How to configure Adblock Plus on Android to work with PhotoSync?


If you are using the Adblock Plus browser extension in Android to remove unwanted advertisements you will experience a problem with PhotoSync which will no longer be able to send photos/videos from your Android device to another target. The transfer will start and then hang during the transfer of the first file. This has to do with the proxy that Adblock Plus is using to re-route all web transfer to filter out any ads. Since PhotoSync is using a web based transfer too for its connections, Adblock Plus will try to tamper with the PhotoSync transfers which causes the app to hang.

You need to disable the Adblock Plus proxy in order to get PhotoSync to work. For more information on how to configure the Adblock Plus proxy, please refer to the Adblock Plus documentation at https://adblockplus.org/en/android-config#proxy.
