Pi-Hole + VPN and you can stop mobile ads as well. (You connect your phone to your VPN, whose traffic passes through your Pi-Hole)
Ublock Origin also works on Firefox mobile for Android, but that only works inside the browser.
You need the Pi-Hole network-level blocking to block ads in apps.
AdAway (F-Droid) will do the same but on-device (so it works everywhere), and if you're rooted it'll do it without the VPN by directly updating the hosts file.
