Ask HN: How to analyse the traffic from a single Android app?

2 pointsby turbo_fart_boxabout 6 years ago
Android 8 made it a little more difficult to analyse the traffic for a particular app. I am working on someone else application and have noticed crazy amounts of network traffic while debugging the application (fyi its React-Native) and would like to figure out what exactly it causing the big jumps in net activity.

I use a local VPN (apps below) to get some information about the traffic (first option does not support IPV6 based on my tests).<p>Haven&#x27;t tested this on Android 8 yet.<p>I would be interested to see what other options there are.<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.google.com&#x2F;store&#x2F;apps&#x2F;details?id=app.greyshirts.firewall" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.google.com&#x2F;store&#x2F;apps&#x2F;details?id=app.greyshirts...</a><p>[2]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;noroot-data-firewall.en.uptodown.com&#x2F;android&#x2F;download" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;noroot-data-firewall.en.uptodown.com&#x2F;android&#x2F;downloa...</a><p>[2*]: Was not able to find it on Google Play for some reason!
