## What it is
DNSveil is a Windows-only secure DNS client supporting DNSCrypt, Anonymized DNSCrypt, DoH, DoT, and plain DNS over UDP/TCP, with built-in DPI bypassing via SNI fragmentation and fake SNI. It can also run local DNS/DoH servers, share connectivity via proxies, and find the fastest secure DNS servers.

## Use cases
- bypass DNS-based website blocking
- hide SNI from ISP to access blocked sites
- encrypt DNS queries with DNSCrypt or DoH
- find the fastest secure DNS servers
- run a local DoH or plain DNS server
- share secure DNS to other devices via SOCKS or HTTP proxy
- encode and decode DNSCrypt sdns:// stamps

## When to choose
- you need encrypted DNS plus SNI/DPI-based censorship bypass on Windows
- you want a GUI DNS client supporting DNSCrypt, Anonymized DNSCrypt, DoH, and DoT in one tool
- you need to share a secure DNS connection with other devices via proxy

## When to avoid
- you need a VPN that hides your IP address - DNSveil does not change your IP
- you need Linux, macOS, or mobile support - it is Windows-only
- you need a headless/CLI DNS proxy for servers
