Why do you hope you are wrong if it adds nothing new?

I hope I am wrong (or better, I hope what I read is wrong) so I can use Firefox with uBlock on my iPhone (I use Firefox on desktop).

AFAIK, you cannot install uBlock (or any add-on) on Firefox for iOS.

Sadly you're right. This is Apple's fault: they refuse to allow alternate browser engines on iOS, so iOS "Firefox" is really a Safari web view with some Firefox buttons on it. Chrome and other browsers have the same problem.
