## Description

DNS Switch is a powerful Chrome extension that allows users to change their DNS settings without requiring root access. Compatible with both mobile data networks (2G/3G/4G) and WiFi, it unlocks region-restricted websites and enhances browsing speed. The extension supports a wide variety of DNS servers, including Google, Cloudflare, OpenDNS, AdGuard, and many others, giving users flexibility to choose preferred DNS providers.

Using a VPN tunnel exclusively for DNS queries, DNS Switch ensures that only DNS traffic is redirected while other network traffic remains unaffected. It's a user-friendly tool that supports tablets and smartphones, providing an easy way to work around country limitations and unblock restricted content seamlessly.
