18 BLOCKED THREATS

Period: 1st Dec to 2nd Feb.

Mate, excellent work! ? But what has really irritated me in the latest Stable, is still a major bug, where the "Android OS" has consumed 8GBv / 2.1GB^ of traffic in 2 months! MORE THAN ANY OTHER APP! However "Android OS" has 3 ticks Blocking + HTTPS etc, and no ticks for Wi-Fi/4G....?

This was

not

an issue in .108 and next version (?), but has been in RC and latest Stable.

Uninstall/reinstall

unsuccessful

.

Can someone PLEASE check their system and confirm when Android OS is deselected for any network, that it still continues to communicate?

Thank you!

? ADGUARD REQUESTS ?

#. Add ability to set default view and customise number of days - e.g. 7 days.

#. Add ability to select default interface: Wi-Fi, 4G, or All.

#. Ability to not wait 10+ secs each time you enable/disable/edit a role within custom filters.

#. Ability to add custom sources via URL w/ update period, or import from file, e.g. EasyList + EasyPrivacy combined.

#. Ability to specify addresses and ports that cannot be reached for an app. E.g. Block *.facebook.com:* etc etc etc... Similar feature NoRoot Firewall offered, but only as IP in stable and I think address in beta (??).

#. Ability to multi-select applications, then apply bulk filter/rule actions, e.g. 10 selected user/system apps' rules https off > on; Wi-Fi screen off > on; etc...

#. Kill Switch to block all activity should the app or VPN be stopped? Root/no root options?

#. Firewall/Blocking profiles - traveling (configure to block all but browser/email), work, home, etcetera, so that it automatically restores and switches the app selection.

#. Improved application import/export which tells you what are the inclusions & exclusions.

#. Export and import Application/App specific rules.

#. Export User Filters and Whitelist, Advanced > Low Level > Everything! Checkboxes to choose what data to import from a backup.

Queries:

Should there not be more ports added to the default list? (Advanced > Low Level). E.g. Other random or commonly used that should be filtered? E.g. SMTP 25 (+TLS, +SSL)?

Do any options exist for tethering, to continue filtering, without having to disable firewall? Other firewall apps I had used had Tethering as an option to configure with all other apps. Plausible?

??? THANK YOU! ?✌?

Leave it blocked. It's just junk.

All these developers use 3rd party services for collecting stats.

What many people object to is they can never really opt out, regardless of paying!! E.g. In-app purchase does not remove tracking, advertising core, etc!!!.

Blocking resources from being loaded from these junk servers, your games, apps, and resources load faster without the junk and spam from developers. There really are so many risks and potential issues, too many to list here.

Paid apps and developers do NOT always remove their obligatory tracking, analytics, advertising. I've seen apps not showing any ads but were still loading their content in the background. The same with "Pro" add-on APK's, in-app purchases, etc. The code is all still there!

Less gullible than your average bear, ?
