This firewall feature operates via a VPN connection established by GlassWire (utilizing the VpnService API) to block connections from unwanted apps. GlassWire will never use your personal information for commercial purposes, advertising, or share it with third parties.

Supported Mobile Networks and Carriers

GlassWire’s data management features are fully compatible with numerous mobile data providers and telecom carriers worldwide, including Verizon, T-Mobile, Vodafone, AT&T, Sprint, Magenta, and Jio. It also supports 3G, 4G, 5G, Edge, GPRS, Wi-Fi, and most other major telecommunication networks. If your wired, DSL, or satellite internet service provider imposes data caps, GlassWire can also provide you with alerts regarding your internet usage.

Fantastic Performance of GlassWire

GlassWire’s data usage alerts help you control your consumption and save money on your monthly phone bill. Receive notifications before you reach your carrier's data cap to avoid incurring expensive overage charges.

See exactly which applications are currently using your mobile carrier data or Wi-Fi internet connection.

Receive instant notifications whenever a new application accesses the network and begins using your Wi-Fi or mobile data. Swipe right to see which apps have used mobile data earlier this week or month. You can also view past Wi-Fi or mobile data usage on a daily or monthly basis.

Head to GlassWire’s "Data Plan" page to designate "zero-rated" apps—apps whose data usage does not count toward your data allowance. GlassWire can also track roaming usage and remaining talk time. Create data usage widgets for quick access.

Check the speedometer in GlassWire’s notification bar to get a quick, real-time overview of your data usage.

Use GlassWire’s graphs to help protect your privacy and detect suspicious app activity.

With GlassWire’s mobile firewall, you can block apps from connecting to the network, or choose to allow or deny new connections before they are established. You can create multiple firewall profiles—one for mobile data and one for Wi-Fi.

Are you on an unlimited data plan? Unfortunately, most "unlimited" plans throttle your speed (slowing down your internet and limiting connection speeds) once you’ve consumed a certain amount of data. GlassWire can alert you the moment your connection begins to be throttled. 

User's Comments of GlassWire

I’ll never own another phone without this app—or one exactly like it. Ever wonder how many useless apps—most of which come pre-installed—are consuming data in the background? This app monitors and instantly reports *any* application utilizing your phone's cellular antenna or Wi-Fi, keeping a detailed log of the activity. It also provides quick access to the settings of any "offending" app. Free up battery life and save on data usage—easily and instantly. Plus, no more creepy ads generated by apps that spy on you.

Great software. As a refugee from Datally (which can no longer block apps from using mobile data—the entire *point* of apps like these), GlassWire serves as an almost perfect replacement (though I do prefer the "home page" layout of Datally). Yes, the blocking feature requires a paid subscription—but if it saves you from exceeding your monthly data cap just *once*, it has already paid for itself.

I don't usually bother writing app reviews, but this one is a keeper. I needed a tool to track my Wi-Fi usage and connection speeds to see if I could finally ditch my insane $300 cable bill—and to figure out what speeds I *actually* need, rather than just accepting whatever the cable company tells me I need. This app is absolutely perfect! To my surprise, it is completely free (for now), with no annoying ads or pop-ups. It runs smoother than butter! Kudos to the creator and the company for offering such a wonderful app—especially at no cost!

Excellent Highlights

Another key advantage of GlassWire is that all your data remains stored locally on your Android device. You can verify directly within the app that this information is *never* transmitted elsewhere—unlike the data collected by most other apps on your smartphone.

On GlassWire's home screen, you’ll see a graph displaying the internet data consumption of every application installed on your smartphone. In the top-left corner, you can adjust the time span displayed on the graph—ranging from 5 minutes up to 90 days. Additionally, tapping on any specific application allows you to view its individual data usage graph.

Final Verdict

GlassWire is an excellent application monitoring tool that offers a suite of highly practical features presented within an elegant and visually appealing interface. By utilizing this tool, you can easily identify whether specific apps are slowing down your network connection or consuming an excessive amount of mobile data.
