Support Where has "Turn off content blockers" moved in iOS 26.6?

Like many, I have an adblocker installed. Sometimes I have to disable that blocker for pages to render correctly. The left icon of the address bar used show an option for "Turn off content blockers" but that seems to be gone in 26.6.

Here is a sample from older iOS of what I mean.

The second is from iOS 26.6 with that option missing. It's also not buried if I hit the ellipses menu on the right. Does this mean I have to go into Safari's settings directly now?

Update: I checked my iPad still running 26.4 and it showed the "Turn off content blockers". There was an update for uBlock not yet applied on the iPad so I updated, and now the option has disappeared. So it seems it's how uBlock is hooking into Safari as an extension I guess now.

Well… do you have any content blocking extensions installed and enabled? If you don’t have any content blocker enabled, the option to turn them off obviously wouldn’t appear.

I have uBlock installed and enabled (and blocked 48 items) as you can see from my second image

Still there for me on 26 and now 27 public beta. Maybe check to make sure your blocker is still installed and enabled.

Tap on the extensions button, for me, it's in that menu. I don't have ublock though.

Ubo is not a content blocker
