If you have Android, the easiest way to run uBlock Origin is to install it for mobile Firefox.

  Precisely. On iOS, I've recently been enjoying Hyperweb, which you can add some of uBlock Origin's blocklists to. My experience so far has been great, though I'm aware that their blocking is probably based on Safari's neutered "content blocker" API so it isn't quite as fast or efficient.

    I've been very happy with the free tier of Lockdown Privacy, which blocks ads in every app, not only Safari. It creates a dummy VPN which can filter. Not as powerful as uBlock Origin, but it blocks in-app ads too.

      Ah, not an option for me since I already use a VPN to access services on my home network like my pi hole. I tried Lockdown a while back, and I do remember it worked pretty darn well. But my pi hole works great, too, as far as DNS-level blocking is concerned. And it's nice to know that my network traffic is safe from my mobile provider :)

  Yes, unfortunately it won't help you if you use any apps that display arbitrary websites in the system webview. E.g. a reddit client.

    If you set it as the default browser, well-behaving apps that use Chrome Custom Tabs will use firefox in these situations.
