No adblocker extension working after 16.3.1 update

[narc1981]

Hi, after upgrading my iOS devices to 16.3.1, my adblocker extensions in safari do not work anymore.
Extensions seem correctly enabled, but ads are not blocked ad all. I’ve tried 5 different adblockers, same result.
Tried with no success uninstalling and reinstalling all the extensions.

The issue was experienced on my iPhone 13 pro and my iPad 9th gen.

Anyone experiencing the same problem? any suggestion to fix?

Thanks!

What adblockers are you using? I use AdGuard and it's fine here, running 16.3.1 also.

Adguard works fine for me. Which ones have you tried?

Same is happening to me. Check to see if it is turned on for each website. I noticed that I have to turn it on every time I click on a link or start a new tab. I have a ticket open with Apple.

Is there a setting here that we’re missing? I downloaded both working ones from this thread and still didn’t work.

In settings under safari > extensions

For Wipr you have to go to settings safari and enable it that’s all.

If you are having trouble, I would turn off the extensions, uninstall them, reboot the device, then start from scratch.

Wipr working like a champ for me too. Try going into the Wipr app, click on Automatic Refresh then Refresh Now. You can also tap the Compass for a simple test and suggestions.
