    This just, isn’t true? You can just download the Ad Block Plus Safari extension, just like you can on a desktop/laptop machine. You could even add a user script manager to block ads yourself if you’re so inclined. This has been in iOS for years, at least 4.

        You can also use the system-wide ad blockers that function via iOS’s built in VPN functionality. That’s how Android does it too.

          I always found the VPN solution felt really heavy. I remember on Android you could at least also have hostfile and DNS blocking too… But maybe that was only because I was on a rooted device?

            You’ve been able to use DNS-based solutions on iOS basically forever. I don’t really like them because they can be more technical than the average user is likely to jive with (they tend to cause a lot of issues browsing the web normally in my experience), but it’s pretty much always been around.
