How To Avoid MX Player Ads

To avoid ads on MX Player, you have a few options depending on whether you’re using the free version, are open to paying, or want a workaround. Here are all the practical ways:

✅ 1. Subscribe to MX Player Pro (Ad-Free Version)

MX Player Pro is a paid app available on the Play Store.
It removes all in-app ads and offers smoother playback.
One-time purchase (usually under $10).

📱 [Search “MX Player Pro” on Google Play Store or App Store]

✅ 2. Use an Offline-Only Approach

Download videos to your phone and play them offline using MX Player.
Avoid opening the app while connected to the internet.
This prevents ad loading altogether.

🛑 Works best if you don’t need to stream content.

✅ 3. Block Ads with a Private DNS or Ad Blocker (Android)

Use private DNS settings (like AdGuard DNS or NextDNS):
- Go to: Settings > Network & Internet > Private DNS
- Set to: dns.adguard.com or dns.nextdns.io/yourconfig
Or install a trusted ad blocker like:
- AdGuard
- Blokada
- Requires extra setup but can block in-app ads system-wide.

⚠️ May not block 100% of video ads, especially on streamed content.

✅ 4. Use an Alternative Video Player (For Local Files)

If you only use MX Player for offline/local files, try:
- VLC for Android/iOS (free, open-source, no ads)
- KMPlayer
- XPlayer

💡 These alternatives support most video formats with zero ads.

✅ 5. Turn Off Internet While Watching

If you’re using MX Player to watch downloaded videos, simply turn off Wi-Fi and mobile data before opening the app.

🚫 This prevents the app from showing ad banners or loading pop-ups.

⚠️ Note:

Blocking ads for free streaming content is generally discouraged by platforms and may violate terms of service.
MX Player earns revenue through ads to offer free content.
