About Virtual Host
Virtual Host lets Android users define custom host mappings without rooting the device. It runs in VPN mode and supports wildcard DNS records, so one rule can apply to a domain and its subdomains rather than requiring a separate entry for each name. This can be useful for developers testing how an app or website behaves when selected hostnames resolve to a chosen address. The app is described as customizing hosts-file behavior on Android through a local VPN-based method. It is focused on name resolution rules rather than providing a general-purpose VPN service or changing the device’s network provider. The example in the supplied description shows wildcard matching directing several related hostnames to one address. Virtual Host is intended for users who need custom hostname mappings, particularly in development or testing. Its behavior depends on the rules entered and the VPN mode being active. The supplied information does not describe rule import/export, per-app filtering, or compatibility with every network configuration.
