I'm assuming you're referring to "AdBlock", published to the app store by FutureMind. If so, yes it is legit. Adblocking apps on iOS use either a DNS setting or a local VPN in order to filter your internet connections to block the URLs and IPs of known ad networks. I would personally recommend Adguard. They also provide a Safari extension.
