DNS
Network-level blocking (NextDNS)Blocks ad and tracker domains for every app on the device. Works on Wi-Fi and cellular.
EXT
In-browser filteringHides empty ad boxes, blocks first-party ads, and intercepts YouTube player data before playback.
YT
YouTube on AndroidDNS and MV3 extensions cannot reliably block YouTube video ads. Use a patched client like Morphe for that layer.
Honest limitation: YouTube video ads are served from the same domain as the video content itself. No DNS blocker or standard extension can reliably block them. We say "blocks most ads and trackers" — never "blocks all ads."
