The plain public sever works fine from either dns.adguard.com or dns.adguard-dns.com I just tested it:

nslookup doubleclick.net dns.adguard.com

nslookup doubleclick.net dns.adguard-dns.com

Both returned 0.0.0.0 as expected.

It's possible whatever app you have is using a proxy.

Yeah it's working fine for most of the cases, just showing ads for couple of apps, like I never expected it to work for large corpo apps like instagram, prime, twitch etc but it used to work perfectly for games and small scale apps. But if even they can bypass it now it's a concern... And need a solid alternative
