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.

Ratings and reviews

Sorry but I really don't believe this app is a network blocking app.. Otherwise no ads should not be appearing on screen.

Best and most important features of this app is only available for purchase, so the free version is incredibly restrictive, and basically pointless. You won't get many people buying your app if they aren't allowed a trial without all the restrictions - business101, guys. Uninstalled. NOTE::: The developers at "Grey Shirts" has an app called "NoRoot Firewall", and their free version is still the most effective I've found out of all the ones I've tested - and allows a lot more control to the user.

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.
