## What it is
A Magisk/KernelSU/APatch module that runs AdGuardHome on rooted Android devices, providing a local DNS server that blocks ads, malware, and trackers. It avoids VPN-based ad blocking overhead and includes a web dashboard at 127.0.0.1:3000 with configurable upstream DNS and custom rules.

## Use cases
- block ads on android without a vpn
- run adguardhome on a rooted phone
- set up a local dns server on android
- filter malware and trackers system-wide on android
- use ad blocking alongside proxy apps like neko or clash
- manage dns upstreams and custom blocking rules from a web dashboard

## When to choose
- you have a rooted Android device with Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch
- you want lightweight, battery-friendly ad blocking without VPN overhead
- you want a full AdGuardHome instance with dashboard and custom rules on your phone
- you already run proxy modules and want DNS-level filtering to coexist with them

## When to avoid
- your device is not rooted
- you prefer a no-root ad-blocking app or VPN-based solution
- you need ad blocking on non-Android platforms
- you want a managed cloud DNS service instead of a local server
