3 interrelated questions:
In Settings/Reset it is stated that Trusted Apps and Websites can be saved. Does this mean that the Black- and White-lists from the dashboard are NOT saved?
In Settings/Devices/d e v i c e/Blocker my device is set to Automatic, resulting in the use of Patern-Blockers. I have however a list of domains that are neither blocked by eBlocker, nor by AdGuard Pro. Is there an option to include that black-domain-list somewhere, rather than entering them one by one.
Domains can be included manually in the black- or white-list. When you ‘thick’ on such a domain, it’s gone! Would prefer an On/Off- tick here and a removal elsewhere.

Dashboard = device individual settings - and of course everything is saved, unless it‘s a bug 😉
Setting blocker to automatic chooses pattern blocker if https is enabled for device, otherwise domain blocker (i.e. on smartTVs).
Adding blacklist domains from lists can be done under setting/blockers/domain blockers/ add - but just from a URL not a static list at the moment. To me, it’s not really clear what you try to achieve. Maybe Parental Controls can be used here? Please describe the use case more clearly.
Feature requests go in the corresponding forum please - and a little more verbose please - otherwise it’s gonna get lost here.
About the “device individual settings”, OK, got it.
Automatic + HTTPS = Pattern, got that to 🙂
What i try to achieve: After the bankruptcy of GmbH i started using AdGuard Pro on my iPad. Reasons being that i couldn’t get HTTPS working (wrong certificate) and no longer got support from GmbH. While surfing the net and using apps, i noticed lots of domains with trackers which were not blocked by AdGuard. I made a list of those domains.
Now, using eBlocker again, i noticed that quite a few of those domains are not blocked by eBlocker as well. To give an example, AdGuard detected (but did not block) the Google-domains shown in the enclosed list. (i hate Google 🙂
So, i want those domains blocked even while my eBlocker is set to pattern-blocking.

As a „simple“ workaround since the list is static you can use parental controls. Add your list as a new parental controls blacklist (you can copy/past the list). Add a user, say „Google hater“. Assign blacklist to „Google hater“ as well as all devices that need Google blacklisting. Done. No more Google.
Hmm, still got a problem
- Placed my blacklist on the internet (entering the URL in a browser shows the list content)
- Added my blacklist with its URL as a Domain List in the WEB SITE BLACKLISTS
- made a new TestUser with a Pin and role ‘Other’
- gave ownership of my iPad to TestUser
- when Editing access to restricted web sites for TestUser, i see all the predefined
categories, but NOT my blacklist!
Hope you can help, Rob

Feel free to share what went wrong, so others don't run into the same issue (and we might improve user interface...)
If i only knew what went wrong. I didn’t change any of the settings i mentioned this morning. I have the impression that a cache somewhere played tricks with me; ‘all of a sudden’ it worked, although this could well have been the case after i updated the eBlocker with 1 available update and all eBlocker interfaces restarted.
The result can be seen in the enclosed picture; the eBlocker doesn’t stop to surprise me.
