Same DNS question
The domain and selected record type are encoded as a standard DNS-over-HTTPS request and sent to each named resolver.
Selected public resolvers · TTL evidence
Compare one record across Cloudflare, Google Public DNS and AdGuard's non-filtering resolver. See the returned values, remaining TTL and response time side by side.
Compare DNS answersOne question, three resolvers
Use the exact name you changed. For example, check www.example.co.uk for a website record or example.co.uk for MX.
A focused comparison. These are three named public recursive resolvers, not measurement points in every country or network.
Why answers change at different times
A resolver may keep an earlier answer until its cached lifetime ends. Another resolver that looked up the name later can have a different countdown—or already hold the new record.
Read the DNS-over-HTTPS caching standardEach cache refreshes on its own schedule.
A transparent boundary
The domain and selected record type are encoded as a standard DNS-over-HTTPS request and sent to each named resolver.
Responses have short timeouts and size limits. Up to 12 values are displayed for each resolver.
The smallest relevant TTL is shown after accounting for an HTTP cache age when one is reported.
Three public resolver answers cannot represent every country, ISP, company network, browser or device cache.
DNS propagation questions
No. It compares the answers returned by the three named public resolvers shown here. It cannot represent every resolver, network, device or location.
Recursive resolvers cache DNS data independently. Recent record changes, TTL expiry, negative caching and temporary lookup failures can make their answers differ for a while.
It is the remaining cache lifetime in that resolver's response, adjusted for an HTTP Age header when present. It may be lower than the original TTL configured at the authoritative DNS service.
No. Agreement is useful evidence from these selected resolvers at one moment. Local, ISP, enterprise and other public caches may still hold a different answer.
