well, 2 questions,
1. found the apps for IOS iPhone but it requests my iPhone password to create the VPN - can I setup VPN directly on the iPhone without giving the password to cloudflare?
2, u mention "or just use firefox on your device." - I download firefox in my iPhone but tested the DoH and it says "No" - what am I missing to setup firefox for DoH?

I see, but I find it strange that it would ask for the iPhone password. The screen asking the password is even different from iPhone. I went straight to creating a VPN and no password was asked (I took a vid so u can see).
what don’t think?

a link to the vid would be nice

You see, when creating a VPN, the process doesn't request password to iPhone.
there is a difference when an app tries to do it.. try other vpn's i.e. proxpn, private internet access (PIA) if they have an app it will ask for authorization
who do you want to be your connection to the internet? look around for a vpn vendor

No, maybe I am explaining wrong. On you recommended link u recommended cloudflare apps for my iPhone so I can enable DoH. When I downloaded and started the install process, it requested the iPhone password for the supposedly VPN it needs to create. Since the iphone vpa creation doesn't require a password, my questions was can I create the vpn separately from the cloudflare apps then install the apps?

vpn services have become quite cheap over the years... <$5USD/month for 3 devices.

Hi Eoin,
I already have Cloudflare secured DNS, that was easy; just enter 1.1.1.1.1. What I didn't get was that "Most of the VPN service providers will require you to configure the VPN via their apps for the same reason" - I haven't installed one in my mobile devices (so I thought it was only cloudflare doing it). I have installed VPN (fortinet specifically). Looking at my mobile fortinet install (downloaded from apple store for testing the authentication), it also ask for iPhone password... so this standardized stuff then.
I guess my best bet, being this my concern, is having a Two-factor authentication for Apple ID.
Ok Guys, thank u very much!
(thanx David for your input but my point was with cloudflare)

My question is more directed to encrypted DNS, so when u say " IOS is pretty locked down", u mean IOS already has DNS encrypted ? What did u mean by that?
