Gransnet adverts with sound!

Just found Adblocks for Safari app to download for free which I have just done.

Or I've just found this:
How to add AdBlock in Google Chrome

Just Google AdBlock and things will come up.

Do you use Google Chrome? I've just seen this:
Open Google Chrome. Open the Settings menu, and click Security and Privacy. Select Site Settings, and then click Additional permissions. From here, you can toggle Ads on or off, and also adjust Popups and redirects.
So maybe you can control ads from within Chrome?

Does anyone know if AdBlocker would work when playing WordswithFriends?

Hi FlexibleFriend how do I get it for free please?

AdBlocker is free.

I use an iPad there is not adverts with sounds I have adverts at the side which I don’t see because they are off the screen but no sound with them ??
I don’t have any blockers !

Well I'm using a computer. I don't know how but I just went to AdBlocker and downloaded it. It's not showing in my list of installed programs but it seems to work and for free.

How do I get it for free Chestnut? I wondered if it’s because I want it for my IPad?

I have AdBlocker and it's free.

I was tempted by Adblocker but it’s £2.99 for the first month and £9.99 a month thereafter so l’ll put up with the ads.

I agree with Chestnut. I used to find GN adverts particularly annoying because of their intrusiveness if that is a word.

Can't sympathise really because I have Ad Blocker and don't see or hear any adverts ?

Thanks for the advice. I will look into those.

I sometimes accidently set off the videos on the BBC news pages which can give us quite a shock (I prefer to read the news.) and solved the problem by turning the volume right down. Easy enough to turn it back up when needed.

MamaCaz, just download AdBlock Plus. I've had it for years and it's really good. Sometimes you have to 'unblock' a webpage e.g. to read a newspaper article - but it's done with a couple of clicks.

Try using an ad blocking browser like Brave. There are other ones as well as Brave.
