Pages that crawl
Ad and tracker scripts can make a page three times slower to load — up to nine seconds on mobile. Every page, every visit.
Ad shield
Block the noise before it loads.
Ad Shield drops ads, trackers, and malware domains at the DNS level — before they ever reach your device. Lighter pages, less data, nothing following you around. On every app, automatically.
Works in every app, not just browsersNothing to configureIncluded in every plan
3x lighter pages fewer requests to load
~45% less mobile data ads stripped before download
~30% less battery drain no ad scripts running
99.9% block rate of known ad & tracker domains
The problem
Most of the web you load
isn't the web you wanted.
Ads and trackers ride along on nearly every page — slowing things down, draining your battery, and watching where you go.
Battery you never spent
Ad scripts run in the background long after you scroll past. They can quietly draw a meaningful share of your daily battery.
Data you paid for
A real slice of your monthly mobile data goes to ads you never asked to see — downloaded on your dime, then discarded.
Quiet tracking
Trackers follow you across sites and apps, stitching together a behavioural profile in the background — no click required.
The fastest request is the one that's never made.
So we stop it before it leaves your device.How it works
Filtered at the DNS layer,
not bolted onto your browser.
Every app on your device looks up domains through DinoLink's encrypted resolver. We decide what resolves.
01
Resolve
When any app — browser, game, or social feed — asks where a domain lives, the request travels through DinoLink's encrypted DNS resolver instead of your network's.
02
Filter
Ad, tracker, and malware domains are matched against a continuously updated blocklist and simply never resolved. The connection is never opened, so nothing downloads.
03
Deliver
Only the domains you actually want come back. Pages arrive lighter and faster, streams start without pre-roll, and nothing trails you between apps.
Why network-level
Ad Shield vs a browser extension.
An extension only sees one browser tab. Ad Shield works one layer down — so it covers everything that touches the network.

FAQ
Ad Shield, answered.
Rarely. The blocklist is maintained to target ad, tracker, and malware domains while leaving site functionality intact. If something ever misbehaves, you can whitelist that domain in one tap from Settings → Ad Shield.
Yes — that's the whole point of doing this at the DNS level. Because every app resolves domains through DinoLink, Ad Shield blocks ads and trackers in your video apps, social feeds, news readers, and games, not only in a browser tab.
Included in every DinoLink plan at no extra charge. Turn it on with a single toggle in Settings → Ad Shield. It's on by default.
No. Ad Shield blocks requests before they're made, so blocked content never downloads at all — which makes pages load faster, not slower. There's no in-page script doing work as you scroll.
Yes. Most ad domains double as trackers. Dropping them at the DNS layer means far less of your activity is shared with advertising and analytics networks in the first place — and we keep no logs of what was resolved.
A lighter, quieter web — on by default.
Ad Shield is included in every DinoLink plan — no extra charge, nothing to set up. Turn it on once and every app gets quieter.
