I've noticed that my phone's DNS settings keep switching from 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com back to automatic every night. My software is up to date, and I've even installed Intra, which is supposed to help with DNS security, but the issue persists. This has been happening for the past 3-4 days, and I'm using a Samsung device. Any ideas on how to fix this?

It sounds like your telecom provider might be automatically setting your DNS back to the default. Instead of using the URL for Cloudflare, try entering the IP addresses directly into your DNS settings. For IPv4, use 1.1.1.1 as your primary and 1.0.0.1 as your secondary. This typically works better than URLs.
I tried putting in the IP addresses, but my phone won’t accept that format in the Private DNS section. Only the URL works for saving.
