AdGuard “Error updating filters” on iOS

Hi everyone,

I’m using AdGuard on iOS and recently ran into an issue that I can’t figure out. The app says protection is enabled, but there’s a message showing “Error updating filters.”

My setup:

• Device: iPhone XS • iOS version: 16.6.1 • AdGuard version: 4.5.19 

What I’m seeing:

• Ad blocking is turned on and appears active • Most default filters (Ads, Privacy, Annoyances, etc.) are enabled • But the app fails whenever it tries to update filter lists 

I’m not sure whether:

• My filters are now outdated and might not block ads properly • Or if this is just a temporary issue (server or connection related) 

What I’ve tried so far:

• Turning protection off and on again • Manually refreshing/updating filters • Checking my internet connection 

The error still persists.

Questions:

1. Is this a common issue with AdGuard on iOS? 2. Does this actually affect ad-blocking performance? 3. Any known fixes or workarounds for this? 

Would really appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks!
