It seems these days people are spending more time on their mobile devices rather than their computers, leading many to wonder how to block ads on iPhones as they’re bombarded with countless popups, banners and targeted ads.

How ad blocking on iPhone works
When looking up how to block ads on iPhone, most people are hoping to find information on blocking ads within individual social networking apps such as the Facebook or YouTube apps. Unfortunately, ad blocking on mobile devices does not work this way as it could lead to potential security issues within such apps. That’s why our suggestion is to use an extension that lets you block ads on Safari where you can then easily visit your favorite social networking sites like Facebook or YouTube via the Safari mobile browser app.
Annoying ads aren’t the only reason to use an ad blocker on iPhone. Adblock Plus for Safari also helps increase your device’s security, protecting you from viruses and malware that can hide behind ads. No ads also means fewer data to download, which saves your internet data and battery charge.
Adblock Plus for Safari is a great option for ad blocking on iPhone, and it’s totally free! Download it now so you can watch those entertaining videos, read the latest news, and scroll through your social media accounts on your phone with more security and without annoying disruptions!
