About this app

PCAPdroid is a privacy-friendly open source app which lets you track, analyze and block the connections made by the other apps in your device. It also allows you to export a PCAP dump of the traffic, extract metadata and much more!

PCAPdroid simulates a VPN in order to capture the network traffic without root. It does not use a remote VPN server. All the data is processed locally on the device.

Features:

- Log and examine the connections made by user and system apps
- Extract the SNI, DNS query, HTTP URL and the remote IP address
- Inspect HTTP requests and replies thanks to the built-in decoders
- Inspect the full connections payload as hexdump/text and export it
- Decrypt the HTTPS/TLS traffic and export the SSLKEYLOGFILE
- Dump the traffic to a PCAP file, download it from a browser, or stream it to a remote receiver for real time analysis (e.g. wireshark)
- Create rules to filter out the good traffic and easily spot anomalies
- Identify the country and ASN of remote server via offline db lookups
- On rooted devices, capture the traffic while other VPN apps are running

Paid features:

- Firewall: create rules to block individual apps, domains and IP addresses
- Malware detection: detect malicious connections by using third-party blacklists

If you plan to use PCAPdroid to perform packet analysis, please check out the specific section of the manual.

Ratings and reviews

Invaluable app for me since being hacked by Xfinity through Google. Your app tracks their every move. And, with the MITM plug-ins, You cspture their every move. Anyone ever hacked like me should have this app to gather the intel it reveals. Your app will help me and others who want accountability for the deviants online and want to keep the playing field fair. Thanks!

Thank you guys! This APP is one of a kind here, I hope you keep adding more features and enhance his UI to be similar to the Wireshark Desktop version, it is way too easy in viewing the PCAP/PCAPNG files.

Remarkable, intelligent It's awesome to encounter apps that are well thought out and are educating at the same time. Beautiful design, beautiful UI, no ads, free. These are true developers. Thank you for your wonderful app. Best wishes to you in the future.
