Release Focus

This release focuses on internal VPN improvements inside WhiteDNS. The built-in VPN is now more complete and stable, so users no longer need NekoBox, NVPN, or similar workaround apps to open websites and other apps. DNS and traffic routing are now handled more reliably inside WhiteDNS itself.

• Simplified the main Connect screen
• Added easier selection for server, Resolver, and advanced settings profiles
• Added advanced settings profiles
• Users can now save multiple advanced settings profiles and switch between them
• Added quick reset to default advanced settings

• Debug builds can now be installed next to the main app for easier testing

WhiteDNS 1.1.0

Highlights

• Fixed an issue where users could appear connected and see data usage, but websites and apps would not open.
• WhiteDNS now verifies the tunnel after startup and reports whether the connection is actually usable.
• New connections are rejected when the tunnel is unhealthy, the session is not ready, no active resolver is available, or tunnel responses stop arriving, instead of letting traffic hang silently.
• Faster VPN/Proxy startup: WhiteDNS can start once enough valid resolver paths are found with a safe MTU.
• Resolver and MTU scanning now continues in the background after startup, allowing additional healthy resolver paths to be added while the VPN/Proxy is already active.
• Android Quick Settings tile for starting/stopping WhiteDNS.
• Disconnect action in VPN and Proxy notifications.
• stormdns:// profile import support.
• QR code preview for exported profile links.
• Connection verification status in the app.

• Default resolver port :53 is normalized automatically.
• Invalid resolver entries are shown before connecting.
• Split Tunnel and advanced settings UI have been cleaned up.
• Core Runtime
• Rebuilt StormDNS native libraries for all supported Android architectures.
• Improved tunnel startup reliability.
• Added stream admission checks to avoid accepting new traffic when the tunnel is not healthy.
