Releases: AdguardTeam/AdguardForMac
2.6.0 RC 2
Disclaimer Adguard for Mac is not an open-source project. We use GitHub as an open bug tracker for users to see what developers are working on.
And here it comes — the second release candidate of AdGuard 2.6 for Mac. One RC just wasn't enough for us, so we release another one, which gives us an opportunity to update the CoreLibs (and thus improve filtering quality) once again. Also in this version we have added the ability to install AdGuard Browser Assistant in beta- and dev versions of Chrome browser. It seems now that the release is definitely just around the corner.
Changelog
- [Fixed] AdGuard assistant: Add the ability to install in Chrome Beta/Chrome dev browser #950
- [Enhancement] CoreLibs updated to 1.8.214 #960

We are happy to announce that such features as DNS filtering and Native Apple Silicon support have been added to AdGuard for Mac. We know you've been waiting for this feature so long, and so have we.
DNS filtering support #685
We've used the same approach as in AdGuard for Windows, Android, and iOS, bringing to the app for Mac DNS servers, DNS blocklists and allowlists. One of feature requests from users was adding DNSCrypt, DoH, and DoT support. Finally, it's all there, DoT included. AdGuard DNS has become the first public DNS resolver to support the cutting-edge DNS-over-QUIC protocol.
Now you needn't rely on a DNS server provided by your ISP by default, you can choose DNS servers from known DNS providers and add custom DNS servers. You can also add domains to DNS blocklist or allowlist and add complicated rules using DNS rules syntax.
Besides, you can add DNS filters of your choice. You can find various filters and links to them here.
Native Apple Silicon support #801
Another great news is that we're added М1 support, now AdGuard for Mac is fully optimized to run on Apple Silicon.

Today we are launching a small but still very important hotfix. Namely, the compatibility with the new Chrome 87 was improved and the CoreLibs was updated.
[Other] ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR on some websites #1374
This week Chrome 87 was released, which has a compatibility problem with AdGuard when using the HTTP/2 filtering protocol - some sites may experience regular hangs and download errors. In this update we have improved HTTP/2 filtering compatibility with Chrome 87, it is recommended to upgrade to the new stable version as soon as possible. :)
[Fixed] BigSur: AdGuard can't start protection in Network Extension filtering mode because of codeSignatureInvalid error
Also in this update, the issue which many Big Sur users encountered was fixed. AdGuard network extension couldn't pass the authenticity verification of the developer's signature. Because of that, it was impossible to turn the Network Extension mode on and to enable AdGuard protection.
Changelog
- [Fixed] AdGuard stops working after the system is out of sleep #781
- [Fixed] Change the KEXT behavior in case of a change of user #769
- [Other] Protection switch is stuck after system update
- [Other] Update CoreLibs to 1.7.150 #787
