I just discovered this and it works fantastically on any old / unused android device you might have lying around, I was shocked at how easy it was, all the instructions are there, once you have it running all you need to do is set your router DNS settings to your pihole IP address and presto! Ads and trackers are gone!
On should have a look on the energy saving behavior of the device, as android tends to shutdown processes occasionally. Which is pretty bad for a DNS server IMHO
Sure it does. But you can also tell it to put some processes in a top priority list.
Yeah I’ll keep an eye on it and see how it goes, should be alright though I turned the battery optimization off
