Comments on NetGuard - no-root firewall for Android

★★★★☆ Nathan N · May 21, 2026
Everything about the app is good however it can't block network traffic from apps that use Google services which is 90 percent of apps on android. So for me the app doesn't have much benefit, hopefully one day this feature will be added in.
★★★★★ asad semab · Jul 20, 2026
Net Guard – No-Root Firewall (500-Character Review) Net Guard is an excellent privacy and firewall app for Android that lets you control which apps can access the internet over Wi-Fi or mobile data without requiring root. It is open source, lightweight, ad-free, and uses Android's VPN service to filter network traffic locally. It is not a traditional antivirus, but it helps improve privacy, reduce background data usage, and save battery. Overall Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5). A reliable choice for users
★★★★★ Ray Reynolds · Jul 25, 2026
The Pinnacle of firewalls, in my opinion, because I figured out how to get this one to enforce data rules in combination with my VPN enabled, and running since Android 13, and that's why I hold this developer in such high esteem. And his "FAIR EMAIL" app is also a firewall, but for email, "ANY AND ALL EMAIL ACCOUNTS" 5⭐ from me.
★☆☆☆☆ Randall Carson · May 4, 2026
Can't tell if it's working. No notifications regarding any actions it's taking. No report on the apps that are trying to run data in the background or if it's stopped any apps from doing that.
★☆☆☆☆ Alee Hamza · Aug 13, 2026
It doesn't work at all. The app doesn't block internet for the selected apps.
★☆☆☆☆ Arthur Domino · Jul 25, 2026
Not reliable enough to keep your data plan safe from flaky Wi-Fi disconnecting in the middle of a YouTube or twitch stream. Works 90 percent of the time, but that 10 percent still blew my data cap.
