How to stop ads being displayed in iOS apps.

in #steemit8 years ago

Hello Steemians, this is my first first how-to article and in this I am going to tell you the secret recipe to stop those annoying ads from popping up when you are playing some game or using an app. First, let me make it clear that I strongly believe that we should allow the developers to show ads because this way only they raise funds required for maintenance of their apps and make a living, and either we should opt for the premium version or allow them to show ads to support the developers.
This is a simple tutorial and you don't need to do any coding or jailbreak your iPhone but it has its own drawbacks too about which I'll talk later.

You just need to go to Settings and then navigate to settings of the particular app, and then turn off access to Mobile Data as soon as you install the app. This stops it from pre-loading the ads too and you can now enjoy a completely ad-free experience, voila!

I haven't used Android since a long time, so, I don't know if recent updates in Android allows us to turn off Mobile Data for a particular app. If it does, you can follow the same procedure in Android too. The only drawback is that you can use this trick with apps that can run offline, most of the apps can't run offline but games do so you can play almost any game without having to see those annoying ads.
