NextDNS APK for Android - download

NextDNS shields you from many forms of security risks, preventing ads and trackers on websites and apps while offering a protected and supervised online experience for children — across all devices and across all internet connections.

About NextDNS

Encrypt all DNS queries on all networks with the official NextDNS app for Android.

You can set your configuration ID from your NextDNS account in the Settings to bring your blocking policy to your phone and get Analytics and Logs about your traffic.

Protect your kids and control what they can access online, and when:

Block all websites containing porn, violence, piracy and more.

Enforce SafeSearch — filter explicit results on all search engines, including images and videos.

Enforce YouTube Restricted Mode — filter mature videos on YouTube and other websites.

Block specific websites, apps and games — Facebook, Tinder, Fortnite and many more.

With Recreation Time, only allow access to some websites, apps or games during specific times each day.

Block ads and trackers on websites and in apps — including the most devious ones:

Use the most popular ads & trackers blocklists — millions of domains all updated in real-time.

With Native Tracking Protection, block wide spectrum trackers that record your activity on a device at the operating system level.

Detect and block third-party trackers disguising themselves as first-party to circumvent browsers' privacy protections like ITP.

See what's happening on your devices with in-depth analytics and real-time logs:

Measure the efficiency of your security, privacy and parental control strategies.

Decide how long your logs are kept — from one hour up to two years — or disable logging completely for a no-logs experience.

Meet your data residency requirements by choosing where your logs are stored — United States, European Union, United Kingdom or Switzerland.

With Tracker Insights, see who is tracking you, how much of your web traffic they are tracking, and more.

Protect yourself against malware and phishing attacks, cryptojacking and more:

Determine your threat model and fine-tune your security strategy by enabling 10+ different types of protections.

Use the most trusted threat intelligence feeds containing millions of malicious domains — all updated in real-time.

Go beyond the domain — we analyze DNS questions and answers on-the-fly (in a matter of nanoseconds) in order to detect and block malicious behavior.

With usually only a few hours between domain registration and the start of an attack, our threat intelligence system is built to catch malicious domains earlier than classic security solutions.
