SSM Apps publishes Android networking tools that help users change DNS settings and test network behavior. If you arrived here after searching for an SSM app, DNS changer Android tool or DNS speed test, this guide explains the two DNS products currently linked from the SSM Apps website.
SSM Apps DNS products
| Product | Official SSM Apps page | Core use |
|---|---|---|
| DNS Changer & Net Speed Test | Open product page | Android DNS changing and network speed/testing tools |
| DNS Changer Pro & Speed Test | Open Pro product page | Pro DNS changer and speed-test experience |
What does a DNS changer app do?
A DNS changer changes the resolver your Android device uses for domain-name lookups. Depending on the implementation and Android version, an app can make switching resolvers easier than manually editing every Wi-Fi network.
DNS changing should not be confused with increasing the bandwidth supplied by your ISP. A different resolver may improve lookup responsiveness or reliability, but it does not raise the physical speed limit of the connection.
DNS Changer & Net Speed Test
The standard DNS Changer product is the main SSM Apps Android networking option for users who want DNS controls together with connection testing. Use its official SSM Apps product page for the current Google Play link and product details.
DNS Changer Pro & Speed Test
DNS Changer Pro is the Pro product in the same networking family. Its official SSM Apps product page contains the current store link and feature presentation.
Which one should you open?
If you are comparing the two, start with the product pages rather than relying on old third-party descriptions. App versions, Android compatibility, pricing and store availability can change. The current Play Store listing is the authoritative place for release-specific information.
Private DNS or an app?
On Android 9 and later, the operating system includes Private DNS for compatible DNS-over-TLS providers. An app remains useful when you want application-level convenience, testing features, profile switching or support for workflows that the stock Android setting does not provide.

Google DNS with SSM Apps tools
Google Public DNS uses 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for traditional IPv4 resolver fields. Android’s built-in Private DNS setting uses a provider hostname; Google documents dns.google.
See the 8.8.8.8 Google Public DNS reference if you are unsure which format belongs in your current Android screen.
How to choose a DNS resolver
Do not choose only from a generic “fastest DNS” list. Resolver performance changes by carrier, ISP and location. A more useful process is:
- test the current resolver,
- compare several public resolvers on the same network,
- check both latency and stability,
- consider privacy/security features,
- keep the configuration that works consistently on your network.
Our fastest DNS speed test guide explains this benchmarking process.
