I use AdGuard both on my Android phone and iPad. Not quite as good on the iPad because Apple doesn't make it easy, but definitely makes a huge difference. For me, $30 a year is worth it and you can use it on 3 devices. I got sick of the ads in apps that were downright disturbing in some cases and reporting them didn't do a whole lot. Browser extensions can do a lot more to tidy up the experience, but I will take what I can get.

You can pay a lifetime licence for 10$ https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/adguard-pro-adblock/id1126386264?l=en-GB
I ended up getting it from them directly. I am on Android 90% of the time and don't pay for the license from the Apple store. No idea if that one is a single device or the same as the multi-device. I tend to not do things from the Apple store as I don't have an iPhone and they seem to want or assume you have one. Just like I can never use their watch (not that I want one).
Why are you paying per year? You can get lifetime adguard licenses for cheap from stack social.
