The app seems fairly small in size compared to orbot which is really old and also invizible pro seems to do a ton of things that including firewall vpn etc . So does it connect to tor network properly and pass all your traffic through it as good as orbot and completely block internet acces to not whitelisted services as good as rethink do ? Or does it cut cornors and do all the things but do all of them horribly ? Is it audited or atleast watched by enough people to be secure ? Anyway share your thoughts .

I think if the app does everything it boasts to do perfectly its one in a kind and unmatched and probably would make any android really really safe but i’m really skeptical . I have tried it out a month ago but ditched it after reading that its firewall does not work that well but idk if that is true or not anyway share your thoughts .

      Yeah i know of tor browser but that’s just it a browser it can’t pass all traffic through tor . And the browser and orbot was removed from fdroid recently due to having proprietary blobs but they are working on a fix which will hopefull soon get them back untill then if you really want to use those add guardian projects official repo into your fdroid client .

            • Go to the settings of your F-Droid app
            • Enable the Guardian Project repository
            • Wait till it has updated the repo info
            • Install OrBot
