In addition, at the bottom of the screen there is an option to add a custom DNS server. It supports regular, DNSCrypt, DNS-over-HTTPS, DNS-over-TLS, and DNS-over-QUIC servers.

#### HTTP basic authentication for DNS-over-HTTPS

This feature brings the authentication capabilities of the HTTP protocol to DNS, which does not have built-in authentication. Authentication in DNS is useful if you want to restrict access to your custom DNS server to specific users.

To enable this feature:

1. In AdGuard DNS, go to *Server settings**Devices**Settings* and change the DNS server to the one with authentication. Clicking *Deny other protocols* will remove other protocol usage options, leaving only DNS-over-HTTPS authentication enabled and preventing its use by third parties. Copy the generated address.

1. In AdGuard for iOS, go to the *Protection tab**DNS protection**DNS server* and paste the generated address into the *Add a custom DNS server* field. Save and select the new configuration.
