## Installation

Get the latest apk on the [releases page](https://github.com/karasevm/PrivateDNSAndroid/releases/latest) 

or from [IzzyOnDroid repo](https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/ru.karasevm.privatednstoggle).

## Automatic (Shizuku)

1. Install and start [Shizuku](https://shizuku.rikka.app/).

2. Start the app and allow Shizuku access when prompted.

## Manual

For the app to work properly you'll need to provide it permissions via ADB:

1. Get to your PC and download platform tools from google [here](https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools).

2. Extract the tools, and open terminal in the same directory ([Windows guide](https://youtu.be/6vVFmOcIADg?t=38), [macos guide](https://www.howtogeek.com/210147/how-to-open-terminal-in-the-current-os-x-finder-location/)).

3. Turn on USB Debugging on your phone (This may require different steps, for Xiaomi you also have to enable `USB Debugging (Security settings)`, but generally [this video guide](https://youtu.be/Ucs34BkfPB0?t=29) should work on most phones)

4. Connect your phone to your PC

5. Run this command in the terminal

```

./adb shell pm grant ru.karasevm.privatednstoggle android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

```

6. That's it, you should have the app installed.
