Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to feed AsyncWiFiManager an mDNS server rather than a DNS server so that I can name the host to make it easier to connect to out of the box for a user. Eg. Using http://esp32, instead of http://192.168.4.1.

Thanks!

You can still enable mDNS before starting the AsyncWiFiManager, and I believe it will just work.

The DNS server used by the wifi manager is to handle automatic redirects when in captive portal mode, so your phone will automatically redirect you. It's unrelated to finding the device when already connected.
