      Firefox for Android, with uBlock:

      Select either of these. The left one is the Zapper and will let you tap on an element on the screen to remove it temporarily until you reload the page. The right one is the Picker and will let you create a filter that will remove that element any time you visit that page.

      I’d recommend only using the Zapper at first until you get the hang of how to target elements. If you mess up, just refresh and try again. The Picker makes permanent rules, and if you accidentally filter something you need, you’d have to go into the filter list and erase it.

      It can be a little tricky and it takes some getting used to. Websites sometimes don’t make it easy to target single elements, you have to also target the element’s wrapper, and avoid filtering needed elements. The addon interface for uBlock is also a little finicky on mobile.

      But once you get the hang of this tool, it is indespensible. You can clear any web page of any element.
