Feature description
This is similar to, but not quite, the same as #3689
While Mullvad offers its own ad and tracker blocking DNS, users may want greater customization of what to block and/or custom DNS resolution to use for private resources. In those cases, users may setup their own DNS using DNS-over-HTTPS or -TLS.
On macOS and iOS/iPadOS, one can use both a VPN and a DNS configuration profile for DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) or DNS-over-TLS (DoT) if one configures the VPN application to use the OS DNS resolver, per the following:
0.0.0.0/32
and::/128
as the DNS server in the VPN applicationThis approach works using the stock Wireguard app on both macOS and iOS/iPadOS.
I have tried Step 1 in the Mullvad app, and it does not appear to work, since there is no way to do Step 2.
Alternative solutions
Naturally, since this works using the Wireguard application, one can manually configure Mullvad VPNs in the Wireguard using this approach. However, this makes things less user friendly. For example, one cannot change Mullvad servers and locations very easily. It also takes up one of the five clients that Mullvad allows, limiting the use of the official Mullvad app in other situations.
