I wish FF would test and step through their instructions first. The instructions for Ad Blocker: " Settings > Browsing > Ad Blocker" It isn't as easy as they instruct: "How it works: Ad Blocker uses Apple’s WebKit Content Blocker technology and the EasyList filter list to determine what gets blocked. There’s no separate extension to install, and you can turn it on." Search settings unable to find Ad Blocker. Yes, FF browser is up to date.! FF expends a lot of verbiage to promote a new feature yet so slim on step by step instructions.

But this is about Firefox for iOS (iPhone). Not for desktop Firefox.

Wherever you saw this should have "Firefox for iOS" on page somewhere.

Also the mention of "Apple’s WebKit" shows this was not about Firefox for desktop or Android as they use Gecko. It is the Firefox on iOS/iPadOS that uses WebKit as the browser engine due to Apple restrictions..
