How to disable pop ups on your Android Smartphone browser

When you are browsing the internet on your Android smartphone, there are certain websites that employ the use of pop-ups for various reasons. Sometimes, these pop-ups can be simple login screens. Banking websites employ pop-ups for OTP-related business, while some pop-ups redirect you to a different section of a particular website.

The problem with pop-ups is that some malicious websites infect these pop-ups with malware, and the end result is these pop-ups keep showing up even after you quit the browser. Now, it is very difficult to filter malicious websites from clean ones, so the better solution is to disable pop-ups entirely on your smartphone browser.

The procedure is very simple and this is how you can do it. We will be demonstrating this on the Chrome browser, but the process is more or less the same on most other Android browsers.

Tap to open the Chrome browser on your Android smartphone.
