It actually works on Marshmallow. Combined with DNSCrypt and a responsive developer it doesn't get any better than this. Well worth every penny. Buy with no regrets.

Just to be clear: NEEDS ROOT.First of all some considerations before going on: • the app needs a rooted device • support of DNS on non standard ports is OK • if you find something which seems broken, please contact us ([email protected]) before posting a negative feedback.

Great app. Excellent user interface. Covers all possible options.
Well designed app with useful features however despite status logs reporting successful DNS switching, it doesn't work on my phone running LineageOS 14.1
Best DNS changer out there.
It was a 5-star app, up until last night. I updated to the May OTA on Pixel 2 and updated Magisk to 16.4 and it's not working anymore. PLEASE fix it ASAP! Thanks.
Great app, doesn't work with Android P currently though.
This is a great app which I've been using for quite some time. It only recently stopped working. I have sent emails to the developer without a response but hopefully he will make it compatible with my pixel 2 XL running 8.1 and the latest version of magisk 16.4.
