Removing ads with a third-party application on your Oppo AX7

Some applications such as ‘Adblock Plus’, ‘AdAway’, or ‘Adblocker’ for surfing on the internet, allow you to get rid of advertisements on your Oppo AX7. If you’re looking for ‘Adblock’, ‘ABP’ or ‘Ad Blocker’ in the Play Store of your Oppo AX7, 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 Oppo AX7. Here’s how to do it below.

By default, your Oppo AX7 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 Oppo AX7. Then go to the ‘Security’ submenu. Then, you will need to check ‘Unknown Sources’ to allow your Oppo AX7 to install an application outside your Play Store.
