DNSimple vs Neko

DNSimple gives you control over DNS on iPhone and iPad through a local DNS tunnel. Use encrypted DNS-over-HTTPS by default, choose from Cloudflare, Google, Quad9 and AdGuard presets, or enter your own resolver. The dashboard shows the active configuration, resolver health and the last responding resolver. PRIVATE HISTORY, YOUR CHOICE Recording is optional and off by default. Keep records on your device with iOS file protection and backup exclusion, or choose memory-only history that disappears when recording stops or the tunnel ends. Choose a retention period of 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. Expired records are removed while running or when you next open the app. Switching storage clears existing history. UNDERSTAND YOUR DNS Search and filter requests by domain, resolver, query type, errors, local overrides or unencrypted transport. Inspect DNS response codes, response times and the actual responding resolver. Statistics show the retained history window, with up to 20,000 on-device records or 2,000 memory-only records. CONTROL YOUR RESOLVER - DNS-over-HTTPS with HTTPS certificate validation - Standard DNS with UDP and TCP support - Custom IPv4 and IPv6 DNS servers - Custom hosts overrides - Live recording controls and resolver health checks - Plaintext fallback disabled unless you explicitly enable it DNSimple does not require an account and has no advertising or analytics. DNS history stays on your device. Selected bootstrap servers resolve the DoH endpoint hostname; website DNS queries use HTTPS unless you enable plaintext fallback. Your selected resolver can see the queries it handles. DNSimple changes system DNS. It does not hide your IP address or encrypt other app traffic. Apps using their own DNS can bypass the tunnel and will not appear in history. When disconnected, iOS uses its normal DNS settings.

Neko is a cozy proxy client for iPhone and iPad. Point it at the subscription or nodes you already have, and it turns them into a one-tap tunnel — wrapped in an interface you will actually enjoy opening. BRING YOUR OWN CONFIGURATION Neko is a client, not a service. It does not include, sell or provide proxy servers, subscriptions or bandwidth. You supply a subscription URL, or paste node links from a provider you trust — or from a server you run yourself. THE CAT IS THE STATUS No status bars to decipher. Neko's mascot mirrors your tunnel: curled up asleep when you are disconnected, ears perked while connecting, bright-eyed and blushing once you are protected, and zooming when traffic is really flying. FEATURES • One-tap connect — tap the button, or just tap the cat • Sniff — measure real latency for every node before you commit • Auto or manual — let the fastest node be picked for you, or choose it yourself • Feeds — keep several subscriptions and switch between them instantly • Routing modes — Smart Paw (rule-based), Roam Free (global) or Stay Home (direct) • Paw Prints — a live, readable log of what the engine is doing • Sakura light and Midnight dark themes, designed to match • Purr haptics and a little meow when you connect, both optional PROTOCOLS Shadowsocks, VMess, Trojan, VLESS and Hysteria2. IMPORT FORMATS Subscription URLs returning base64-encoded link lists or plain link lists, YAML configuration files in the widely used mihomo format, and individual node links pasted straight from your clipboard. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking of any kind. Your subscriptions, nodes and settings are stored only on your device, and Neko never sees your traffic — it runs entirely on your iPhone or iPad and connects only to the servers you configure. BUILT ON A FAST, OPEN CORE Neko is powered by meow-rs, an open-source proxy engine written in Rust and distributed under the MIT licence. It is compact and efficient enough to run comfortably inside an iOS network extension. PLEASE NOTE Neko requires your own proxy configuration to be useful — it ships with no servers and no free trial of any network service. You are responsible for using it in line with the laws that apply to you and with the terms of whichever provider you choose.
