NetGuard
Short description
NetGuard, the first open source no-root firewall for Android
Long description
NetGuard is a simple way to block access to the internet - no root required.
Applications can individually be allowed or denied access to your WiFi and/or mobile connection.
Blocking access to the internet can help:
- reduce your data usage
- save your battery
- increase your privacy
NetGuard is possibly the first free and open source no-root firewall for Android.
Features:
- No root required
- Simple to use
- Free of charge
- Open source
- No extra battery usage
- No bandwidth reduction
- No calling home
- No tracking or analytics
- No ads
- No internet permission required
- IPv4/IPv6 TCP/UDP supported
- Block system and user applications
Most of these features are the result of sending selected traffic to a sinkhole, instead of filtering all internet traffic. This means that advanced features, like address-based filtering (needed for hosts blocking), traffic logging, and on-demand configuration, are not possible.
