SmokeScreen DOH (DNS Over HTTPS) Server App
❓What does this app do?
This app establishes a local dummy VPN -- it doesn't connect to a VPN server and only handles your DNS packets -- to receive DNS requests your phone is sending and forwards them to a Dns-over-https server of your choice. It offers a lot of flexibility, is easy to use and doesn't use many resources. Type #doh, #dns or #alpha to get started.
❓ Who is behind it?
The app is being developed by me, Ch4t4r (or Daniel Wolf if you'd like). I'm 21 years old and a software engineer from Germany. I study computer sciences. You might have seen my DnsChanger application: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.frostnerd.dnschanger
❓ How Do I get help?
You have multiple choices for receiving help. Either post here in our
I do answer technical questions as well.
❓ Is this App open source?
❓ Which server do you recommend?
I recommend the

The big DNS Privacy Debate at FOSDEM | PowerDNS Blog
This weekend at the excellent FOSDEM gathering there were no less than three presentations on DNS over HTTPs.
DNSCloak: System-wide tracking and advertising blocker for iOS
With DNSCloak not only encrypted DNS requests via DNSCrypt & DNS-over-HTTPS/2 (DoH) are possible, but also system-wide blocking of advertisements and trackers via filter lists.
DNSCrypt is a protocol that authenticates the communication between a DNS client and a DNS resolver. It prevents DNS spoofing. It uses signatures to ensure that the responses come from the selected DNS resolver and have not been manipulated. You can learn more about the DNSCrypt protocol at
"Our app implements the protocols DNSCrypt & DNS-over-HTTPS/2 (DoH) and allows you to protect your DNS traffic from spoofing. It overwrites your DNS settings with one or more DNSCrypt or DNS-over-HTTPS/2 (DoH) resolvers. Works for both WiFi and mobile phones."
If you have iOS, you should have a look at it and give feedback how you like it!

How to enable DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) in Firefox
The below step-by-step guide will show Firefox users how to enable the feature and not wait until Mozilla enables it
💡 Step 1:
Type about:config in the URL bar and press Enter to access Firefox's hidden configuration panel. Here users will need to enable and modify three settings.
💡 Step 2:
The first setting is network.trr.mode. This turns on DoH support. This setting supports four values:
✅ A value of 2 works best, however keep in mind that this is suspectible to downgrade attacks.
💡 Step 3:
The second setting that needs to be modified is network.trr.uri. This is the URL of the DoH-compatible DNS server where Firefox will send DoH DNS queries. By default, Firefox uses Cloudflare's DoH service located at
💡 Step 4:
The third setting is optional and you can skip this one. But if things don't work, you can use this one as a backup for Step 3. The option is called network.trr.bootstrapAddress and is an input field where users can enter the numerical IP address of a plaintext DNS resolver.
For example,
Normally, the URL entered in Step 3 should be enough, though.
Settings should apply right away, but in case they don't work, give Firefox a restart.

💡 Step 2:
The first setting is network.trr.mode. This turns on DoH support. This setting supports four values:
0 - Default value in standard Firefox installations (currently is 5, which means DoH is disabled)1 - DoH is enabled, but Firefox picks if it uses DoH or regular DNS based on which returns faster query responses2 - DoH is enabled, and regular DNS works as a backup3 - DoH is enabled, and regular DNS is disabled5 - DoH is disabled✅ A value of 2 works best, however keep in mind that this is suspectible to downgrade attacks.
💡 Step 3:
The second setting that needs to be modified is network.trr.uri. This is the URL of the DoH-compatible DNS server where Firefox will send DoH DNS queries. By default, Firefox uses Cloudflare's DoH service located at
https://mozilla.cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query. However, users can use their own DoH server URL. They can select one from the many available servers, from this list, here. The reason why Mozilla uses Cloudflare in Firefox is because the companies reached an agreement following which Cloudflare would collect very little data on DoH queries coming from Firefox users.💡 Step 4:
The third setting is optional and you can skip this one. But if things don't work, you can use this one as a backup for Step 3. The option is called network.trr.bootstrapAddress and is an input field where users can enter the numerical IP address of a plaintext DNS resolver.
For example,
91.239.100.100 (uncensoreddns.org "anycast").Normally, the URL entered in Step 3 should be enough, though.
Settings should apply right away, but in case they don't work, give Firefox a restart.
