One rather effective way to get much higher (approx 99%) on iOS is to use a DNS over HTTPS provisioning profile (or app), and use a DNS server that blocks ads.

If you run your own server, you can get to 100% by turning on blocking for a couple of hosts not in standard blocklists that this test has highlighted.

The DNS setting applies to most or all apps, as far as I can see, as it's applied as a system level provisioning setting. iOS 15 gives more visibility of this in the UI, but it works in iOS 14.
