* Supports IN/CH/HS query class
* Set question flags
* DNSSEC validation
* experimental DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS support
* Question / response history
* Query bookmarks
* IDNA support

Ratings and reviews

Gets the job done!! Wish the UI was a bit cleaner and I think some default public servers would save me from having to type one in. But if you need to test DNS from your phone this is the way.

Best DNS diagnostic tool when on the go

Great tool!
