Android Question block access other apps to network

fransvlaarhoven · Mar 3, 2017

Hello,

is it possible to block other app's (e.g. webbrowser) to have access to the network?

Thanks for any suggestion

Additionally:

Your app does not have the privileges to control other apps or the android system. This is a wanted feature as it is a malicious behaviour (malware). Only the system apps/services are allowed to do that (like from Android 6 you can revoke/add permissions via system settings like internet access). Main goal is that the user/ownner of the device has control over it.

I was afraid it wouldn't be possible.

As an alternative, is it possible to detect the application that is active?

Mostly no. Especially not on newer devices.

@Erel is right of course, but you can use UsageStatManager by @DonManfred ( dont forget donation of course )

and you can use this in different mode, look this example
