Overview: This is the *DONATE* version of Android Firewall. Android Firewall is free and all functionality will always be free. The donate version is simply for those who wish to say thank you with more than just a good review.
This is a fork of the popular application Droidwall that uses iptables to limit data usage and add security to Android. Droidwall was originally created by developer Rodrigo Zechin Rosauro and was discontinued.
Android Firewall supports both ARM and x86 Android devices.

***NOTES***
YouTube requires MediaServer as well to function. This is not a bug. YouTube is working as designed by Google and requires the Android MediaServer.
The Internet Permission is required for LAN Support so that AF can access the subnet address information. AF in no way makes any calls out to the Internet.
Please refer to the help section of AF for further information.
