LostNet

Why blocking apps?

Some app simply don’t need network access to provide you with the service that you actually expect. But they will still use network to upload usage statistics, check for updates, download ads or send out stolen data.

Why blocking countries?

If you value the data you have access to then you probably do not want your applications to connect to the countries which you and/or your country does not really deal with well. These other countries may even treat hacking your phone as a legal activity and, sometimes, even provide government support to such activities. LostNet Firewall makes them disappear from your Internet.

How Does It Block Ads?

As LostNet Firewall intercepts traffic from all apps, it is capable of removing traffic to certain known web sites. The ad blocking feature enables blocking of traffic to known advertisement networks. Feel free to contact us and to provide more advertisement network domains to be filtered out.

How To Track Data Usage?

Use LostNet Firewall to see the data used by each individual app and how it is used throughout the day. If you see some data downloaded or uploaded at night, then you probably know for sure that it is something you don’t really need. Please, do revise the list of countries that each app is connecting to.

How Does It Save Battery?

Wireless communication is the #2 battery consumer (after display highlighting). A lot of energy is spent to bring the wireless communication on. Most of your apps perform multiple periodic activities which bring your wireless connection on. LostNet Firewall can block these connections before they turn on the radio.
