Mostly done by ad-blocking DNS server at home (or via VPN when I am away), but yeah - no ability on Apple. Also impossible to root.
I don’t do root anymore, but I would love to have this available as an option. Opens much more possibilities.

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.

That only blocks Safari, no? Whah about the rest of the apps?

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?
