DNS Server

Run your own DNS Server (Domain Name System Server) on your device! From now on you have control over all DNS requests. Set the app to automatically forward requests to another DNS Server, or set the app to use a web DNS server. You can even set rules so for the request for a specific host you can set the app to always reply with a specific IP!
Notes
- If you find a bug or have a problem please contact us by email since we cannot help you if you post it in the reviews.
- Normally DNS Servers run on port 53, but because of some limitations on Android that is not possible. So you will need to add port forwarding in your home network to access the server on port 53.
- In this version you can add one server (DNS, or Dynamic DNS Updaters), three rules and if allowed IP’s is set also only three of them. If you want to be able to add unlimited items please buy DNS Server Pro. If you buy the pro version you will support development, will be able to add unlimited items and see no advertisements!
For more servers and features have a look at our app Servers Ultimate
But we haven’t mentioned all features yet; you can even set a dynamic DNS updater! So you can always access your device from everywhere, even if the IP changed!
It also has extensive logging functionality, and you can even set the app to email you the log automatically!
