Ad Cleanse & Search version history - 10 versions

  • Be careful with old versions! These versions are displayed for testing and reference purposes.You should always use the latest version of an add-on.

  • Latest version

    Version 1.2.0

    Released Sep 3, 2026 - 503.31 KB
    Works with firefox 140.0 and later
    • Redesigned the privacy choices page with a clearer layout and a full breakdown of what the extension and its services collect.
    • The privacy choices page now opens on its own in a background tab right after install, instead of waiting until the first time you open the popup.
    • Added an ad-detection report that sends the page you are viewing and the page you came from, along with a persistent identifier, so ad and redirect chains that slip past blocking can be traced. The technical-data choice on the privacy page does not affect this report.
    • Fixed YouTube video ads that could play all the way through instead of being skipped. The Skip control is now located reliably and the ad is stepped past within a few seconds.
    • Your sound setting is now restored exactly as it was once an ad ends, instead of the video staying muted.
    • Ad skipping now keeps working after moving between videos without a full page reload.
    • Ad skipping is bounded so a stale ad marker can never fast-forward the video you actually want to watch.
    • Updated the extension icon and logo.

    Version 1.1.8

    Released Jul 21, 2026 - 471.68 KB
    Works with firefox 140.0 and later
    • Fixed an issue where declining optional data collection during first-time setup could leave the welcome screen stuck in a loop instead of continuing into the extension.
    • Improved reliability of the internal session identifier used for diagnostics, preventing it from occasionally falling back to a generic placeholder value.
    • Improved consistency of how the extension's display name is sourced internally, keeping it in sync with the packaged translations.
    • Improved reliability of tracking when a browser preference change is accepted later than expected.
    • General packaging and maintenance updates.

  • Version 1.0.8

    Released Jun 25, 2026 - 470.42 KB

    • Extension settings now open in a full browser tab instead of a small panel, making the options page easier to use.
    • Moved domain configuration into a single file so all URL settings are defined in one place.
    • Removed the separate landing page domain system; the extension now operates on a single domain.
    • Added search activity tracking to the user profile for better attribution accuracy.
    • Removed the install-time tab notification system that was no longer needed.
    • Standardized the settings page code to use consistent syntax across the extension.
