Description

In "apps vpn" mode, Orbot does not redirect DNS requests (i.e. DNS leak). As seen in the attached images my IP address appears to be from Germany but my DNS requests are still processed by my ISP's DNS server. If I use Drony (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.sandroproxy.drony) as VPN service with Orbot as the proxy server, Drony redirects my DNS requests properly.
