One significant advantage is that it can be run in parallel with a VPN. This mode requires root access. +:::note + +Please note that DNS filtering will still be active in *Automatic proxy* routing mode, and your device may not be able to filter DNS requests from specific apps. In *VPN* routing mode, apps are excluded from the local VPN by system means. Therefore, the system resolver sees which apps are included in the VPN and which are not. It either allows them into the local VPN or lets them bypass it. However, DNS requests come from the system resolver, not the application. In *Automatic proxy* mode, it is only possible to exclude traffic from applications, not their DNS queries, because AdGuard sees them as system queries. + +::: + - *Manual proxy* involves setting up a proxy server on a specific port, which can then be configured in Wi-Fi settings. This mode requires root access for Android 10 and above. ## License
