I use a dns level blocker on iOS. Blocks ads in apps too.

DNS blocker blocks ads based on domain, and YouTube delivers the ads from the same domain it serves videos. Like on Pi-Hole, is not possible block YouTube ads via dns blockers, you should use an extension.

To clarify: you should use both.

(because only browsers have content blockers, most other apps don’t.)
