Is there any apps out there that can do this?
So sick of all the ads on the apps

Blocking ad's on Facebook/IG
- Thread starter umx

Unfortunately no. They appear to either be served server side, or the apps use the "home" servers as proxies for ads. I'm not sure which. Either way there doesn't seem to be a way to block the ads, even by using a third party client (which Facebook does not support and often intentionally breaks).
I miss the days where roms would just block all that stuff. well thanks for reply
Yeah, I think they changed things in response to ad blocking. That's how they make a lot of their money - other than selling your data and invading your privacy, they target you with ads. It's a revenue stream for them so it's unsurprising they'd want to protect it.
Ad blockers don't work in this regard because they only block known ad domains. This works well enough for web pages and apps that display ads from those domains, but it doesn't work when the app uses its home servers as a proxy.

Frost.apk stopped working 2 weeks ago !!! It's been unsupported for years, but was in service until now ! (facebook server must have been updated so this 3rd party app broken)
Search on XDA and all 3rd party FB app are dead !?!? (metal, LC, vanced, etc)
I found 1 post from a guy stating that re-vanced manager can patch the original facebooklite.apk, but it didn't work.
So far Opera.apk with oem adblock seem to do the trick, but not very nice to use .
Note : even ad-away can't block facebooklite ads. Very very annoying.
I'm use to see ONLY friends post and group post. That's it that's all, nothing more. No tiktok ****, or fake life hack, or robot vacuum that I dont need.

the best bet would be to try Revanced. They usually are used to patch to remove ads in YouTube, however they work in so many other apps. I use this app for Twitter to remove ads, and it works fine. I recommend giving Revanced a try. They are very likely to work for Instagram and Facebook.
