Adds popping up every few seconds

[Android Central Question]

Why are adds popping up and freezing my phone every few seconds

Do they persist in Safe Mode?

Those sound like 3rd party app pop-ups. Do you have any cleaner apps, or external weather apps, or news apps downloaded onto your phone? If so go to settings > Apps > [Downloaded App] > Uninstall.
