This app uses the Device Administrator permission.
This is in no way required any only used to prevent uninstallation if wanted by the user. No system settings are modified.
This app uses the VpnService. Usage of the VpnService is required to change the DNS servers for all types of networks (otherwise it would work for Wifi only), as well as offer advanced security features. No actual VPN connection is established and no data leaves the device via VPN.
-----------------------------
Whilst it is fairly easy to adjust the DNS servers used by your device when using wifi, android offers no option to change the used DNS servers when using a mobile connection (2G/3G/4G etc.).
This App creates a VPN connection locally (No data leaves your phone using this VPN connection) to use your configured DNS servers on both wifi and mobile networks without needing root permissions.
Both Ipv4 and Ipv6 are usable, a feature which isn't supported on many phones (Even Android doesn't offer IPv6 DNS configuration in your wifi settings).
