**(30) Can I also run AFWall+ on the same device?**
Unless you are just testing NetGuard, there is no current reason to use them both, since they cover the same function (firewall) although with different base needs (AFWall+ needs a rooted device) and ways of doing their thing (AFWall+ uses iptables).
Also you need to keep per applicaton access rules _always_ in sync, else the application will not be able to access the network, hence bringing another level of complexity when setting and assuring things work out.
Some pointers on how to set up AFWall+:
* if not using filtering in NetGuard, applications _need_ direct internet access (Wi-Fi and/or mobile) in AFWall+
* if using filtering, NetGuard will _need_ internet access (Wi-Fi and/or mobile) in AFWall+
* if using filtering, when you un/reinstall NetGuard, remember to RE-allow NetGuard in AFWall+
* if using filtering, applications _need_ VPN internet access (check the box to show that option in AFWall+ settings)
