The only reason I root my phone any more is for an adblocker. Which the iPhone conveniently has built in... It will probably be my next phone.

- nfriedly 9y agoYea, I use Firefox + uBlock Origin on Android, which doesn't require root, so I'm covered there either way. (Annoyingly, the regular Firefox on iOS doesn't yet support adblocking, but I think that will be changing soon.)
- plopz 9y agoBrowsers on iOS are just wrappers around safari. Apple doesn't allow 3rd party browser engines. So you will never see feature parity on iOS.
- nfriedly 9y agoYea, I know; and to make matters worse, there's no way to apply Safari content blockers to other browsers on iOS. But, Firefox Focus has a built-in adblocking and I believe that feature will come to regular iOS Firefox sometime soon.
