I noticed a pattern. If you want a mobile game but don’t want the ads or anything just pay for the app. And a lot of the “healthy” apps are paid for anyway
Also editing your hosts file (rooted, android), using an adblock vpn (nonroot, android/iOS) or filtering your DNS (iOS, non jailbroken) kills basically all mobile ads. Alternatively use a Pihole on your network.

TrackerControl is on F-Droid. Supports hosts file too.

The app being paid is by far no guarantee for no ads and you will likely still be tracked anyway.

It's not really about ads or tracking though
