## Requirements

- Android 11+ with an arm64-v8a device
- Xposed manager with libxposed API 101+, such as LSPosed

> [!WARNING]
> Hooking the Play Store can trip Google's device-certification or billing checks on devices without a working Play Integrity setup. This is inherent to modifying the Play Store.

## Install

1. Install APK from [Releases](https://github.com/hxreborn/playstore-adblock/releases)
2. Enable the module in your Xposed manager, scoped to Google Play Store (`com.android.vending`)
3. Force-stop the Play Store so it restarts with the module active

> [!NOTE]
> If you still see ads or an empty placeholder shelf, clear the Play Store cache, force-stop it, and relaunch. Play Store keeps serving cached ad responses until they refresh.

Find your build either in Play Store → Settings → About or with:

```
adb shell dumpsys package com.android.vending | grep -E 'versionName|versionCode'
```

Builds not listed here are usually still compatible, since the module adapts to changes between
Play Store releases. If sponsored content appears, [open an issue](https://github.com/hxreborn/playstore-adblock/issues)
and include the version name and version code.
