I guess this is due to the way TrackerControl is programmed. It doesn’t really offer the level of granularity to help with tracking in web browsers.

I’m sorry!

That’s a good point, and I really don’t know! Whilst users should be able to make their own choices—also regarding browsers, the problems with blocking certain apps are not clear...

Yeah, I absolutely agree! I’ll do my best!

I checked QuickDic on two devices, Android 10 and Android 5. For me, the app works. What I found though is that the downloading isn't done by the app, but...

Please check that you don't block any system apps, or Google Chrome. Otherwise, the downloads may not function.

Hmm.. Maybe, you have to delete the app data of TrackerControl. There was a change in the blocklist functionality to Beta 13. This could be it!

This must be really annoying for you and I appreciate your patience. I’ll look into it. What Android version are you using?

At the moment, Private DNS must be turned off. Otherwise, there's no way to analyse the app connections.

I also noticed other apps that have similar problems, so thanks so raising this. I've been busy recently with releasing the app on F-Droid, so sorry for the delay.
