☆ ATTENTION: ROOT REQUIRED!!! If you don't know what root is, please search for "Android root" in the Internet. Front-end application for the powerful iptables Linux firewall. Allows you to restrict which apps can access the network. This is the perfect solution if you don't have an unlimited data plan, or just wants to see your battery lasting longer.
