Anti-Banner

This feature is available only in the Plus and Premium subscription plans for the Kaspersky app.

Many websites show pop-up banner ads on pages you visit, because they earn money for each tap or for showing the banner to a certain number of users.

On mobile devices, banner ads often cover the actual content you’re browsing or make it temporarily inaccessible, forcing you to wait before you can close them.

Anti-Banner in the Kaspersky app lets you block such banners in the Safari browser. This functionality is based on Apple’s Content Blocker and Safari Web Extension tools for Safari.

To start blocking ads in Safari, you need to turn on Anti-Banner in the app, as well as enable both Kaspersky’s extensions in your device system settings. The steps for turning on these extensions depend on the version of iOS.
