Yeah, I've had similar problems with ad-blockers for iOS, but they do exist.

From what I've heard people install browsers with ad-blockers pre-configured to get around Apple's limitations?

I just wanted uBlock Origin that I already know and like.

It's a shame Google doesn't do extensions for Chrome on Android.

That's one possibility, but you can also download apps that block ads across all apps. I'm not sure how they work.
