NextDNS Remote

NextDNS Remote is an independent app from RocketScience IT for people who use the NextDNS filtering service and want to manage it from an iPhone or iPad. It connects through the NextDNS API and is not affiliated with NextDNS, and it requires a NextDNS account. The analytics view shows total and blocked queries with charts grouped by profile, plus breakdowns by domain, device and security, over a timespan you choose. The query log shows what your devices are requesting, including a live-updating mode, and explains why a given request was blocked. You can edit blocklists, deny and allow lists, native tracking protection and parental controls, toggle blocking for services and categories, and switch between several accounts and profiles. Viewing is free; a NextDNS+ one-time purchase or subscription unlocks changing settings, the live log, multiple accounts and higher limits. Version 3.9, released on October 7, 2026, added iPhone Duo support, a Connection Status widget for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, and a side-by-side view of logs and request details on iPad and iPhone Duo.

Features

The version 3.9 release notes, published on the App Store on October 7, 2026, list "Support for iPhone Duo" and say you can now view logs and request details side by side on iPad and iPhone Duo. The side-by-side view is shared with iPad and no folded versus unfolded behavior is described, so we list it as Adapted. DuoDiscover has not yet tested it on an iPhone Duo.
