It’s okay, but I’d personally recommend NextDNS more. Quad9 is also good, but more basic.
I use NextDNS, which others have mentioned here.
But Mullvad also has public DNS (DoH and DoT only).
Use NextDNS with this guide:

Haven’t had anything broken :)
Check out nextdns or quad9. Though, on mobile, I would look into using a vpn like mullvad or protonvpn, they have malware and ad blocking built in too. I prefer this method because I use school wifi a lot and they force their google dns on the phone so I can’t use nextdns or quad9, vpn will get around that and filter your traffic.
It’s just a dns server. You need to use Firefox with its tracking protection and plugins like ublock origin.
Or you can use a dns based ad blocker like pihole so all your devices on your home network is protected.
Then if you are like me, you set up a wireguard server at home, and configures your phone to use that as an always on VPN. And then your phone is also protected by your pihole even if you are away from home and using 3g/4g traffic.

You should check out Orion. Now that’s the best browser for iOS with both Firefox/Chrome extension support.
Look into next dns maybe
It’s not an ad blocker in the way you expect something like uBlock to work, if that’s what you’re asking. Get Pihole or AdGuard on your network and use that. VPN when mobile if you’re super paranoid.
