Android DNS over TLS Setup

Overview

Setup DNS over TLS on an Android device with Private DNS Mode.

Configure Android to encrypt DNS queries by configuring a Private DNS Mode in settings. This will prevent the device from using the DNS server defined by the local network or ISP, and will prevent third-party DNS filtering and monitoring.
