There are firewall apps for IOS. I use Lockdown Privacy, which is free, open source, but limited to blocking things (custom blocklists work). If you want more control, there are apps which allow it. As long as you're willing to grant the app VPN privilege, it can inspect and modify your traffic. I disagree with Apple on many things, but this critique isn't correct.
