This update is all about exclusions — we hope you’ll have even more reasons to interact with them. In iOS, exclusions are now catching up with the functionality available in the AdGuard VPN desktop and Android apps. If you only use our iOS app, these changes will be rather new to you.

Domain lists for popular services

“Exclusions are simple: add google.com, and VPN will be off for Google. You don’t even need to tap Disconnect.”

Yes and no. Large services are tricky. They usually use more than one domain — one for media files, another for the API, plus domains for different countries. In the case of Google, we have 416 domains in our list — all of them need to be added to exclusions to completely turn VPN off (or on) for the service.

Now, this list of domains is available in AdGuard VPN for iOS. How does it work?

  1. Open Exclusions
  2. Tap Add website
  3. Tap From list
  4. Select the desired service from the popular ones

Done! All necessary domains will be added automatically.

The work is still in progress: in the next version, we’ll also add icons for each service.

Improved subdomain management

In the past, you might have added google.com to exclusions, and the Google website would think you’re in Germany. But Gmail wouldn’t, because the mail.google.com subdomain had to be added separately.

Now, when you manually add a domain, all subdomains are added automatically (it looks like *.google.com). Want to keep only google.com or turn VPN off for a specific domain? Tap the line with the website — it will open a separate screen where you can manage subdomains.

And if you manually add a subdomain, the main domain will also be added — but the checkbox next to it will not be checked.
