It's going to use whatever DNS it gets from DHCP. You have no control when on Mobile network, but if you control the DNS on your local network, that's what is used when you connect with WiFi.

If your phone allows you to use a manual IP address, you might have DNS server settings in there also.

na, the productivity OS from the empowering company wont let you set ip manually

but you can probably access whatever gateway there is(unless you're in a geeks house or tech business building) and reserve an ip for your phone and/or change the dns that gets sent via dhpc, go figure...

Setting ip manually on the device is not a good practice, if you really know what you are doing and want to save time instead of wasting it, you'll achieve the result with dhcp reservations
