Android doesn't use my self-hosted dns-server in the private network (alien.top)

Hi, I'm hosting an own dns-server in my home-network, so that I can access my server in my private network with a domain without buying that domain. It works fine on my computer, but when I'm typing in the domain of my server on my smartphone, the browser doesn't resolve to the local ip of my webserver.

I already tried to change the dns-entry in the settings manually, but it doesn't worked. Do anybody of you faced the same problem or has a good solution for my problem?

I had a similar problem. Solution was to deactivate IPv6 support in the routing device.
