Hi! Is there any way to set up TC to use private DNS? alternatively, is there any other tracking filtering app compatible with private DNS?

Thanks!

Use any DNS you want, the app also has nice logs, firewall, Orbot integration (if you want it), and a bunch of other stuff. It does a lot more than TC.

Rethink uses hardcoded google DNS not respecting your DNS settings for their own calls.

Please avoid RethinkDNS

I use NetGuard and port forwarding TCP and UDP from 53 to 5300 which is used by PersonalDNSFilter. In PersonalDNSFilter I can configure the DNS I want to use
