My device is in german, so i am not sure about what everything is called in english, but it should be: settings --> Security/Device Security --> Other/Advanced Security Settings --> Device Administrators
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] xploziff2:
It works extremely well ! I think you need to be on stock ( non-rooted ) it uses knox in order to work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sevael:
It still works if you are rooted, but yes, you need Knox to be present on your phone. It won't work if you have removed Knox.

This isn't really useful for rooted phones and custom ROMs because you could just use AdAway. This is a huge boon for non-rooted phones, however.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] drnote:
Installed my knox and it seems to be working now
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] saadramiz:
I feel this is just better than adaway coz 1 doesnt need to update it manually if he/she wouldnt like to have a running notification always. And this is active blocking much more like a desktop browser plug in, works really well.

Im using Stock + Prometheus (disables knox) and it works for me seamlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sevael:
AdAway modifies the hosts file, it doesn't really need to be updated and it doesn't have any notification or background process running. Other non-root solutions like Ad Guard work that way, but AdAway doesn't.

AdAway is still the superior option, though Disconnect Pro is very close. The main difference I find is that when using AdAway, pages seem to load the blank ad space earlier, so if you are scrolling down a page while it is still loading or trying to hit a link, the page doesn't jump around. With Disconnect Pro, the empty ad space pops in towards the end of the page loading, much like the way it does with no ad blocker at all, so loading pages jump around a lot. Trying to tap on links too early often results in you tapping something else entirely as things jump around.

I noticed this difference right away after switching to Disconnect Pro from AdAway. I'm a power browser; I know what I am looking for, I scan quickly, and I don't like waiting for pages to fully load before I tap on links when I know where I am headed next. With Disconnect Pro, I have to slow down a bit and that gets frustrating at times. It is especially noticeable on forums.

That said, Disconnect Pro is still good enough. Solid ad blocking without a VPN or background process is my primary reason for rooting, and now I can get nearly the same quality of ad blocking without root. This is a big win.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Pinmac:
I have downloaded and installed this and My Knox , rebooted and still seeing ads in Chrome. Any suggestions please?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] whocares2:
My understanding is that you may still see Ads with Disconnect: its goal is not to remove ad, but block trackers.

I think that many trackers use the same url base that the ads themselves, so preventing the tracker prevents the ads, or maybe some ads does not work without their related tracker.

You can try to complement it with Block this or something like that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] zachchen1996:
Try the Samsung browser with adguard content blocker.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sevael:
I don't see any ads in Chrome whatsoever.

Make sure you actually run Disconnect Pro and activate all three of the things in the pop-up. Simply installing it isn't enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] DJSmoove:
This is the best ad blocker and tracker blocker. Less than 12 hours of having this app I haven't seen any ads. Follow all the instructions when installing this app you won't have any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] pogi.paul0119:
I agree.this is the best adblocker for not rooted device.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] boo85:
It works very well! However I realised there are some ads its not able to manage. Two examples would be "block tank 2" and "Dolce Gusto Timer", it seems to be unable to block full screen video ads. Adguard had no issues with those, anyone has any issues regarding this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] darkmage17:
Try to clear cache. BTW YouTube ads still showing. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Glotzeulor:
It is working for me now. Installing MyKnox wasn't enough, i also had to start and setup it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] eris_roote:
Is anyone able to share the apk? I have a T-Mobile Note 5 but currently after contacting the dev's there is an issue with downloading on Note 5's.

TIA!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] mkim055:
Youtube ad not showing anymore for my s7 edge.

Also seems to work as intended, showing lots of blocked trackers in the app log.

One more reason not to root my phone!

Thank you dev!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Dmitry N:
Here you go.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] crutzulee:
As I understand it, this is only free for a week. I haven' t tried to hard to get it to work but would be willing to install my knox if it does indeed get rid of youtube adds.

I would even be willing to pay for the app after the trial period...but $50???

Thats cray cray
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] kcodya:
No, if you download it during the free period, it's free for life.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] darkmage06:
Does it really block youtube ads? Cause I still see them here on my phone after installing it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] |Night|:
I have to agree with crutzulee, I would pay for this app however 50$ is just way to much 25-30$ yes but more than that highly doubtfull.

On a side note what happens when/if i reset device, do I have to pay then or can I still reinstall?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] eris_roote:
Thank you so much!

Amazing app! This is just in 20 minutes

[IMG="Disconnect Pro results"]http://i.imgur.com/g2U92yu.jpg[/IMG]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] swiftfury:
Amazing app, blocked soany trailers and gives detailed information on the blocked trackers. It does seem to affect battery life though, since those trackers seem to keep reconnecting.

On a side note, once I install the app and if I need to format my phone, does that mean I will have to buy the app in the future?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] reignman35:
Dumb question amnesty: how the f do you get the Samsung Galaxy Apps or download anything similar? I searched for a while and found zero info on how you download or access them on your phone. I have an AT&T stock S7 btw.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] mixxxk:
Samsung Galaxy Apps is pre-installed on ur AT&T device. you can also check under Accounts in Settings and make sure u have a Samsung Account stored in there. u may have hit skip during ur initial setup.

Also, thank you OP for this app.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] mkim055:
It seems the app doesn't block all the youtube ads.

Just had 1 ad pop up
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] gpap2004:
Stuck in refresh. As i read in developer's comments, there will be an update.They try to fix that bug. But if you install My Knox from Play Store , is working flawlessly! So install , run and setup My Knox first. After that you can unistall My knox. The app is amazing. Blocks everything. No need for vpn anymore to block ad content!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] reignman35:
Thank you for that. Full disclosure I had forgotten I had disabled the Galaxy app in Package Disabler. I appreciate the help.

I did get the program installed, and seems to be working quite well so far. Mad props to original poster for bringing this to everyone's attention.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] mediumsteak:
According to the reddit discussion about this app, it currently suffers incompatibility with Google Play Music, however the dev is definitely looking into fixing that.

If the app does gets stuck on the spinning circle, you may need to download My Knox from the Galaxy Apps store and set that up.

Users have also reported that once set up, My Knox can only be removed via the Play Store and not in the Applications Settings page itself.

Good luck all!

Hello

Please share the apk Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Dmitry N:
Actually, the "free" version will stop working tomorrow. Everyone who plans to continue using it will need to buy it then.

https://blog.disconnect.me/pro-app-for-samsung-apple/

PS: They deliberately won't let you know for sure whether once installed within that period, it will be free for ever or not, but my guess is we will have to pay.

I'm a newbie so this may not be the right forum but. . . I have a Galaxy S5 and I can't find this app in the app store at all. Any suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong.. or is it no longer available? I guess I should add I've been trying to find it for days with no luck and I can't figure out why. I installed Knox as someone suggested but no luck. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sevael:
This app doesn't work on the S5 or older phones. Only S6 and up.

Edit: To clarify, Disconnect Pro requires Knox version 2.6 and up, and Knox 2.6+ only works on newer phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] jark99:
Does anyone find the Disconnect app causes battery drain? I'm not sure if it's due to the fact that Google and other apps are trying to ping the device, but I feel it does take a hit to battery
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] nitrous²:
All non-root adblockers will cause more battery drain, since they work by passing all traffic through their VPN, which is constantly running. The adblocker may be shown at the top of your battery statistics but don't listen to that. See this for further info. It's from Adguard but it applies to almost every non-root AdBlock services https://kb.adguard.com/index.php?/K...ndroid-battery-and-traffic-consumption-issues

Is there a way to whitelist any domains? It completely blocks Gumtree on my phone and having to disable it every time I want to use Gumtree is a pain! There are no settings page in the Disconnect Pro app from what I can see.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lexluthor:
Doesn't look like it. I just ran into the same problem. Seems like you'd need to temporarily disable disconnect to get to that site.

Well worth the £20 I just spent. It works great on my note 8. And no battery drain
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] byte9:
Everybody says no battery drain but just because knox services aren't showing up in stats doesn't mean 0 toll. It takes a high amount of cpu interaction to filter thousands of tcp requests. It's software running on a device, it does not somehow escape the laws of physics because it has a knox license. I've used it and Adhell and if something goes ****y aka gapps or a rogue game hitting an ad network 4x a second it'll wreck the battery just like anything filtering traffic.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] rindertb:
Nobody said 0 toll, either. pnr2020 stated: 'No battery drain.' Permitting tracing and downloading ads neither has 0 toll. Off course something going rogue is always possible. I remember reading about an issue with some google app. Which got fixed.
