AFWall+ (Android Firewall +) | Version 4.0.2
AFWall+ acts as a sophisticated front-end for the Linux
iptables firewall, offering granular control over Android network traffic. By leveraging root access and the
ACCESS_SUPERUSER permission, the application empowers users to restrict data access on a per-app basis across various connection types, including Wi-Fi, 2G/3G, Roaming, LAN, and VPN.
Technical Overview
The application supports both
IPv4 and IPv6 protocols and is compatible with x86, MIPS, and ARM architectures. While primarily optimized for Android 4.x through 7.x, legacy support is maintained for older builds.
- Automation: Full Tasker and Locale integration for profile switching.
- Security: Native support for PIN, pattern, or system-level protection.
- Leak Prevention: Specialized Xposed modules to prevent data leaks via the Download Manager.
- Flexibility: Custom iptables and BusyBox binary selection for advanced users.
