According to research I've been doing Google's Chrome browser on my Galaxy 6 won't support these types of add-ons. On my PC I installed Firefox and the popular Ad-block add-on and life's been great.

Do I really have to install Firefox and a ad-blocker again on the phone ? I expected this from Microsoft but not from Google. There are android ad-blockers browsers but heck if I have to install a browser to have ad-block included I might as well install Firefox right ?

I thing it does ...:

I'm pretty sure Chrome for Android does no support Ad Blockers, including third-party Ad Blocker support. You'll need to use another browser which offers compatibility, or built in solution(s).

Greetings,

If you want an ad blocking apk., then this is the one you want. It's free, open source, and no subscription. Works globally, and uses the local VPN on the phone. Read the whole page so you can understand how it works, but it is similar to Disconnect and Adgaurd. Also, xda developers website forums has a few threads. Here is the home page:
