## Description

A privacy firewall that lives on your phone. See what your apps look up, stop the trackers, pause it whenever you like. No account, no server.

Ghosty is a privacy firewall that lives on your phone. It checks the connections your apps make and stops the ones that are there to track you. No account, no server in the middle: what Ghosty sees stays on your device.

HOW IT WORKS
A firewall has to sit where connections leave your phone. On iPhone and iPad that spot belongs to the built-in VPN system, so Ghosty asks iOS for a VPN configuration. There is no VPN server. Your traffic leaves your device for the sites you use, same as before. Ghosty looks at each domain lookup on the way out, answers the ones on your blocklists itself, and forwards the rest to the DNS resolver you choose.

WHAT IT BLOCKS
Five curated categories, each with its own switch:
• Analytics – usage tracking and session replay
• Marketing Trackers – cross-site profiling
• Logging – crash and event-log uploads
• Social Media – share buttons that phone home
• Consent Management – consent-banner telemetry

Add your own domains on top. Everything you block applies to every app on the device, not just the browser.

SEE WHAT YOUR APPS ARE DOING
• Home shows today's count and who tried most often
• Activity lists every blocked lookup as it happens, grouped by what caught it
• Insights breaks the day down by hour and by category
• Worth blocking suggests domains your apps keep asking for

YOU STAY IN CHARGE
• Pause for 15 minutes, an hour, or until tomorrow morning. Ghosty turns itself back on, so you cannot forget.
• Turn any category off with one tap
• Remove the configuration any time in iOS Settings

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account and no sign-in
• No server. Blocking decisions are made on the device.
• Lookups, domains, and IP addresses never leave your phone
• Usage reports are off by default and never include a domain or lookup. Turn them on or off in Settings.

GHOSTY PREMIUM
