Identify devices
On the mobile phone on the private DNS I put what is indicated on installation, on the "installation" page of Next DNS I read at the bottom of the page to enable send device name in the app settings what does it mean? Which is not very clear. Then another fact about "statistics" I read unidentified devices, what are they? How do you see these devices?

Private DNS uses DoT as the connection to NextDNS. To add a device name to the DoT string you use this example:
device—name-abc123.dns.nextdns.io
(using two “-“ will give a space and abc123 is your configuration ID from your profile)

Try going to 'About Phone' and get the phone's Model name/number. For instance: for Samsung, the Model name may be SM-A24W?. That would be your device name.
I agree it's poorly explained, and no where in the NextDNS Android app. I use DNS Crypt, so I add this first, followed by the (-nextdns-profile number). Works perfectly.
