# What are DNS servers?
DNS stands for "Domain Name System". It's a naming system for computers. That's what allow you to access websites, cloud and other web services.
The server component of the "Domain Name System" is named a "DNS server".
DNS servers are an important part of the internet infrastructure because they translate human-friendly domain name into IP addresses.
# Does my computer use DNS servers?
Yes. Each time you connect to internet, request a webpage, click on a link, the browser looks for an IP address in the DNS system by contacting a DNS server.

Public DNS servers improve the speed, the stability and the security of your internet connection. In some cases, it can also help escape censorship.
# Are public DNS servers suitable for all type of devices?
Yes. Public DNS servers listed on this site can be used on any devices (tablets, phones, laptops, computers).
