    Input your preferred DNS values, or pick from a list of popular, pre-packed DNS services. If you have special servers in mind, just plug them in.

  • Automatic DNS Switching
    Set the app to change your DNS every time you connect to a specific Wi-Fi network or when your data connection kicks in. Want to limit changes to just certain networks? Use the SSID filter to only apply settings where you want.

  • Resource-Friendly
    This isn’t a background-hogging service; Override DNS manages the job with almost no impact on your device’s memory or CPU.

  • Disable Notifications (If You Want)
    Notifications will keep you updated that changes are active—but you’re free to switch these off if low-key is your style.

  • DNS Sync for All Connections
    It handles syncing for both mobile and Wi-Fi DNS from a single place, keeping things tidy.

  • Flushes DNS Automatically
    No need to restart your device after making a change—Override DNS flushes the DNS cache for you.
