There is ad blocking on iOS. There are multiple apps available on the store. Pick one that uses the content filtering APIs rather than a VPN though. They’re just only functional in web views, so won’t block ads in apps or trackers etc. that aren’t on web sites.
I also run a small $5/mo VPS that’s a wireguard end point and also runs pi hole. Works pretty flawlessly and the VPN APIs in iOS are actually very good. There is a hit to battery life, as there will be with any vpn, but it’s fairly minimal.
Wireguard on iOS 24/7 works great. Better than any other type of VPN in my experience because of the UDP roaming feature. Just make sure you enable the on-demand activation.
I run WG on iOS 24/7 without issue. The tunnel uses Pihole on my home network so I have the same adblocking when mobile as while home.
edit: just saw you were using a 3rd party VPN. Not sure what you’d do for adblock but that’s not really a WG issue
I‘ll use WireGuard 24/7 on foreign WiFis and mobile network. For Adblocking I have setup a pihole as dns on the wireguard Server and use this as default DNS for all request. Blocks most ads on the internet. Only video ads on YouTube and twitch still run.
Best solution… just get WireGuard ios and edit the DNS in the finding settings of your VPNs profile to point to Adguard’s adblocking DNS: 176.103.130.130…
**2 birds 1 stone **

How did you set up WireGuard & Pihole together and get it working? I am currently looking into doing the same setup for myself, but any pointers before starting are greatly appreciated.
This guide works well https://www.reddit.com/r/pihole/comments/bl4ka8/guide_pihole_on_the_go_with_wireguard/. There are 100s of similar guides on getting started if you search for the two names. I like the docker version of pihole as it makes it easy to update and keeps it isolated. Wireguard as docker would be a little more work due to configuring the keys.
I also use Cloudflare’s DNS over HTTPS service (cloudflared). I configured both to run as separate dockers using docker compose https://github.com/jbencina/vpn/blob/master/pi-hole/docker-compose.yaml
I think the easiest would be to set DNS in Wireguard config to a blocking service. I do similar with my daughters iPhone while she’s off the home network and on wireguard by setting her WG DNS to OpenDNS porn blockers.

Thank you! I was hoping for a recommendation to a good guide. This should help!
