Net Blocker allows you to block specific apps from accessing the Internet without root requirement.

How to use? Please watch demo
• TikTok: https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSreYVk4q
• YouTube: https://youtube.com/shorts/s4dMc5NZSaU

PLEASE read the descriptions below carefully before using.

As you known, there are apps and games which may:
• Access the Internet only to display ads or steal your personal data
• Continue to access the Internet in the background services even when you exited
Therefore, you should consider to block apps from accessing the Internet to help:
★ Reduce your data usage
★ Increase your privacy

Features:
★ Safe and easy to use
★ No root required
★ No dangerous permissions
★ Support Android 5.1 and up

PLEASE note that:
• This app only sets up a local VPN interface to be able to block the network traffic of apps without root. And it does not request the dangerous permissions such as Location, Contacts, SMS, Storage,... So, you can trust that it does not connect to a remote server to steal your privacy data. Please feel safe to use!

• Because this app is based on VPN framework of Android OS, so if turned it on you cannot use another VPN app at the same time and it may drain the battery.

• Even when apps and games are blocked from accessing the Internet, they can still display ads loaded from cache memory. So, you also need to clear their cache to be able to hide ads.

• Some IM apps (Instant Messaging apps, such as WhatsApp, Skype) may use Google Play services to receive the incoming messages if the app has no network. So you may also need to block "Google Play services" to block receiving messages for IM apps.

• Battery Optimization feature of Android OS may automatically stop VPN apps in the sleep mode to save battery. So you may need to disable the battery optimization for Net Blocker to keep it working normally.

• This app can't block Dual Messenger apps because Dual Messenger is a feature of Samsung devices only and it does not support VPN fully.

FAQ:
• Why can't I press "OK" button of the dialog?
This problem may be caused by using an app that can overlay other apps, such as blue light filter apps. Those apps may overlay the VPN dialog, so that cannot press "OK" button. This is a bug of Android OS which needs to be fixed by Google via an OS update. So if your device hasn't fixed yet, you may need to turn off the light filter apps and try again.

To me this is a phenomenal app! and I really appreciate it. Just a weakness and a suggestion. 1_ It works by creating a VPN which means I can't use my own VPN simul. 2_ Checkboxes are always vague in the first sight, you have no idea if these are the blocked ones or the freed ones. Not that it's a big deal, it becomes clear when you think for a moment but, I think you can make it better. For example, you can create two tabs and when an app gets blocked in the first tab, move it to the other tab.

It works well, except for the option to "Block internet per network type" That option does not work at all. I tried it with different Internet Browsers, Youtube, Netflix, Whatsapp, you name it. If you turn the Wifi option in and the Mobile Data option off to not allow mobile data, nothing works. Mobile Data has to be switched on within the app for any of these apps to work. So don't waist your money on this option, it doesn't work.

3 stars because I absolutely love this app, and it does what it says. 2 stars less cuz of this problem- (Telling you straight up that I turned off battery optimization) I've blocked wifi for whatsapp. But when I get a msg on telegram, I dunno why but the net blocker turns off on it's own. That really irritates me. Please respond. Edit: 5 stars! My problem was that my phone clears up memory at 12 midnight. Just turn off the blocker while it cleans up the memory and turn it back on after done. 💯

It's good but unstable. It keeps blocking apps that are allowed in wifi but not in data even after I connected to wifi. It also don't display related apps like what apps will be disable when a core app is blocked just like other blockers. Profiles need to be created everytime you make an adjustment instead of simply choosing 'save to this profile' option or something. Also some messaging apps like Skype and Messenger can't be block at all even if I block Play services.

Very good program, I have spent a lot of time looking for similar software. When I am at work, I want to ban any notifications from IM (WhatsApp/Line.......). I suggest adding the Group function to categorize apps with similar purposes so that you can quickly find the need to close/enable Network app. Currently I can only find frequently used apps through "show recent apps", I think the addition of the Group function will be more perfect. Thanks for your work!

Nice app and i love it because its add free. But can you add some more features like icon in the shutter for quick on/off net blocker firewall like netguard have. And some more viewing options for apps in main screen like small list, icons only, grid view etc. So we can manage more apps on one page if thy take small size. Hope you will conside it. And onece again thanks for such wounderful app.

Gives you control! Lets you pick and choose which apps have access to your internet connection, saving lots of data. Keeps annoying apps that try to run in the background, from accessing the internet without your permission, and slowing down your smartphone. Purchased!
