Nothing new there.
I use Minireview to get game recommendations to bypass searching through the play store

I use Aurora store with Google play sign in. So i've never noticed any ads lol
I use a shortcut for "My ~~ads~~ apps" so that I don't go through the home screen when I want to get updates; sadly, it wouldn't help when searching for new apps.
I am really lately hating my android phone and the targeted ads disguised as "Article I might be interested in" in the google now section of my phone.
I'm tempted to switch to an iphone but I realize the same problems exist over there too. We need a new mobileOS....with blackjack
