You don't need a VPN here in India. Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 or DNS over https is enough.

What's the difference? Why do you need an app?

It's built into android.

Private DNS is available since Android 9 (or around 40% of over 2B+ devices).

Nebulo works with Android 5+ and Intra with Android 4+ (close to a 100% of all Androids out there).
