Compatibility

Atualmente, o AdGuard VPN para Mac é compatível com versões do macOS a partir do macOS Catalina (10.15).

Tela inicial

A primeira guia é a Tela Inicial. Here you can see the current status of AdGuard VPN, the selected location (if enabled) and its ping. Ping é o tempo de resposta de um servidor VPN. The lower the number, the faster the connection. If VPN is disabled, the last location you connected to is displayed at the bottom.

The fastest locations with the lowest pings are displayed in the upper right corner of the screen. There is also a refresh button that you can click if any locations are offline. Abaixo pode ver a lista completa dos locais. The search field makes it easy to find the location you need.

note

Usuários gratuitos podem se conectar apenas a determinados locais, enquanto outros são bloqueados. Além disso, há um limite de tráfego mensal de 3 GB na versão gratuita.

Saved locations

On the same tab, you can save your favorite locations to access them quickly.

Just hover over a location, click the bookmark icon that appears, and it will be saved. Your marked locations will then show up in the Saved tab.

Exclusões

AdGuard VPN has several features that make it unique, and one of them is definitely Exclusions. By default, AdGuard VPN will run on all websites and in all apps but the ones from the exclusions list. But you can switch to the other mode, so AdGuard VPN will run only on websites and in apps from the exclusions list.

Also you can not only add websites to Exclusions but also choose among the lists of popular services. The lists are divided into eight categories: Social networks, Messengers, Video and Music streaming services, Games, Shopping, Search engines, and Work communication tools. Any of these services can be added to Exclusions in one click! It’s especially convenient if you use Selective mode.

Exclusion list can be easily configured. If you’ve added a domain and some of its subdomains, they’ll be grouped inside the root one. When adding a root domain (example.com) its mask is added too (*.example.com).

Browsers added to Exclusions

Starting with the version 2.4, all browsers are automatically added to the list of exclusions when the VPN is active only for selected apps and websites. This change brings more convenience for users who were often confused and didn’t know whether to consider their browsers as apps or not. It applies under the following conditions:

• The user has installed AdGuard VPN for the first time
• The user did not modify the Exclusions settings prior to v2.4

If you’ve added a service, changed or removed something and now want to recover initial settings, just press Reset to default next to the domain — this action will restore any missing domains and tick all checkboxes.

What’s more, ready-made exclusions lists can be transferred to other devices with installed AdGuard VPN. To export exclusions, follow the four-step instruction below:

1. Abra o AdGuard VPN no dispositivo de onde você deseja exportar as suas listas de exclusões. Encontre a seção apropriada e clique no botão Exportar. O arquivo exclusions.zip será baixado.
2. Existem dois arquivos .txt dentro do arquivo, cada um para as listas Geral e Seletiva. Adicione mais exclusões a eles, exclua os existentes, renomeie os arquivos (mais sobre isso mais tarde) ou simplesmente deixe o arquivo com os arquivos como está.
3. When transferring between different devices, don’t forget to send the .zip file to the device for import. Por exemplo, se você importar listas de exclusão do Mac para o iPhone, certifique-se de enviar o arquivo .zip para o telefone com antecedência.
4. Abra o AdGuard VPN no dispositivo/navegador onde deseja importar o arquivo com as listas de exclusões prontas. Encontre a seção apropriada, clique no botão Importar e selecione o arquivo. Feito!

note

Archive files from other devices can be similarly imported to your AdGuard VPN for Mac.

Stats

The Stats screen provides detailed information about traffic consumed by location and app, most used locations and apps. View data for the day, month, or the entire time AdGuard VPN for Mac has been in use.

Importantly, all data is stored locally on your device, so no one but you has access to it. The Statistics feature is available to users with an AdGuard VPN subscription.

Suporte

The fourth tab is the Support screen. Find answers to any questions in the FAQ or in the Knowledge base sections, report a bug if you encounter one, or discuss AdGuard on any of the platforms. And feel free to leave feedback about our product, we’d appreciate it.

Configurações

Finally, we come to the Settings tab. In the About program section you can see the current version of AdGuard VPN, check for updates, visit our official website, and get acquainted with AdGuard’s EULA and Privacy policy. In the About license section you can upgrade from free to unlimited, manage your subscription, or log out. And most importantly, from here you can access General settings.

App settings

The first four basic features make the application more convenient and user-friendly, i.e. Kill Switch, Auto-update, Launch AdGuard VPN at login, and Auto-connect on app launch. What’s more, you can choose between light, dark, and system themes — the latter one matches the theme on your Mac.

You can also allow AdGuard VPN to gather and send anonymized crash reports, technical and interaction data in order to help us improve our app. Last but not least, you can export logs from your Mac. This can be useful if you want to attach logs to your message to support.

DNS servers

One or more DNS servers can be set up here. This is useful if you don’t want to rely on the default DNS server provided by your ISP. Select one from the list of popular DNS services or add a custom server manually. We recommend adding AdGuard DNS, which not only encrypts your DNS traffic, but also identifies requests to malicious websites and redirects them to a “black hole”.

Advanced settings

Nível de registro

There are only two logging levels but we strongly recommend that you use the first, default one. The second option (extended logging) should be set only to record a strange program behavior after consulting our technical support. If you have enabled the extended logging level, make sure to switch to the default one after recording logs.

Ocultar ícone da barra de menus

Although this option is located in Advanced settings, it can be enabled without hesitation. You can hide the AdGuard VPN icon from the menu bar, it won’t prevent our app from running in the background.

Use QUIC

QUIC communication protocol is the latest, cutting-edge version of HTTP. Toggle the switch to get a better connection quality in less-than-ideal conditions, while using mobile data in the subway or elevator, for instance.
