Side-by-Side Comparison
Which Should You Choose?
AdBlock edges out Adblock Plus on both rating and review volume, and its default blocking is stricter out of the box.
AdBlock rates 4.8 stars across 296,855 reviews, notably higher than Adblock Plus's 4.5 stars across 177,207 reviews. Despite the similar names, these are separate products from different developers: Adblock Plus runs an Acceptable Ads program that allows some ads through unless you disable it, while AdBlock does not participate in that program by default. For users who want ads blocked without extra configuration, AdBlock's numbers and defaults make it the more popular choice.
