There is nothing more annoying than a slow internet connection. To increase your browsing speed, the solution is called Faster and Safer Internet. This application published by Cloudflare offers a free DNS resolution service to speed up the internet connection of your Android smartphone..
What is a DNS resolver for?
It is one of the most overlooked internet services for the general public. And yet it is essential for the proper functioning of your internet connection. The latter is also often the cause of the slowness that you may encounter when browsing the web.
For people who do not know, the DNS (Domain Name System) is a kind of directory that your smartphone will consult before opening a site. It will make the link between the domain name entered in the URL bar and the IP address of the server on which the site you wish to consult is hosted..
Simply put, when you want to access technowikis.com, your smartphone will first query a DNS server to find the site's IP address and then display it on your phone screen. By default, your web browser will use the DNS servers provided by your mobile operator.
Problem, if the DNS service of your ISP is slow, your internet connection may suffer, even if you are in 4G or 5G. Fortunately, Android offers the possibility to change the DNS resolver..
Configure the Cloudflare Faster and Safer Internet application
Cloudflare is an American company specializing in website hosting. With its experience in internet services, the company has just launched a free DNS service for the general public in the form of an application called Faster and Safer Internet.
The Cloudflare application promises to speed up your internet browsing while guaranteeing the confidentiality of your data. Few people know this, but some DNS operators follow their users' internet browsing and resell the data to companies specializing in advertising targeting.
Cloudflare's DNS service does not record the IP address of its users. Likewise, the American company undertakes never to sell the browsing history of its users. Moreover, some journalists based abroad use the application to circumvent the DNS blocking system put in place by the authorities.
