Description
DNS Forge encrypts every DNS query on your iPhone, stopping your ISP, carrier, and network admin from seeing what you look up.
No VPN required. No monthly fees. One tap to activate.
PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
Every site you visit starts with a DNS query. Normally, those queries leave your device in plain text, fully visible to whoever runs your network. DNS Forge routes them over HTTPS or TLS so your browsing stays private.
6 TRUSTED PROVIDERS
Six privacy-focused resolvers, pre-configured and ready:
Cloudflare: Fast, no-log DNS
Cloudflare Family: Blocks malware and adult content
AdGuard DNS: Blocks ads and trackers at the DNS level
AdGuard Family: Adds parental controls and Safe Search
Mullvad DNS: From the makers of Mullvad VPN, zero logs
Quad9: Blocks malicious domains, non-profit operated
Or add your own — NextDNS, ControlD, or any DoH or DoT endpoint, including self-hosted resolvers.
10 DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS
A full network toolkit, built in:
DNS Resolver Test: Confirm your resolver is active
Hijack Detector: 5-step canary check for MITM and hijacking
Benchmark: Real round-trip latency, ranked fastest to slowest
DNS Lookup: Query any domain, any record type
My IP: Public IP address and geolocation
Reverse DNS: Host lookup for any IP address
WHOIS / RDAP: Domain registration and ownership data
Domain Certificate: TLS certificate details for any site
Cert Inspector: Verify your resolver's own TLS certificate chain
HTTP Headers: Inspect response headers for any URL
SMART NETWORK RULES
Apply encrypted DNS exactly where you want it - always on, Wi-Fi only, cellular only, or specific SSIDs. Exclude trusted home or work networks. Rules take effect instantly.
ICLOUD SYNC
Custom DNS profiles sync automatically across all your devices.
WIDGET + SHORTCUTS
See your active resolver and whether DNS is currently applied on your home screen or lock screen. Build automations in the Shortcuts app to change resolvers by network, time, or any trigger.
DNS Forge uses Apple's Network Extension framework to apply DNS settings at the OS level. Your queries go directly to your chosen resolver. DNS Forge never sees them.
