You have an iphone, so all your browsers are essentially Safari. The other features they may compete on are syncing to your desktop and stuff like that.

On android, Firefox Mobbile has uBlock Origin, whereas Browser, Chrome and any other one do not.

Anyone not using an ad blocker is out of their mind, especially on mobile; The simplest way to do that is Firefox Mobile + uBlock Origin.

How effective do you find uBlock Origin on mobile? I find that half the time elements don't get blocked. Disabling most JS using uMatrix seems to be more effective.

Very effective. Depends, of course, on the lists you select (I select most of the general and a few regional that are relevant to me) - and your tolerance to having to whitelist specific domains when things don't work. Mine is very high - and if you're a uMatrix user, it seems yours is too.

(I use uMatrix on the desktop, but only surf casually on mobile, so I find uBO sufficient).
