User Reviews

AFWall+ is praised for strong, granular app firewall control, especially on rooted devices, and is seen as essential by many. However, users report recurring issues: it often requires root to function, faces iptables rule application problems, crashes after updates or when logging is enabled, and has UI performance concerns in newer versions. Some connectivity problems are also noted. Overall, its firewall power is valued, with ongoing maintenance helping address issues.
Pros
  • Powerful, granular per-app firewall control over internet access.
  • Best Admin app for rooted devices; highly recommended for root users.
  • Generally positive, with many users calling it an awesome/must-have firewall.
  • Active maintenance and updates from the developer.
Cons
  • Not usable on non-rooted devices; requires root for core functionality.
  • IPTables compatibility issues; errors applying rules or missing support for targets/chains.
  • Crashes or instability, especially after updates or when logging is enabled.
  • Performance/UI issues in recent versions (frustrating scrolling, UI freezes).
