Pop ups can be rife online, certainly on shadier parts of the internet. Disturbing your web surfing with ads, competitions, and potential scams, you can opt to block such instances with pop up blocker Android. Some pop up blockers will also block ads on websites too, which depending on your shopping habits, can help you or hinder you when it comes to finding new products.
