Neutrinos and dark matter (DM) provide two of the most compelling pieces of evidence for new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, but they are often treated as two different sectors. Although collisionless DM has been the main paradigm for the last four decades, at the very least, DM needs to have interactions to be produced in the early Universe. Moreover, the hope to detect DM, other than from its gravitational effects, lies on its potential interaction with SM particles. This naturally implies neutrino-DM connections, which result in numerous observable effects. In this talk, I will review neutrino-DM connections from a phenomenological perspective. I will mainly focus on indirect searches of DM using neutrino detectors, but I will also comment on other neutrino-DM connections.
