CLUSTER SETTINGS-ANDROID-DNS · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-10-01

Android DNS configuration tools

This cluster consists of five Android-focused apps for managing DNS settings, including secure recursive DNS via Quad9, toggling Private DNS from Quick Settings, and overriding hosts files without root. Their dated entries appear sporadically: one in September 2019, one in June 2023, two in 2025, and one in July 2026, indicating intermittent release activity. Traction is minimal; the top products (DNS Toggle, QuickTile Settings, and Quad9 Connect) all report zero stars, so no product stands out as a traction leader.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 8 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
