imjaDNS vs Network Info Checker

imjaDNS puts you in charge of how your iPhone resolves names. Pick a private, encrypted DNS resolver, or filter on the device itself, or do both at once. Then find out whether it actually made any difference. SHIELD: FILTERING ON YOUR DEVICE Shield answers blocked lookups locally and forwards everything else to the resolver you have chosen. Filtering and a private resolver stop competing for the single DNS slot iOS gives an app, and work together instead. • Four built-in lists: advertising, trackers, malware and device telemetry • Your own allow and block rules. An allow always beats a block, so one exception never means turning off a whole list • A query log of recent lookups, what was blocked, what was allowed, and the counts that go with it • Matching walks parent domains, so one rule covers every subdomain CHOOSE A RESOLVER • Built-in profiles for the major privacy-focused resolvers • DNS over HTTPS and DNS over TLS • Add your own resolver if you run one • Switch per network, automatically IS IT DOWN, OR IS IT ME? • Service status answers "is it down for everyone, or just me" and tells a real outage apart from something being filtered on this device • Diagnostics check encryption, reachability and DNSSEC • The speed test measures your own network's DNS next to the public resolvers, which is the comparison that tells you whether switching is worth anything • Latency, download, upload and jitter, read against what gaming, calls and streaming actually need EVERYWHERE YOU USE IT • Widgets and a watch app that read the same live state as the app • Shortcuts and Siri through App Intents • Open straight to a tab or a profile from any of them • English, Greek and Albanian PRIVACY Shield runs on your device as a network extension. Your lookups are never sent to us, because there is no "us" to send them to: imjaDNS has no account, no analytics on your browsing and no server of its own in the path. Shield needs a real device and asks permission to add a VPN configuration. iOS requires that for any app that handles DNS itself. It carries DNS only.
