> Our very popular privacy oriented built-in firewall, restricted networking mode, and per app data isolation features were all rewritten to account for AOSP’s new restricted networking mode and BPF. Additionally, data restriction and network isolation features were merged into a single implementation. Combined, this means that one of our largest pain points each bringup should now be easier to forward port in future revisions!
I'm so glad to hear this. Every other custom ROM's Android 12 version had to remove the "disable internet access per app" feature.
Lineage took its time to rebase to Android 12, but they did it without removing important features like this.
- hedora 4y agoThe button for per-app network disabling still exists in current GrapheneOS. Am I missing something?
- IceWreck 4y agoIs that build based on Android 12 ? If so I might be wrong about no custom ROMS adding that feature back in. Maybe grapheneOS and some other ROMS made their own patches to fix it.
- hedora 4y agoSettings says "Android 12" and the build date is this month, so presumably, yes. Their firewall is pretty simple though (per app enable disable). Does lineage support more complicated policies?
- PlqnK 4y agoOn my phone running LineageOS 18.1 (Android 11) I have the following on/off options for every app: Allow network access, Wi-Fi data, Mobile data, Background data, VPN data, Unrestricted data usage (even when data saver is on)
