Open Source Mobile Operating Systems DNS Software

NextDNS protects you from all kinds of security threats, blocks ads and trackers on websites and in apps and provides a safe and supervised Internet for kids, on all devices and on all networks. Determine your threat model and fine-tune your security strategy by enabling 10+ different types of protections. Use the most trusted threat intelligence feeds containing millions of malicious domains, all updated in real-time. Go beyond the domain, we analyze DNS questions and answers on-the-fly (in a matter of nanoseconds) in order to detect and block malicious behavior. With usually only a few hours between domain registration and the start of an attack, our threat intelligence system is built to catch malicious domains earlier than classic security solutions. Block ads and trackers on websites and in apps, including the most devious ones. Use the most popular ads & trackers blocklists, millions of domains all updated in real-time.

No root required Android DNS modifier and Hosts/DNSMasq resolver.

MasterDnsVPN is a research-oriented DNS tunneling VPN project that carries TCP traffic through DNS queries and responses. It is designed for restrictive network environments where DNS may remain available even when other connection methods are limited. The project focuses on stability, speed, and compatibility across different resolver behaviors. It uses a custom protocol with ARQ, low overhead, resolver balancing, and multipath behavior to improve performance under packet loss. MasterDnsVPN also includes client and server configuration files, Docker support, and installation scripts for easier deployment. It is best understood as an experimental transport system for DNS-based tunneling rather than a general-purpose commercial VPN.

This is a DNS-based host blocker for Android. In the default configuration, several widely-respected host files are used to block ads, malware, and other weird stuff. On the first start, you must manually update the hosts files (using the refresh button) before the service can work correctly (issue #1); and you must also update the hosts files yourself regularly for now. Items in the hosts and DNS servers lists can be moved around and removed) of the list using standard RecyclerView interactions (long press makes the entry movable, swipe to either side removes it). For hosts, a later entry overrides a previous entry; for DNS servers, the first server is preferred. There's also no validation of input, so DNS servers that are not valid IPv4 addresses are not rejected, neither are URLs for DNS server entries (we intend to support URLs in the future, so you can point the app to a remote list of servers).

KeexyBox allows you to do parental control, block ads, limit telemetry, and browse the Internet anonymously from your home network without installing any software on your devices. It also can be used to create a public wireless access point with the captive portal. It is a software program which requires a Raspberry PI box and which is installed on Raspbian. It constitutes a cut-off point between your devices (computers, tablets, smartphones, etc.) and your router or Internet box. KeexyBox acts as a default gateway and DNS server for the devices in your home network. It thus intercepts all connections to the Internet to carry out website filtering or to activate browsing via the Tor anonymity network according to connection profiles which you have configured.
