Private DNS Toggle

Manjo Star

About this app

⚠️ Important: Technical Requirement
Because Android restricts access to secure system settings, this app requires ADB permissions to function. This is a one-time setup using a computer.

Take total control of your Android Private DNS with a single tap.

Manually digging through system settings to switch your DNS is a hassle. This app brings the power of Private DNS directly to your fingertips, allowing you to switch between "Off," "Automatic," or your "Provider Hostname" instantly.

Whether you're switching to AdGuard for an ad-free experience, Cloudflare for speed, or NextDNS for security, this tool makes it seamless.

Key Features
Quick Settings Tile: Add a toggle to your notification shade for the fastest access possible.

Home Screen Widget: A highly customizable widget that fits your aesthetic while providing one-tap switching.

Multiple Modes: Support for all Android Private DNS states (Off, Auto, and Private Hostname).

Battery Efficient: Minimalist design with zero background drain.

Why use this?
Privacy on Demand: Quickly enable encrypted DNS when joining public Wi-Fi.

Ad-Blocking: Toggle your favorite ad-blocking DNS on or off without diving into menus.

Testing: Perfect for developers who need to test apps across different DNS configurations.

The command you will need to run via ADB is:
adb shell pm grant com.manjo.star.privatednstoggle android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS


No Root Required. Clear instructions on how to grant these permissions are included within the app.
