2017. What Android Ad blocker? (No Root)

[GoodEnough]

I use Chrome.
I do not root. (No idea what that is)

Adguard.

Don't think there's a better alternative for a non-rooted device right now. I use it and haven't seen an ad in ages.

Adguard doesn't work on Chrome.

DNS66 seems like a "niche" product.
Not in Google Play since it messes with Google's business model?

I don't know. I don't use google play. I'm sure an ad company(google) isn't happy about programs that block ads though.

Samsung Browser Beta and Adblock for Samsung Browser.

<Expletive deleted>, I fell into the trap of a GoodEnough troll thread again!

I use Chrome, as stated in the OP
I am going to try "Block This"

Since when? Granted I haven't had an Android phone as my daily driver in a while, but when I last did I used Adguard with Chrome all the time.

This one?

Adguard Content Blocker is an app that will block all ads only in Yandex Browser and Samsung Internet browser without requiring you to root your device. Adguard Content Blocker doesn't blockads in any other apps.

Or is this a hidden feature that Google hasn't noticed yet?

No this is the adguard some of us are talking about ~ Adguard for Android
It's not free but does feature in a lot of giveaways, there's also this as an alternative ~ Adguard DNS (beta)

Well no wonder why i said it didn't work with Chrome. Nobody linked it and i found the one that Viper GTS found as well. Thanks for the correct link R0H1T!

The other side of the coin without rooting is to install Firefox and get the extension uBlock Origin to block all ads. I prefer Firefox over Chrome due to the extension called Phony as well. This lets you block all ads in desktop mode without root. I recommend Firefox for its ability to block ads and play YouTube videos while minimized.

I do recommend rooting and using AdAway however as that seems to block all ads including those in the Pandora and Youtube app. Rooting is safe and easy as long as your bootloader is unlocked and you follow the directions for your phone.
