De1984

Releases

• Sep 27, 2026 2.7.8
  - Fixed: stop could keep failing after ConnectivityManager was used #107 - "Allow in Background" is now "Allow while screen off" #105 - One verdict per shared user ID; VPN Block All no longer cuts off Android System, Bluetooth, NFC - Fixed: a removed app's rule could block its user ID - Fixed: a VPN restart loop, and taking another VPN's slot unasked - Fixed: no new-app notifications for the main profile - Fixed: work-profile rows on ConnectivityManager; false or stale banners and notifications
• Sep 16, 2026 2.7.7
  - Fixed: turning the VPN firewall off and on quickly could leave it off. - Fixed: with Block All on root or Shizuku, apps could stay unblocked while the firewall showed as on. A start that cannot read the app list now reports the firewall as down. - Fixed: package actions could wrongly say root or Shizuku was missing. - Fixed: VPN mode drained the battery. The tunnel kept CPU cores busy, and root checks ran too often. - Fixed: for work and clone profile apps, VPN rules, Force stop, Reinstall and new-app notifications could act on your personal profile.
• Sep 4, 2026 2.7.5
  - Fixed: Shizuku-compatible apps were reported as "not installed", falling back to VPN mode. It now checks whether a Shizuku service is actually connected #103
• Sep 3, 2026 2.7.4
  - APK now records the exact source commit it was built from, so anyone can check that a published build really matches the source in this repository #102
• Sep 2, 2026 2.7.3
  - Fixed: push notifications stopped arriving under "Firewall Blocks All by Default". Google Services Framework is now allowed by default, next to Play Services. Block it yourself if you do not want it #101 - Fixed: unblocking Mobile left Roaming blocked, and nothing on screen said so. - Fixed: blocking one network for the first time also applied the Block All default to the networks you had not touched. - Fixed: the app list could come up empty on first launch and stay empty until you restarted the app. A failed scan now says so and tries again. - Apps that share a user ID now show the state that is really enforced, even when the app blocking them is not a protected one.
• Sep 2, 2026 2.7.2
  - Fixed: system apps such as "Android System" were not blocked in ConnectivityManager and NetworkPolicyManager modes. - The app now tells you why a switch is off, instead of leaving a dead control with no reason. - Apps that share a user ID with a protected app now show what is really enforced, not a false "Blocked".
