    I have AdGuard set up at home and OpenVPN so I can connect to my home network and route all my traffic through it. Gives the same ad blocking ability but without the need to travel with it.

      Can I ask why you’ve taken this approach? I understand why you would use AdGuard at home, but couldn’t you just also use it on your phone/laptop as well when you are away?

      Wouldn’t using the VPN to your home network just add extra latency? Or is there some benefit that I’m not aware of?

        The main reason is that it lets me access my home network. So if I want to watch a movie or something I have stored on my NAS, I can do that without exposing that service to the internet. Or if I want to Remote Desktop into one of my computers. And it’s a decent way to protect Internet traffic while on an untrusted public network.

        I used to use the AdGuard app on my iPhone, but 1) I found for whatever reason it didn’t seem to work as well as the standalone self hosted version. The way it works on phones is that it does some sort of local VPN trickery, and for whatever reason it’s like it would temporarily stop working. Who knows. But 2) now I just have a single instance of AdGuard to manage and get its benefits on all my devices. I don’t need to maintain lists or rules for the one running at home and separately maintain rules in the phone app version.
