Android apps that can monitor inbound/outbound network traffic?

Hey all,

I’m looking for Android security / antivirus apps that can actually monitor network traffic, not just show total data usage.

Ideally something that can:

Show per-app connections
Distinguish incoming vs outgoing traffic
Show IPs/domains/ports (even partially)
Work without root (rooted options also welcome)

Play Store apps preferred, but open-source or non-Play Store tools are fine too.

I know Android has VPN API limits, TLS encryption, etc — just looking for the best practical options people are using.

Any recommendations or real-world experience appreciated. Thanks!

Is it possible to zoom out with the camera past the "1" filter?

I can't seem to do that on my Moto G 2025 and the Motorolla Subreddit isn't responding. I am not sure what to search on Google, I just keep getting the same answer that I tried at first (which is what prompted this question) or different questions.

Is there something I need to enable?

Dev.Macgyver's Photo Editor app for Android?

So, I was looking for a free alternative to Photoshop, and stumbled across this as a recommendation to someone who had previously inquired about photo editing apps. However, I'm pretty incompetent in the photo editing arena. My intent is to learn how to use this app (or another freenone that's more appropriate) to make absurdly silly content, and nothing more. I don't know if I'm using the correct vernacular, but, I want to learn how to splice together, overlap, and distort one or multiple photos, for the aforementioned reason. I feel like I might end up smacking my forehead here, but I can't seem to find any tutorials for this app that aren't at least several years out of date. If anyone can help me out, and or redirect me to an appropriate sub, I'd be quite grateful. Thanks!

Timer app that resets and restarted from the notification

I want a timer app that I can reset and restart from the notification. I often use timers to remind me of laundry and other tasks. The standard android timer app can be reset from the notification, but i have to open the app to restart any timer.

Ive looked into a few like multi timer and notification timer and both have the same behavior as the standard app.

Is there a way I can get red Dead redemption running on my officially unsupported Google pixel 6

I've tried clearing cash and storage for play store. Cache for red dead redemption, and cache for netflix, it still won't work, on one attempt it managed to get far and I signed in with Netflix but then it was on a pending screen for a long time. I downloaded red dead redemption from an apk in some wrbsite I forgot what it was, because on play store it says it isn't compatible. I'm kinda new to this apk stuff.

Discord Help

I desperately need some Discord help. I have two problems that drive me crazy:

1. I often post pics or vids, and while it is uploading (my internet is pretty slow) I'll switch back to whatever app I was on before. But Discord will switch BACK to itself once the upload is complete. But only sometimes.

2. When I tap on the message box to reply to someone, the keyboard will cover the text box and I won't be able to see what I'm typing. But only sometimes.

Any help on either of these would be greatly appreciated. I've tried regular Discord (and possibly others but I won't say as that is against the rules here) but nothing works.

Android app and linux program that lets me use a linux file server at home as a storage drive?

I have a linux file server that I run NFS and Samba on, but that is for local network only, is there a way to get its 4tb drive accessible over the internet to an Android phone? Either by tunneling NFS/Samba or separate protocol.

Free nutrition tracking app?

I'm looking for a nutrition / calorie / macro tracking app. I used to use My Fitness Pal, but it seems like it moved more features behind a paywall compared to last time I used it. Any suggestions? Would prefer a free one

Best messaging app besides Google messages?

I need a new messaging app besides Google messages but I can't really find a good one. I need this because I need a messaging but I am modifying it to give it a custom package name for reasons I don't need to share but that process breaks some apps such as Google messages (the google dependencies I guess)

I just need any good messaging app besides Google messages. I heard textra was good but a lot of the reviews are saying how it has issues with not recieving/sending certains texts or images etc and the UI honestly isn't as material-you/modern imo

What apps do you find useful for your tablet?

I recently got a Samsung tablet and I've been messing around with how I can make the best use out of it productivity/personalization wise. I use it for school mainly so I've been using the Samsung Notes a lot for note taking and PDFs, but I was wondering if anyone had any app recommendations.

Can't sign in to Amazon/Kindke

I got a new Samsung Galaxy for Christmas (git a new phone, got a new phone, got a...oh, sorry, got a little carried away) and after some fuss--aka calling Customer Care--got it activated and pretty much set up. The only problem is I can't sign in to either Amazon or my Kindle app.

I'm signed into both apps on my laptop, so I'm not shut out and my current phone number is in the system. But when I try to sign in on my phone, I give it my email and my password (it doesn't seem to believe I have a passcode) and it tells me it's sent a verification code to my former number, which I no longer have access to.

My apologies to whoever does have thar number now.

Does anybody know how I can sign in with my current phone number? I do love my laptop, but I can't take it everywhere just in case I get a chance to read!

Daily activities tracking app

I am looking for an app where I can just track how my days look like where I just choose each time I am doing a given activity that I started the given activity and then that I finished. A simple one without (too much) ads, blocking other apps, asking too much personal information etc.

discord mod?

Does anyone know of any Discord app mods for Android? I really love exploring app mods; they always have interesting extra features.

https://redd.it/1qcktff
@r_androidapps

The discord app was released on 2015. Was there a popular client for the app before? (If that even existed) maybe like "reddit is fun" Or the mobile experience on Android was always limited to the web?

Which iOS-only app do you wish existed on Android?

Not talking features or system stuff. Just apps.
If you’ve used iOS before, which app do you still miss on Android and why?
