I’ve been using AdGuard’s DNS resolver on my Android phone for a couple of months, and I’m pretty satisfied with it.

The idea is that it filters out ad networks at the DNS level, so there is no need to root the phone (nor to install any app). You just put dns.adguard-dns.com in your “private DNS” settings and that’s it.

Recently, though, I’ve seen a couple of people around here mentioning how Adguard is not trustworthy, or “kinda shady”. What’s your take on them? Their privacy policy seems OK to me, but I’d be interested to know more about them.

    I used to use it and I loved it. Lately it started disconnecting itself randomly, and that’s why I’ve switched to Adguard’s DNS resolver, because reconnecting manually every time was annoying.

    In any case you should try it, it’s free and maybe the problem was with my own device.
