I purchased the Adblock then added for all my devices and nothing changed

Short summary:

  1. Open the "Settings" app on your iOS device.
  2. Scroll down and locate "Safari", then tap on it.
  3. Scroll down a little and choose "Extensions".
  4. Tap on the slider next to "Adblock" to turn it on. The slider should turn green when it is enabled.
  5. Open Safari and check if the ads are blocked.

If the ads are still present:

  1. Check that content blocking is turned on for the site in Safari's settings.
  2. Right-click the address bar and select "Settings for This Website".
  3. If "Enable content blockers" is not selected, select it.
  4. Wait for Safari to reload the page.

Note: If you do not have the Adblock app installed on your device, you can download it from the App Store using this link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/adblock-for-mobile/id1036484810
