Description
* Quick presentation
OpenDNS Updater is an extremely easy to use android app to perform dynamic IP updates on OpenDNS services.
* Presentation
OpenDns is a very famous DNS service used by a lot of people, but not everybody knows that they also provide some filtering product for individuals.
This type of service is free and can be very useful to filter websites such as porn, phishing, malware, and many other category.
The service rely on your external IP to perform filter actions.
Why an android application for a DNS service ?
As I said on the previous line, the service rely on your external IP address, so when you change access point or start using mobile data, you request will not be filtered.
Updater exist for almost Windows, Mac and Linux, but not for Android or IOS. ( https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us/articles/227988607-OpenDNS-Compatible-Dynamic-DNS-DDNS-Clients )
* Other informations
The bundled VPN Service is only required to enforce OpenDNS servers when activated. When used, only DNS queries are intercepted to then be resolved against OpenDNS. All of your internet traffic then use your internet normally without specific routing.
This is an open source project; For more information on the app and the source code, please go to android.guillaumevillena.fr.
