About this app

GlassWire is the ultimate data usage monitor for Android! Our app makes it easy to monitor your mobile data usage, data limits, and WiFi network activity.
Instantly see what apps are slowing your phone’s Internet connection or wasting your mobile data.

Key features
• GlassWire’s data alerts keep you under your data limit and save you money on your monthly phone bill. Get alerted before you reach your carrier data limit to avoid overage fees.
• See a graph of which apps are currently using your mobile carrier data or Wi-Fi Internet connection.
• Instantly know every time a new app accesses the network and begins using Wi-Fi or mobile data.
• Swipe right to go back in time to see which apps used mobile data earlier in the week or month. See past Wi-Fi or mobile usage by day or month.
• Go to GlassWire's "Data Plan" screen to set up zero-rated apps that won't have their data usage counted against your data plan. GlassWire can also keep track of roaming, and roll-over minutes. Create a data usage widget.
• Check GlassWire’s Speed Meter on its notification bar to quickly see real-time data usage.
• Help protect your privacy and reveal suspicious app activity through GlassWire’s graph.
• Block apps from connecting to the network, or allow or deny new connections before they start with GlassWire’s mobile firewall. Create multiple firewall profiles, one for mobile and one for WiFi.
• Have an unlimited plan? Unfortunately, most ‘unlimited’ plans will throttle you (slow & limit your connection) once you user a certain amount of data. GlassWire can alert you when you start to get throttled.

Protecting your privacy – 20 million users protected!
Our Windows and Android software combined have been downloaded over 20 million times! We make money through sales of our GlassWire for Windows software, not by selling your data to third parties. With GlassWire your data and app usage information never leave your phone. GlassWire will NEVER show you ads or violate your privacy.

Instantly block badly behaving apps with GlassWire’s firewall
Instantly allow or deny new app connections with GlassWire’s new mobile firewall. The Firewall feature is based on a VPN connection (VpnService API) that GlassWire creates to block connections from unwanted applications. GlassWire never uses your personal information for commercial purposes, advertisement, or shares it with third parties.

Supported mobile networks & providers
GlassWire’s data manager features work great with many different mobile data providers and telecoms world-wide including Verizon, T-Mobile, Vodaphone, AT&T, Sprint, Magenta, and Jio. It’s also compatible with 3G, 4G, 5G, Edge, GPRS, Wi-Fi, and most other popular telecommunications networks. GlassWire can also provide you with Internet usage alerts if your Cable, DSL, or Satellite ISP has data caps.

Suddenly seems to have stopped working... Has an Android update broken it? Original - I've used Glasswire for many years now, and have paid for the premium version since the start - gobsmacked it's all free now! (only just learned as my renewal has just been refunded) - Thanks guys!

I love this app, amazing functionality, and the best part, it's free, i like how I can check my weekly usage and days within that week, cause my phone only shows me monthly usage, but it could use some work though, the fonts and icons are giving old android look and feel, if you could update that, perfect, and also the try for windows tab at the bottom, it makes the interface look a bit chunky, but nonetheless, keep up the good work guys

app is great, smooth. But , it adds up the data usage of 10pm-12am to the next day cycle , often giving you a wrong data usage report. Everyday before going to bed I turn my mobile data off, but still the next day when I open my phone it says I've used 200-300 mb ( it's actually the readings of my downloads of previous night before 12am, I often download anime episodes with the remaining data i saved...but for some reason it add up that data to the next day cycle)
