I'm talking full phone and blocking. Not just browser.

Edit: So many options! Thanks guys I'll go through them all and see what one I think will work best for me. I appreciate it.

How much battery do you think this consumes? I've always thought an always on VPN set up but never tried it as I assumed it would drain the battery too quickly.

The battery consumption is negligible. I use Invisible Pro with so many different types of blocks and circumventions that it's almost ridiculous, and it runs at about a 3% in 24 hours. Invisible Pro has to be way up on the battery sucking scale for similar products.

1-2% with always on VPN. My kernel is very old (3.18) and it doesn't have wireguard kernel module.
