Hi,

i have a Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite with LineageOS and root. I use AFWall to block internet for some applications and Adaway to block ads. This doesn't work for some Apps. I tried NetGuard, that works diffrent. But NetGuard has to root support and is using the VPN. This means when i need my VPN i have to turn off NetGuard. Is there an alternative to NetGuard that supports root where i can block specific URLs per App? The only other way is to add a very complicated iptables in AFWall but AFWall is crashing every time when i do this (the normal blocking still works).

hello, what is your objective, why you want to block internet and URLs? Tell me in detail so, may be I give other solution.
 
I want block ads in an app where adblock vor blocking over DNS doesnt work. It trued netguard and it worked.

I want to block the connection from the YouTube app to my smart TV. There is a notification every time i Start YouTube and the TV is turned on. This notification can't be disabled.
