I have some concerns about this app and I'm asking if it's useful or not, not the app itself but more the 3 protocols included in it. I2P, DNSCrypt and TOR. What is you opinion?

I have used it to bypass geo-location (via tor exitnodes) for years when listening to pandora radio. Have never been worried, but have never heard anything bad either. I got it from fdroid..

it's awesome. has a shit load of options you can set, and it's the easiest way to connect to the I2P network, and also a very custom tor experience.

I used it previously, not I2P though. Then I switched to RethinkDNS which I like better since it allows more control over what apps can do. It integrates with Orbot, so I can still use TOR.

I use it all the time with tor for fdroid.

But why is this a good thing? For Tor I canunderstand... But the other one

I don't use the DNS Crypt since Android has private DNS and I have already set it up but I have also used it for the I2P network
