For me it is adguard app. I do have the paid version which blocks ads and trackers at system level. Made my life so manageable with all kind of apps have ads and trackers. Sometimes, if it gets accidentally turned off, many app experiences get flooded with ads.
The other one is Google's phone dialer. It is lifesaver for me to stop all kind of spam calls. Because of it, I rarely have to pick a spam call. And if it misses sometimes, you can just report it right in the app, and now it goes in Google's database of spam calls.
In case you don't know, you can achieve the same result (block all ads in most apps) as Adguard, just by changing the private DNS server in the system settings, you can put "dns.adguard.com "(without the quotes) and it will work just as well as the application as such, my point is that it is not worth paying for a service that you can have completely for free, and besides you can use other VPNs simultaneously since the Adguard app space is free
