How do I block pop-up ads in Safari on my iPhone?

Pop-up ads open new tabs in Safari on my iPhone.

I have Block Pop-ups and Fraudulent Website Warning turned on, and that is not blocking my problem.

What next?

iPhone 12

How to stop private browsing pop-up in Safari on iPhone? Whenever I bring up Safari on my phone, it has a message titled Private Browsing. Every time!!! if I tap on the X in the right corner, it still does not go away. How can I stop this pop-up from displaying each and every time. I like the private browsing. I just don’t like that the message pops up every single time. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

How can I block ads from sites on iPhone? Hello 😊 Does anyone know of a way to block ads? I see a lot of “ ads to block ads “ pop up and tons of video ads which can be extremely annoying. I have physical limitations so trying to hit that Tiny x , results in the exact opposite happening. I open it. Heck, even if I turn the screen, to make it bigger, I’ll still end up opening it. Now, I do have a “ Dino “ phone. I’m updating once I get everything off this phone. There’s a-LOT. But the software is up to date. I’ve searched for blockers in the App Store, but in this day and age, who knows what’s real, especially when it comes to reviews. Really hoping someone can help me. This is the first time I’ve used this platform. I’m excited to see how useful it will be. Thanks! [Re-Titled by Moderator]
