Releases: AdguardTeam/AdGuardForSafari
1.8.5 Release
You had to wait for some time for this AdGuard for Safari update, and we did everything we could to make the wait worthwile. From several new options to export/import user settings, blocklists, allowlists, and user rules — to multiple bugfixes and enhancements. v1.8.5 makes ad blocking in Safari better and much more convenient.
[Added] User rules and Allowlist Export/Import feature #320
This feature is present in every other AdGuard app or browser extension, so it made a ton of sense to add it to AdGuard for Safari too. You can export your User rules to a local file at any time, as well as import from a file. Same goes for Allowlist; note that if you switch to Inverted Allowlist, you can export/import it too. All in all, it's useful when you want to reinstall the extension for any reason or transfer your preferences between browsers/devices.
[Added] User settings Export/Import feature #16
Speaking of. Just as with User rules and Allowlist, it's now possible to do the same for your settings configuration. By the way, export feature will take into account which filters you have currently enabled too, even including your custom filters.

1.8.4 Beta
It took us a month to test the first beta version, but the second one comes much sooner. Partly that's because it contains no new features, just bugfixes and improvements. But we all know — it's still super important, especially when preparing for a new release.

1.8.2 Release
This release brings a lot of fixes and small UI/UX improvements. Namely, we added Dark Mode and automatic mode switch support, updated localizations, and removed obsolete filters.
[Added] An option to import custom filters from a local file #345
It's not always convenient to maintain a custom filter in a cloud. Now you have an alternative: create a local text file, edit it according to our filtering rules syntax and add it to your AdGuard for Safari. Voila, you have a new custom filter, just like any other.
[Added] Dark Mode for versions starting from macOS Mojave (10.14) and automatic mode switch support for versions starting from macOS Catalina #120
[Improved] Updated Electron to v8.0 #286
In a nutshell, Electron is a framework for building cross-platform desktop apps. AdGuard for Safari extension is made on it, so upgrading the framework solved lots of UI issues.
[Improved] Removed autosave in the filter editor and added the Save button
It turned out that autosave caused UI problems. We removed it. Now you can save filters by pressing Ctrl + S or by clicking the Save button.
