Block ads on
your Android
Firefox + the AdOff add-on. That's the way that works.
Chrome for Android can't run extensions, so no extension-based ad blocker works there. Firefox for Android does — install Firefox, add the free AdOff extension, and you get the same blocking as on your desktop. No app, no APK.
How AdOff works on Android
Firefox for Android
Unlike Chrome, Firefox for Android supports add-ons. That's the one browser on Android where a real extension-based ad blocker can run.
Add the AdOff extension
Open Firefox's Add-ons menu, search for AdOff and add it. Two minutes, no account, nothing to sideload.
Network + cosmetic blocking
AdOff blocks ad and tracker requests at the network level and hides ad slots in the page — the same filtering as on desktop.
Video ad neutralization
The same video ad neutralization as desktop works in Firefox for Android too: pre-roll video ads are skipped with no countdown, and the player keeps working.
Which Android browser can block ads?
Only browsers that support extensions can run a real ad blocker
| Chrome for Android | Firefox for Android | Kiwi Browser | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supports extensions | ✗ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Runs AdOff | ✗ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Actively maintained | ✓ | ✓ | Limited |
| Recommended | — | ✓ | — |
Chrome for Android doesn't load browser extensions, so extension-based ad blockers can't run in it — that's a browser limitation, not an AdOff one. Firefox for Android is the reliable route; Kiwi Browser also supports Chrome extensions but is less actively maintained.
