Doesn’t that require root? Or am I getting it confused with another solution with “ad” in the title? :/
The one you are thinking is Adaway which makes changes to the system host file.
AdGuard creates a local VPN connection and lets all traffic run through that blocking based on filters. Your VPN slot is taken up here.
NextDNS just changes your phone DNS to its servers and blocks based on filters. Here, your VPN slot is essentially free for use with actual VPN apps.
Oof, yeah, that wouldn’t work for me anyway since I currently use a VPN. Lol.
Thanks for clearing it up though! :)
That sounds promising! :D
What address should I type in the settings to use NextDNS dns?
