App summary
"Change" DNS server on most of popular phones with Android versions (2.2+), including Kitkat, by one click.
On Kitkat (Android 4.4), changing dns server settings is not allowed by system. DNS Forwarder can work as a workaround. It does not modify system setting, just bypasses local dns server settings by forwarding dns queries to other configured server.
It works on rooted phones running Android 2.2 and above.
Features:
* Auto forward on boot
* Show/Hide service notifications
* Multiple in-built dns list and customizable dns servers

Other customized dns servers
How to use:
1) choose a DNS server from list. Also you can set up customized dns server. By default Google dns server 8.8.8.8 is configured.
2) Check "Enable Forwarder" box
DNS forwarder will start a service to serve DNS queries (UDP). To stop it, just uncheck "Enable forwarder".
Note: the trafic forwarding feature might be not supported by system on some phones. In this case dns forwarder cannot work. A failure toast will be displayed when checking "Enable forwarder".
