I’m asking for Android specifically, but I’m curious what else is out there.

For example, some apps work without internet but may use it if it’s available. I might want to block that without having to turn off wifi, force stopping it, and wiping the cache/data.

Similarly, maybe I only want to use the app over a VPN and want to prevent accidentally opening it without first turning the VPN on.

      With RethinkDNS you can block an app completely, allow the app (WiFi, cellular, or both) and block certain domains. You can also use DNS block lists, force or exclude apps from either VPN or Orbot. Block apps not in use, block when DNS is bypassed. A bunch more stuff.

      Been using it for a while, and am pretty happy with it. It has some nice features, and works pretty well for me, so I’d recommend giving it a try. I believe it, unfortunately, doesn’t support OVPN though. But as I understand Wireguard are to be preferred over OVPN anyways.
