Currently I use 1Blocker but I will switch to AdGuard. Somehow 1Blocker doesn’t work properly for me anymore
Ad Guard in Safari. When you get a site that says you are being naughty, you flip to “Show Reader” to bypass.
Then install Sink It and you’ll miss out on all the cookie prompts and bs, including Reddit asks to install app (I no longer have an account there).
Adguard on desktop seems to be working well for me, but is entirely useless on mobile for some reason
Once installed, you have to configure it in Settings > Safari > Extensions. Make sure it’s all turned on and enabled.

I use a pihole on my network with a VPN for when I’m out and about
Installed adguard based on all the good reviews here!
Control D is a great versatile DNS level ad and tracker blocker. You can also route specific services to different exit locations, so stuff like Netflix can think you’re in the US.
I use Brave browser, which has ad and tracker blocking built in.
I also have all my devices using a piHole for ad, malware, and tracker protection.
Firefox focus. It can be set as ad blocker not just as a history deleting browser. I use Firefox as my main browser on ios, but I don’t really see ads anywhere phone-wide
Another AdGuard user here. I’ve got the paid pro version that allows DNS blocking system wide via the VPN profile method but if you’re just looking for Safari only the free version is good.
Seconding AdGuard . It’s really working well for me.
For safari i use Firefox Klar and Hyperweb as Extensions.
Other than that I have a raspberry pi running WireGuard and Pi-hole, which my phone is constantly connected to. This provides extra security (as all my traffic is encrypted) and privacy. Pi-hole filters out ad and tracking domains.
I’ve been using Wipr, but the cookie notice blocking is breaking quite a few sites now
Hush does a great job blocking nags Wipr misses: https://apps.apple.com/app/hush-nag-blocker/id1544743900
Oh I own that, but haven’t used it in years. I’ll give it another go
Aha DNS Blitz. Instead of an app, you install a VPN profile. The benefit is that it protects you wherever you go regardless of the connection you’re using (home wifi, mobile data, public wifi, etc.).
Pihole on my Debian system with PiVPN WireGuard server.
Safari extensions:
Vinegar to block YouTube ads in Safari. I don’t use the app at all.
Banish to stop websites showing those annoying “open in the app” pop ups.Ad and nag free bliss.
Almost the same config but instead of pihole I use adguardhome and for extensions I also have SponsorBlock for YouTube
AdGuard on the iphone and nextdns.io for DNS is a very effective combo. I also use StopTheMadness to eliminate a lot of annoyances, especially google’s shitty amp links.
Really? I’m curious about your setup. I have AG on my phone + AdGuard Home running on a Pi which pretty much eliminates all ads.
I tried replacing those with NextDNS so I could be equally protected outside of home but I wound up flooded with ads NextDNS let through. So you’re running AdGuard and using NextDNS as your upstream?
I have the AdGuard content blocker on my phone and NextDNS set for dns. I’m using a logged in NextDNS account with a bunch of block lists enabled.
I was using pihole on my local network but some ads still got through, mainly on the NYTimes site.
Adguard plus iCloud Private Relay is hard to beat for me.
