You can use something like Blokada or AdGuard. There are others as well. I believe they all mostly work one of 2 ways:

1. Intercept DNS requests to filter out requests to certain domains

2. Provide an ad and tracking blocking VPN service.

Both of these approaches can work device-wide and do not require root access to your device.

BTW I'm listing these apps as examples but I don't know them well enough to specifically recommend either of them.
