Indeed, that is just an ad blocker. I looked at their github and it hasn't been updated in 7 years.

For good basic ad blocking you might want to try something like https://controld.com/free-dns which works well. No app required, just set it in your DNS on Android.

If you want more finetuning look at the app https://www.rethinkdns.com/

For bypassing pay walls you want something like Cromite (Chromium) or better Firefox, or a privacy fork like Mull.
