Overview

Getflix is a Smart DNS specialist operating since 2012, based in Australia. Veteran Australian Smart DNS with a lifetime plan and VPN bundled into paid tiers. Facts are reported as of 2026-09-23 - treat claims accordingly.

Coverage & Unblocking

The total number of supported streaming services is not documented. Per-service status: Netflix: documented as working; BBC iPlayer: documented as working; ITVX: documented as working; Hulu: documented as working; Disney+: documented as working; Amazon Prime Video: documented as working; Max (HBO): documented as working; sports services (DAZN/ESPN/Sky): documented as working. Large channel list across US/UK/CA/AU; per-service toggles in the dashboard. Coverage claims are a snapshot: streaming services fight unblockers, and a service that works today can break tomorrow. Every streaming service still needs its own paid subscription - Smart DNS only changes which regional catalog you see.

Devices & Setup

Documented device support: Smart TVs, Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, game consoles, routers, mobile devices, desktop browsers. Setup follows the usual Smart DNS pattern: you point the device or router at the provider DNS servers and register your current IP address in the provider dashboard - dynamic DNS support takes the pain out of changing home IPs, and the IP allowlist ties the service to your connection. One registered location at a time.

Speed & Reliability

Smart DNS adds no encryption overhead - video streams travel directly between you and the streaming service at full line speed, which is the technology's main advantage over a VPN. Our daily reachability check tracks the provider site; unblocking reliability itself varies week to week by design of the cat-and-mouse game.

Privacy & Logging

Logging policy: not documented; jurisdiction: Australia. Be clear about what Smart DNS is: it does NOT encrypt your traffic and does NOT hide your IP address. This plan bundles a full VPN, which closes that gap when you want encryption.

Pricing & Plans

Documented pricing: $5.95 per month, $44.98 per year, $62.83 per two years, $149 lifetime. Free trial: 3 days, no credit card required - the honest way to test whether your services unblock before you pay. VPN included with paid accounts (not in the trial). 25% discount on additional accounts. Cards, PayPal, JCB accepted.

Verdict

Veteran Australian Smart DNS with a lifetime plan and VPN bundled into paid tiers. Test it against the services you actually watch before committing to a long plan - a free trial or the money-back window is the honest way to do that.
