Why not use an app?

I prefer to use tools which I can make sure do exactly what they claim to do. Configuration profiles are rather transparent, they can be opened with any text editor and viewed. This website is completely open-source.
An app off the App Store might do what it should, sure. But it also might capture data inbetween and negate the privacy advantage that DoH and DoT bring.

How do I use this?

+

Visit this website using you Apple device and navigate to the tool. Then, select a pre-made configuration or enter your own settings and click/tap "Download profile". Your device will ask you a few times, be sure to accept the warnings.
+ The generated profiles are not signed. This is normal.

Why should I care about encrypted DNS?

DNS is basically the phone book of the internet. If you visit a website, your computer first contacts the DNS server to look up where its even supposed to connect to.
While the traffic itself is often encrypted nowadays, the lookup itself still is not without DoH/DoT. So anyone in the same network will still know exactly which websites you visited.
