- lotsofpulp 6y agoIf ad blocking is all you’re looking for, I can’t remember the last time I saw an ad in Safari iOS with Firefox focus content blocker, or Wipr content blocker. I don’t notice any difference between Firefox or Chrome + ublock origin and Safari + Wipr/Firefox Focus.
- satysin 6y agoI was much like you but I can say that AdGuard for Safari on iOS is pretty decent. Sure it isn't as flexible as Firefox+uBO on Android but it does a fine job at blocking ads and doesn't require any tweaking. The biggest benefit is that as every web view on iOS is Safari it means you get content blocking in all apps that use a web view (providing they don't disable it which I'm sure some do but I don't know of any that actually do it). E.g. in the third-party reddit app Apollo any website you load within the app also has all ads blocked.
