AFAIK, ads can only be blocked in Safari on iOS. I have Adguard on my iPhone, but it only works in Safari – not Firefox, which is the browser I use. So that's very annoying.

Firefox has an additional app called Firefox Focus which installs a content blocker for both Safari and Firefox.
Also for Safari, Magic Lasso AdBlocker does a very good job.

Edge browser on iOS has an option to make use of content blockers in the same way that Safari does. Last I checked Chrome doesn’t.
I’m surprised to hear that Firefox doesn’t have the option to do so.
I don’t know if it’s just muscle memory, but Safari on iOS is still my browser of choice due to the way you open and close tabs in it.
