Unfortunately neither norton nor comodo are available on iPhone

But I set adguard DNS now. They seems a little slower than default DNS . But considering Google DNS are much slower ( on my phone , not on my PCs , when I have them ) , they are acceptable .

You can use Norton DNS on your phone, you just have to go into your phone's wifi settings and enter the DNS addresses - on the Norton DNS website just tell it you're configuring for PC, the servers are the exact same & it's totally allowed to use on phone/mobile devices too:)

Now adguard DNS seem as fast as the previous , even the speed test says that . Maybe it depends on the time or it was just an impression.

Anyway : in my iPhone , I see the option " search domain" ( probably there is in Windows too but i never saw it and never cared about ): could someon tell me with what it should be filled if you change DNS ?
For example now there is the name of my home adsl provider ( I never checked if it changes when I , rarely , use other WI-FIs) even if I set adguard DNS . But it worked even if I wrote adguard.com.

I ask that either in term of security or surfing speed.

I tried googleing but I did not get much

and I don't know if it is a coincidence but since adguard DNS I don't see anymore ads in iPhone app. App like ookla speedtest ( had a banner after the test ), Eurosport ( had a banner at the bottom) , wordreference( same as Eurosport ).

I have to thank DNS ?
AdGuard dns blocks ads. :) Thats a big+ for use the dns service!

Does someone know how to easily and fastly switch DNS on iPhone without typing them every time ( In the same network) ?
I wonder why you wanna switch between DNS-es?
I think there is no such app. Maybe there is if you jailbreak but I don't know

DNS Override can change DNS but via VPN connection
