DNS Toggle is a small Android app that allows you to easily toggle and automate your phone's Private DNS through the Quick Settings panel.**IMPORTANT:** _To modify Private DNS system settings, this app requires the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission. You must either have a rooted device, use Shizuku, or manually grant it via ADB:_ adb shell pm grant com.ericlowry.dnstoggle android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS**Features** - **Quick Settings Tile**: Toggle Private DNS on/off directly from the Quick Settings panel. - **Custom DNS Providers**: Define one or more preferred hostnames (e.g., dns.nextdns.io) and seamlessly switch between them. - **Wi-Fi Filtering**: Automatically disable Private DNS when connected to specific Wi-Fi networks. - **Automatic Blocking**: Automatically blacklists the current Wi-Fi SSID when Private DNS causes connectivity issues. - **VPN Override**: Automatically enforce a specific DNS hostname or disable Private DNS entirely whenever a VPN is active on your device. - **Backup & Restore**: Export and import your configuration via password-encrypted files. - **Dynamic Tile Labeling**: Rename the Quick Settings tile. - **Hide App Icon**: Keep your home screen clean while maintaining access via the Quick Settings tile. **Privacy & Permissions** - No tracking, no ads, and no data collection. - Location permissions are optional, and only used to identify Wi-Fi network names for the SSID Filter feature. They are never used to track your physical location.
