Removing ads with a third-party application on your CUBOT Manito
Some applications such as ‘Adblock Plus’, ‘AdAway’, or ‘Adblocker’ for surfing on the internet, allow you to get rid of advertisements on your CUBOT Manito. If you’re looking for ‘Adblock’, ‘ABP’ or ‘Ad Blocker’ in the Play Store of your CUBOT Manito, you will usually find only web browsers that do not allow you to block ads in applications or some of the most famous browsers.
Indeed, advertising companies are pulling a great share of their profit from mobile advertising, and so they tend not to push such blockers on your Play Store.
So you have to manually install such an ad blocker on your CUBOT Manito. Here’s how to do it below.
Prepare your CUBOT Manito to install an advertising blocker
By default, your CUBOT Manito does not allow you to install applications outside the Google Play Store.
However, you can configure it to install your ad blocker.
To do so, simply click on ‘Settings’ on the main screen of your CUBOT Manito. Then go to the ‘Security’ submenu. Then, you will need to check ‘Unknown Sources’ to allow your CUBOT Manito to install an application outside your Play Store.
Once validated, you can go to the second step below.
Install the ad blocker on your CUBOT Manito
To install the ad blocker, simply go to your favorite search engine with your web browser from your CUBOT Manito. Once there, you will be able to type ‘smartphone ad blocker’, and you will have access to a large choice of applications and download links.
You will then have to download an ‘apk’ file, corresponding to the application you want to install. We invite you to read carefully the elements on each of the download pages.
The previous step have allowed you to install ‘apk’ files on your CUBOT Manito. Simply go to the folder where the file was downloaded and follow the instructions.
Once the steps have been validated, you will normally have blocked and removed advertisements on your CUBOT Manito.
Clean up your CUBOT Manito to avoid malware and intrusive ads

Check the notation and comments of these applications before installing them.
