PureBox

Setup PureBox in Google Chrome

Chrome can send the lookups it uses when you visit websites through PureBox instead of whatever your connection uses by default. That only applies while you are browsing in Chrome—not other apps on the same computer or phone.

When Chrome shows the box for a custom provider, paste this exactly (copy and paste is fine):

https://dns-us.purebox.app/dns-query

Turn on secure DNS in Chrome

  1. Open Google Chrome.
  2. Click the menu in the top-right corner, then click Settings.
  3. In the left sidebar, click Privacy and security, then Security. (On a small window you may need to open the main menu first to see the sidebar.)
  4. Scroll down to the Advanced section. Find Use secure DNS. Turn the switch on.
  5. Under Select DNS provider, open the menu. Choose Add custom DNS service provider.
  6. Paste https://dns-us.purebox.app/dns-query into the field below that menu. You do not need to restart the browser.

If you do not see Use secure DNS, your copy of Chrome may be older, or an organization may manage your browser and hide the setting. In that case, ask whoever supports your device, or set PureBox at the system or router level using the other guides here.
