Where Does the AdGuard App Store Data?
AdGuard full app data stays under its sideload package. Play hosts only the Content Blocker sibling with separate storage.
Last updated
Adblocker AdGuard splits full filtering and Play compliant blocking into separate listings. The full app runs a sideload only package removed from Play in 2014. The Content Blocker sibling lives on Play with separate storage. Each listing keeps its own filters and settings.
iOS runs extension builds with their own IDs. Filters sync with the AdGuard account where signed in. The same license works across listings. Do not copy one profile into the other. Separate storage keeps each stored profile apart.
