Dynamic icon #4317

AdGuard for Android now has a dynamic icon. If you are using themed icons on your smartphone, the AdGuard app will also match the color of your system.

HTTP/3 filtering support #487

AdGuard now not only filters HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 traffic. In this beta we have added experimental support for HTTP/3 filtering. The HTTP/3 protocol, powered by the QUIC network protocol, provides better privacy and security, as well as a more stable and faster Internet connection. By enabling HTTP/3 filtering, you can take advantage of the QUIC protocol and effectively block ads and trackers.

To enable HTTP/3 filtering, go to Settings → General → Advanced → Low-level settings → Filter HTTP/3 and toggle the switch to the right.

Support for two HTTPS certificates

By implementing two HTTPS certificates, we have fixed an issue with HTTPS filtering in Chrome version 100 and above on rooted devices. While the certificate in the system store will be responsible for filtering in most apps, the certificate in the user store will allow AdGuard to filter HTTPS traffic in Chromium-based browsers.

Installing certificates has also become easier: we've added step-by-step instructions.

To install the second certificate, go to Settings → Filtering → Network → HTTPS filtering → Security сertificates and follow the instructions.
