what is dns in mobile

DNS stands for Domain Name System, which is a system that translates domain names into IP addresses. Essentially, DNS turns domain names into an IP address so web browsers and apps know where to connect. DNS is used in nearly every connection to the internet. Private DNS mode is a feature that allows you to send your network data to a secure DNS address rather than the one that would otherwise most likely be controlled. Enabling Private DNS Mode on Android means your searches and other DNS queries are encrypted and safe from prying eyes. Private DNS mode allows you to manage DNS over TLS usage along with the ability to access public DNS servers. Public DNS servers offer many advantages of the DNS servers provided by your wireless carrier. Some will not log any information about how you use their servers. This means no tracking of your whereabouts online and no third-party ads using your data.
