When I built an app for Android back in the day, I had the option to deny it permission to access the internet, for the reason you mentioned above. Unfortunately, iOS did not give me this option to deny internet permission to my app.
Does anyone know if Android still gives this option and/or if iOS now gives this option?
- panpanna 7y agoNo, Google removed it with an _extremely_ lame excuse. People use the NetGuard local VPN to achieve this now.
- jimkleiber 7y agoHmm, after your comment, I just checked Android and it seems as if it's still there for developers to choose to add or not...https://developer.android.com/training/basics/network-ops/connecting https://developer.android.com/training/basics/network-ops/co... But perhaps you were talking about as a user of Android (not an app developer), you no longer have the option to deny a specific app from connecting to the internet. Is that what you meant?
- panpanna 7y agoI don't think that option is honoured any longer. It is not even visible to the user.
