Advanced Security DJPanda065's Galaxy A71 5G Config

[DJ Panda]

Hello all,

I got this phone not too long ago. Let me know of any recommendations. I'm not very worried overall of my risk to infection because of the very little I do on the device, but suggestions are welcome!

Version of Android OS?

Biometric lock settings?

Secure DNS, VPN for untrusted public Wi-Fi networks?

Android 11
Huh, cool I just tried the biometic lock. I'll use it alongside my pin.
Any recommended secure DNS? Would I put it in my WI-FI settings?

Thanks for the tips!

For adblocking you could use AdGuard DNS or for security Quad9 and if you feel like tinkering and combining NextDNS

AdGuard DNS — advertentieblokkerende DNS-server

Je eigen DNS-server voor advertentieblokkering aanmaken, die je persoonlijke gegevens beschermt, volgers blokkeert en je in staat stelt de toegang tot specifieke inhoud op internet te beheren.

Advice Request - NextDNS thoughts and experiences?

What do you folks think of NextDNS and have you gathered experiences? It is highly customazible and free up to 300,000 DNS queries/month. It looks an atractive alternative to Adguard DNS. More information: NextDNS and r/nextdns.

Hello all,

I added fingerprint login as well as enabled the AdGuard DNS shown in the mobile app. Let me know if there's anything else.

Same situation as mine with my cheapo Samsung J3 V3. A few calls, texts and streaming podcasts.
