Easy to install and activate. Apps that had suddenly become virtually unusable due to forced adverts that kept freezing on my Nvidia Shield Pro have now got a new lease of life. The one-off price of £1.99 is also very reasonable (not even the price of a cup of coffee these days). TD UK is one of the most respected tech advisors around and so for him to create this app makes it a no-brainer to install if, like me, you hate having your viewing experience ruined by annoying adds.

I have an issue. I had purchased this app and installed it on my android TV. This TV had to be set to factory reset due to a virus. Now If I go to install it the drop says |Its already installed on the Android TV device" I want to reinstall it. How do I do that ?

TD UK always comes through for his users. This app works just as he described and is very simple to use, especially for novice users. It gives me peace of mind knowing my use is private.

Not connecting automatically since about a week ago. It was so reliable that I forgot that I had it installed but about a week ago, I could not connect to the internet and discovered that my Wi-Fi had an error saying it could not connect to private DNS server. Once I remembered about DNS Switcher, I had to reconfigure it and since then, I have to do this more than once per day so a bit disappointed that my purchase only lasted a few months before it broke.

Unfortunately the DNS Switcher didn't work for me. Followed the set-up steps for the NVIDIA SHIELD (running Version:9.2.0(33.2.0.302), switching on 'network debugging' to enable the app to function and installation of TV BRO web browser. No matter which DNS server I selected from the list and started using, after a successful DNS test through TV BRO, the app failed to block ads on YouTube, even with TV BRO ads switched off. I tried the YouTube app itself and no success there either.

Not useful for me and refund was refused unrightfully. The app works but doesn't read current dns nor permit to switch with a custom dns list (only one custom entry saved), in addition it doesn't use the implementation secure. Settings but only adb and require clicking "connect" at each launch (no automation). Bottom line, it doesn't bring a lot vs just using the free apps set edit and private dns quick tile from droid.
