PiDoH MapleDNS

Pidoh Encrypted MapleDNS

MapleDNS provides a private, encrypted, global DNS service for devices using DNS over HTTPS (DoH) and DNS over TLS (DoT). It is designed for privacy by blocking ads, trackers, malicious, suspicious, and most other junk that annoys with clean browsing. It does not filter adult or questionable content.

The below settings configure your device to send DNS queries via encrypted HTTPS or TLS securely to one of our private dns resolvers. That filters traffic and prevents networks, ISPs, and WiFi providers from seeing or modifying the domains your device looks up.

Configure on iOS / iPadOS / MacOS

Open this page (in Safari) on your device and tap the button below.
Download Apple Device Profile

iOS/iPadOS:
Go to Settings → General → VPN & Device Management
to install and activate the profile. You may need to hit install several times.

MacOS:
Open .mobileconfig → System Settings → Privacy & Security → Profiles → Install

Windows 11 supports DNS over HTTPS (DoH) natively. Follow these steps to use MapleDNS securely on your PC.

  2. Select Advanced Network Settings.
  3. Select the adapter you wish to modify, usually Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
  4. Select View additional properties.
  5. Under DNS server assignment, click Edit.

    • Alternate DNS: 77.42.22.181
  9. For each DNS entry, set DNS over HTTPS to On (Manual template).
  10. Enter the following DNS over HTTPS template URL:
    https://pidoh.mapledns.net/dns-query
  11. Leave the fallback to plaintext off.
  12. Click Save.

Configure on Android

Modern Android devices (Android 9 and newer) support encrypted DNS using Private DNS (DNS over TLS). MapleDNS can be used securely with this feature.

  1. Open Settings on your Android phone.
  2. Go to Network & Internet (or Connections on Samsung devices).
  3. Tap Private DNS.
  4. Select Private DNS provider hostname.
  5. Enter the hostname below:
    pidoh.mapledns.net

Home Networks

Configure your home router to use MapleDNS via traditional Do53. Traffic for all devices in your home will be filtered but lookups won't be encrypted. However, if you don't trust your home network, you have bigger problems.

  1. Open DNS Settings in your router config.
  2. Set the DNS servers as follows:
    • Preferred DNS: 188.245.192.196
    • Alternate DNS: 77.42.22.181
  3. Save DNS Settings and enjoy filtered web browsing.
