Discover Ads Filter

Xposed module that hides sponsored cards in Google Discover feed
New in version 1.2.0
Auto-resolve ad signatures after a Google app update (opt-in, needs root)
Redesigned About screen
Removed the filter toggle, always on now
Removes sponsored cards from the Pixel Launcher Discover feed by hooking the Google app. Uses DexKit at install time to resolve obfuscated symbols against the installed Google app build, then registers a single LSPosed hook that drops feed items whose cluster type is feedads.

Prerequisites: the Google app (com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox), and a rooted device (KernelSU, APatch or Magisk) running an Xposed framework manager such as LSPosed. The module is non-functional without both.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
