Roaming Guard

The app guards the data connection when roaming

Overview

Features & Capabilities

Roaming Guard is a Chrome extension designed to safeguard your mobile data connection while roaming. Ideal for users who frequently cross borders, it helps prevent high data costs by managing your data connection based on your roaming status. For Android 4.4.4 and lower, it automatically disables data on unapproved roaming networks and re-enables it on approved ones. For Android 5.0 and above, it sends notifications to alert you when you roam on unapproved networks, prompting manual control. Additionally, Roaming Guard includes a caller ID feature that displays unknown callers even if they are not saved in your contacts. Simply set it up once, and let the app run in the background, providing peace of mind during your commutes and travels.

User Reviews

Roaming Guard is valued for its ability to warn users when roaming on unapproved networks, helping to avoid surprise charges, with a clean interface and useful additional features like caller ID. However, users report stability issues like crashes, and limitations such as not re-enabling data when back on home networks. Some find its notifications intrusive and desire more granular control over data roaming settings. Despite these issues, it is especially appreciated by users frequently near borders or with limited roaming plans.

Can't launch it. While showing the disclaimer, an error pops up and keeps popping up when I try to "continue" or "report"
