DNS66 is an advert blocker for Android devices that's capable of blocking advertisers through hosts and DNS, by filtering the traffic more efficiently.

An efficient adblocker

Some time ago, mobile adblockers became very popular. Probably at the same time that most web ads were becoming more and more invasive, hampering our browsing experience and causing us to consume more connection and data resources. That's why these apps DNS66 appeared, capable of blacklisting advertisers, blocking them from loading and helping us gain speed and data security.

The most efficient adblocker for Android

But not all adblockers are equally efficient and that's why someone came up with DNS66, an ad blocker capable of blocking advertisers and hosts via DNS. Unlike other similar applications like AdBlock Plus, one of the most downloaded options, it doesn't work through a proxy. Also, we don't have to route our device like with AdAway.

This app sets up a VPN and redirects traffic from the DNS server through this network to filter it and only allows petitions from hosts that are not blacklisted. The latter can be configured to allow, ignore or deny.

If you download this APK to block ads, keep in mind that many webs follow all good practices when it comes to advertising and that the majority of them are funded thanks to advertising, so use common sense when it's about the blockage.
