a. Need to stop internet access for all apps/services, even the background one’s. Netguard does not show background services/apps. Is that because root is needed for that?
b. Both TrackerControl and Netguard need to create a vpn point to work, so they can’t be used together. The use cases are well explained below, copying from some other website-
“NetGuard can block apps access to internet from a specific source of your choice (Mobile data, or Wi-Fi), While TrackerControl won’t help you blocking an app from using either mobile data or Wi-Fi separately
TrackerControl can let you block internet from only the tracking part of an app, while letting the other functional parts work fine (it can let you specify which trackers to block), So, it offers you a nice solution for example to play chess online on a chess app without being tracked or being forced to play offline to avoid tracking.”
Is there an app which is like the combination of TrackerControl and Netguard? I mean an app which lets use firewall, stop an app’s access to the internet, plus block trackers from apps?
Also many a times an app is opened but instead of tracking/blocking the trackers, trackercontrol keeps on saying to launch the app. Is that a bug?
c. Browser which has a feature for user agent switcher, a fingerprint defender and other privacy features. Found about mulch but the download page seems to be invalid

d. Is there any metadata removal applicatio for android?
e. Any FOSS maps like google maps?
f. Is there any app which lets one browse twitter without signing in?
g. Any FOSS vpn app?
