DNSNet

About this app

DNSNet allows you to take more control over what internet traffic goes in and out of your device. You can download host files to block a set of known advertising or malicious host names and then create exemptions where you see fit.

It works by creating a lightweight VPN service that filters your internet traffic as you use your device. If you ever have trouble with connecting to a site or using an app, you can always exempt an app from filtering or create an exception for a specific host name.

Ratings and reviews

works very well, lowk hard to use but once you get it, it does the job

Like adguard dns it can block many embedded ads, thank you.

To clarify for the dev: the problem isn't with the app itself, but rather the update process through the Play store. Every time a new update automatically installs through Play, the VPN gets disabled because the app has to be shut down to update. I disabled automatic updates, but now I have to make sure I don't accidentally tell it to update along with all the other updates, whereas with the F-Droid update process, I controlled all of that. It's still the same great app.
