This is the universal build of ShizuWall (github version) 2.3. It contains native libraries for every CPU architecture (arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64), so it installs on any Android device. The trade-off is size — it's larger than per-architecture variants. Pick this one if you're unsure which CPU your phone has, or if you plan to share the APK with multiple devices.

App Description

ShizuWall

A lightweight, privacy focused Android firewall application that blocks network connections for selected apps

without requiring root access or VPN

. ShizuWall leverages Shizuku to provide powerful network control capabilities. Requires Android 11 (API 30) or higher.

Why ShizuWall is Different

Shizuku-Only Approach

: Most Android firewalls require either Root access or a VPN service. ShizuWall uses

only Shizuku

, providing native system-level control without the common VPN drawbacks.

Per-app System Networking Control

: Uses Android's

connectivity

service (chain-3) via Shizuku to enable/disable networking on a per-app basis — no packet interception, no VPN tunnel.

Privacy-first Design

: The app is offline-first and does not phone home. There is no analytics, no tracking and no telemetry.

Notes

Firewall rules are applied using platform commands and are automatically cleared on device reboot (Android security limitation).

The app detects reboots using a boot-relative timestamp and automatically clears stale saved state so you won't be left with stale "enabled" flags after reboot.

By default only user-installed apps are shown. Use the overflow menu (three dots, top-right) to "Show system apps" if you need to include system apps for selection.

If anything goes wrong, rebooting the device will revert every change made by ShizuWall.

The app persists minimal preferences locally (selected apps, enabled flag) and stores a small boot-relative timestamp in device-protected storage so the app can detect reboots safely without exposing data.

No network calls from the app itself — it does not send any data to external services and has no internet access.

Frequently Asked Questions about ShizuWall (github version) APK

This is the universal variant — a single APK that contains native libraries for every CPU architecture. It installs on any Android device but is larger than per-architecture variants.

Yes — the APK's signature has been cryptographically verified against the publisher's signing key. The SHA-256 hash is shown in the File Information panel so you can independently confirm the file matches the original release.

Android 30 (API level 36) or newer. Older devices will refuse the install.

Install a free app like 'CPU-Z' or 'Droid Hardware Info' from the Play Store and look at the ABI / Instruction Set row. Most phones made after 2017 are arm64-v8a; if in doubt, download the universal variant.

All variants are functionally identical — same features, same version. They differ only in which CPU architectures the native code is compiled for, and (sometimes) which screen densities the included graphics target. Pick the one that matches your device for the smallest install size, or pick 'Universal' if you're unsure.
