      This is the answer, also shows you which trackers are getting blocked and allows you to individually unblock them in case you need it for an app to work.

        Really surprised to see a game made by Cartoon Network themselves, who make games for KIDS, have trackers.

        By the way, what does “digital printing” mean? They track my finger’s literal printing or…?

    Pihole or other network-based ad blockers might be able to do a lot of the same things. Or an ad-blocking DNS set in the phone’s settings. But I don’t know of anything else that has the same on-device VPN implementation as the DDG tool.

    Maybe RethinkDNS

    Or even DNSNet if good lists are added to it

      2nding RethinkDNS, since you can also use a Wireguard profile with it for system-wide VPN. Normal the app (and apps like it like TrackerControl) would replace a VPN because it runs a local VPN (using the android feature) to filter system traffic.

      UBlock blocks ads from the websites you acess. The tracker thing stops your whole phone’s apps’ trackers.
