After Blokada was removed from the Play Store for [the second time](https://community.blokada.org/t/blokada-slim-is-banned-from-the-play-store-again/24704/6) in the same month and after we managed to get it listed back the last time, we decided that there is no benefit of relisting it anymore, and that’s for the following reasons:

- Blokada Slim was the cut-down version of Blokada 5, and because of their policy, we could never publish the full version of Blokada there and the only way to get all the features was to escape it by downloading the Blokada 5 apk.

- Now with [Blokada 6 (Cloud)](https://community.blokada.org/t/what-is-blokada-cloud/16958/36) being available on the Play Store, it is a faster and more reliable option compared to Blokada 5, and the cloud filtering solution has addressed Google’s worries. Blokada now does not break any terms of service of Google and will be **the new official app for the Google Play Store** and our recommended one.

**Blokada v6.2:**

The v6.1 was all about solving the connectivity issues encountered with Blokada and we have received no reports of Blokada causing such issues since then.

Now with the v6.2 release, we introduced new improvements to the connectivity detection and retry, and added some more bug fixes along with updated translations and blocklists.

**Blokada 5:**

There were many comments claiming that Blokada will be fully paid and that Blokada 5 will be removed. Blokada 5 will always be [available on our website](https://blokada.org/#download), will always be free and we will always keep getting updated.

To sum it up, now **there are two main versions** of Blokada:

**Blokada 6: The Official App** (_latest version v6.2_): this is the paid version and can only be used with a one-year subscription (of roughly 1.7$ a month and free trial period of 7 days), it can only be installed through Google Play

**Blokada 5** : this is the free version of Blokada and it requires no subscription, it is only available on [blokada.org](http://blokada.org)
