Stop particular apps from using Wifi internet

PUNEETGAUTAM · 2025-01-27T23:20:19+00:00

Zuvor habe ich Xiaomi -Telefone verwendet, mit denen eine bestimmte App die Verwendung von WLAN- oder Mobilfunkdaten gemäß Ihrer Auswahl aus den Einstellungen einer bestimmten App einschränken kann. Aber nichts OS hat diese Art von Optionen nicht. Dieses Betriebssystem ermöglicht nur mobile Hintergrunddaten. Das ist sehr beunruhigend. Kann jemand bitte helfen? Ich möchte keine VPN -basierten Firewall -Apps von Drittanbietern verwenden.

Previously I used Xiaomi phones which allows to restrict any particular app from using wifi or mobile data as per your choice from particular app’s settings. But nothing OS do not have these kind of options. This os only allows to stop background mobile data only. This is very disturbing. Can any one help please? I don’t want to use vpn based third party firewall apps.

PUNEETGAUTAM Just curious, on what apps do you feel the need to restrict internet access and why?

Daniel apps that were installed by unknown sources, that are using internet for ads or run in background drawing internet, this feature very useful but Nothing OS is not providing this feature.

I mean why install shady apps in first place….

I have two whatsapp in my phone, 1 is business account for my work and another normal whatsapp for my personal conservation.

Consider I am showing some work related photos to one of my client though my phone in my business account,

If someone consider my girlfriend texted me in my personal watsapp it will pop-up in notification, there is 100 percent chance client will read that message

If I have the restriction option

I will restrict internet use of my personal watsapp account then I Will show photos in my phone itself

I don’t need it shady apps

I need it for privacy

Earlier Vivo phone had it

RavikiranIragond theres an app for that already and thats 100% safe. I used it but its not much of use. plus idk if anyone uses whatsapp for work. imo. idk it may be your case. another way is put phone on DND. so no other notifications will show up.

jay_again yes we do use WhatsApp for work purpose, third party apps are asking to tun on VPN

RavikiranIragond yea, third party apps work that way. they make firewall and turn off the connection using vpn for selected apps. thats only workaround now.
