### 4/5 — Bitte noch Einstellmöglichkeiten für verschiedene Netzwerke

*2025-10-19, version 1.6.1*

Tolle App im Ansatz und ich hoffe, sie wird noch ausgebaut im Funktionsumfang. Denn: Leider kann man bei DnsSecure nicht einstellen, dass die DNS-Umleitung nur in bestimmten Netzwerken (z.B. bei Mobilfunknetz oder fremden WLANs) aktiv wird und sich z.B. im Heim-WLAN deaktiviert (denn da regelt ein Raspi mit PiHole als AdBlocker). Das ist sehr schade und kommt hoffentlich noch in einem Update. Gerne im Funktionsumfang bei DNSCloak abgucken (leider nicht mehr im App-Store).

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2025-09-17*

With the recent inclusion of excluding domains this app has become easily 5*. Amazing job!

### 5/5 — Удобный, полезный

*2025-09-11, version 1.5.1*

Шифрует все и быстро, работает и не выключается без команды

### 5/5 — More like this!

*2025-08-31, version 1.5.1*

Great app for security & privacy!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-08-19*

Thank you to the developer for a private, minimal, and powerful tool.

### 5/5 — Wunderbares Werkzeug

*2025-08-16, version 1.5.1*

Das Blocken der Werbung über DNS Server ist eine elegante Methode. Mit DNSecure kann man routinemäßig zwischen Anbietern wechseln, ohne viel Aufwand. 
Und er funktioniert einfach zuverlässig. Auch nicht selbstverständlich. Vielen Dank.

### 5/5 — Buenísima

*2025-07-07, version 1.5.1*

La llevo usando medio año y no da problemas. Bloquea la gran mayoría de anuncios sin necesidad de quitar el wifi. Funciona muy bien.

### 5/5 — Nice secure dns app

*2025-06-26*

Nice app! I use it on both of my Mac and iOS devices. I do wish it supported DNS over QUIC as well

### 5/5 — C’est de la frappe

*2025-06-23*

Le développeur est un pure génie 😁

### 5/5 — Un must have

*2025-05-27*

Fonctionne parfaitement en Wi-Fi et même en 4g/5g. Finis les pubs avec adguard ou libredns 👍

### 5/5 — ?

*2025-05-18, version 1.5.0*

В данном приложении можно добавить черный список? Авансом ставлю 5 ⭐

### 5/5 — Does it get better on iOS?

*2025-05-17, version 1.5.0*

Coming from Android with VPN app level firewalls, this and Orbot seem like my only options that actually work like I think they should.

### 5/5 — Топ!

*2025-05-10, version 1.5.0*

Прожка реально топ! Единственная,которая реально заработала на яблоке! Проверил на софтине с рекламой которая была типа интернет утилита,сама с рекламой! В инет радио тож реклама екнулась. Важно подобрать верные настройки иначе инет не заработает. И да -в пункте ВПН в телефоне в настройках добавляется пункт dns,его выбираешь и все,в софтине тож перед этим выбрать над десять. Доволен.

### 5/5 — 感動！！

*2025-05-09, version 1.5.0*

アプリの広告をブロックできる機能を探してたらたまたま見つけて入れてみました。DNSがなにかも分からないままインストールしましたが、便利すぎた...！本当に広告が消えて、設定も簡単で、本当に感動！！！こんなに素晴らしいアプリをありがとうございます🥹🥹🙏🙏🙏

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas

*2026-08-07*

C’était l’application parfaite et malheureusement ne fonctionne pas. Le profil n’apparaît pas dans les paramètres VPN de l’iPhone.

### 1/5 — Ne change pas le DNS

*2025-09-20*

J ai suivi le tutoriel tout est parfaitement configuré et le DNS ne change pas , j ai essayé tous les serveurs de la liste et j ai toujours le DNS de mon opérateur

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-29, version 1.5.0*

Unable to activate on MacOS Sequoia 15.5 (24F74)

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE!!!

*2024-12-08*

A couple minutes if that after connecting to it my computer sent an alert that my computer had been compromised and 900+ Passwords had been stolen and who knows what else they took from my computer. I know it came from this app because I did not change anything different on on any settings that was not from this app and I did not go in to any website, I was just typing up a paper when the alert popped up… now who knows what they will take because it will take me a few days to get all my important passwords protected again as well as all my wallet keys.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2023-02-25, version 1.4.1*

This app is absolutely useless. Still seeing ads on Youtube, Instagram, Facebook and all major apps. It may have blocked 1 banner ad to be fair. Was expecting to see no more ads in app.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2022-09-27, version 1.3.0*

Stuck in a "Not Running" state - Made service active, app is open, dns is selected "use this server" enabled... still stuck in Not Running.

App crashed as well.

Monteray 12.3 - M1 Chip

### 1/5 — Unable to add any new services

*2022-01-24, version 1.2.0*

Any edits for a new entry get lost.

### 2/5 — Lacks domain rules

*2024-07-24, version 1.5.0*

While an app built in intention, would prefer Allow & Block list rules as a basic feature to make this of any sense.

In addition, may add filters like in AhaDNS or NextDNS if possible. For now, a dedicated ‘Done’ button would be appreciated so the keyboard can be collapsed.

### 3/5 — Adblock was stopped

*2026-03-27*

The app worked really great but after some time of using it, the app I’ve been using it for has detected. Now i can’t use it anymore for the all.

### 3/5 — あと一歩

*2025-04-01, version 1.5.0*

Safari、Sleipnirは広告消えましたが、 Chromeは広告消えません。なんとかなりませんか。

*2026-06-20*

Thank you for making this free without ads👍🫡

### 5/5 — Outstanding software!

*2026-05-29*

Thank you for making this free. I was changing my DNS server over and had no idea that Firefox for iPhone is hardcoded for cloudflare. I found this scrolling through a dns search on the App Store, saw the 5 star rating with over 100 reviews. I tried it, and it works, bot with and without Private Relay!! I am extremely impressed!!

### 5/5 — Best DNS changer

*2026-02-12*

Great DNS changer you have the ability to change an turned off all in a blink. Would recommend.

### 5/5 — It’s free? Download it.

Tired of ads? Just get this genuinely. All I have to say.

### 5/5 — 良い

*2025-10-22, version 1.6.1*

使用したいDNSに簡単に接続できる。有名なDNS(1.1.1.1とか)は元から用意されているし、用意されていなくてもDNSアドレスなどを手動で入力すれば簡単に接続可能。
