Comments on PCAPdroid - network monitor for Android

★★★★★ Vivek Ashvinbhai Pancholi · Jun 6, 2025

Good app for cybersecurity constants, network security experts.

★★★★★ DJ Chesley · Jan 22, 2026

Love the app. Wish you could grip search through all the packets in order to find a particular string. Also, how come there's sometimes unknown applications sending traffic? You know you could do to improve this app significantly? Make it so that the viewable interface of the list of connections can be sorted like a spreadsheet. So you'd have a column for the amount of data or packets that you could tap at the top, and it would sort connections by which app is sending the most data.

★★★★★ Joshua Rowell · Feb 25, 2026

Grate apk love to see you make 2 more for the usb Bluetooth monitor devices like the ubertooth one and one for sub gigahertz monitor for the years stick that would be fun to test out as well.

★☆☆☆☆ Ausi Ngamale · Jan 31, 2025

I don't understand anything because I have read your user guide but nothing important matches to my expectations, .make it to be used by begginers of ethical hacking issues. Poor app🙄🙄

★☆☆☆☆ Nilam Dhok · Feb 28, 2026

App stops abruptly. Once the app stops abruptly no logs are generated then what's the use of this app then? Please fix the abrupt or sudden app shut down.

★★☆☆☆ Suresh Dora · Sep 17, 2025

Hey can I can sip request data like incoming call log request.

★☆☆☆☆ Tomie Kawakami · Dec 12, 2025

Useless. It doesn't even log the url params or the methods . If its get post and the params. So stupid.

★☆☆☆☆ Samg381 · Nov 16, 2024

Does not leverage root access. Requires a fake VPN to intercept traffic-making it useless for troubleshooting VPN issues.
