Open Hosts Editor is a free and open source application to edit the /etc/hosts file for Android devices.
Your device must be rooted. Not all devices have the hosts file in the same path, so it might not work on yours. You can submit an issue so that I can investigate.
Note: the app's repo seems to be no longer maintained, so there won't be further updates. Please report should the app no longer work.
Wants root
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
