    Hi, can you please indicate which ad blocker you use, if it is the one to stop the mobile app ads displaying? Also assuming it is for an Android phone. Tia.

    I use something called Adaway. It used to be on android store but now it's been taken down. They do have a separate website online last time I checked.

    If people are really interested I could look into uploading my version of the .apk online. It works by blocking known ad URLs so the ads never pop up and you just run the videos.

    Thanks for the info and the offer. I feel sure that many of us would be hugely grateful to you if you were able to do so.

    Hope I've done it correctly, you should be able to download it here. It's a really old version because I never update my apps

    I'm looking at its current website and it doesn't look like it
    http://free-software-for-android.github.io/AdAway/

    Maybe you can test out apple adblockers to see whether any of them work!

    Just did a cursory search on reddit got this

    For anyone else who's been irritated by the copa90 ads on the apps it seems to have finally gone for me - just working through some bonus rounds on the SBTV app then will try some of the others again (but a quick check of movieclips on my other handset hasn't thrown it up either).
    It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

    Try much later in the day. I only get a couple of ads at the beginning when I start late afternoon.
