Pi OS Lite 32Bit is installed as I have a Raspberry Pi 5 with 4 GB. I have also installed and customized my Adguard Home on it. DNS server on my router has also been customized so that every device connects to the Adguard. The problem with the whole thing is that ADs are not blocked properly on my computer & smartphone. Streaming sites such as Streamtape continue to display ads, although there are already lists for them on my Adguard home. I am now at a loss as to what could be the reason why it is not being blocked properly.

Have you renewed the DHCP offered DNS on the de The DHCP lease can be looong (Hours to Weeks) and isn't updated interactively. Many OS have the possibility to force a renew of the offer from the DHCP server (router). So check the lease time on your DHCP server (router) !

On windows the command to force a renew is ipconfig /renew
