Awesome Features of GlassWire

Protect Your Privacy — Trusted by 20 Million Users!

GlassWire for Windows and Android has been downloaded more than 20 million times. The Windows version is how GlassWire generates revenue, and GlassWire never sells your data to third parties. Your data and app usage details stay on your phone—no data is sent away for advertising purposes.

GlassWire also does not show ads and does not interfere with your privacy.

Instantly Block Malicious Apps with GlassWire’s Firewall

Use GlassWire’s mobile firewall to instantly allow or deny network access for newly detected apps. The firewall works through a VPN connection created by GlassWire using the VpnService API. This lets GlassWire block connections from unwanted apps.

• GlassWire won’t use your personal information for commercial purposes.
• No advertising, and your information isn’t shared with third parties.

Supported Mobile Networks and Carriers

GlassWire’s data tools are compatible with many carriers worldwide, including Verizon, T-Mobile, Vodafone, AT&T, Sprint, Magenta, and Jio. It supports major network types such as 3G, 4G, 5G, Edge, GPRS, Wi‑Fi, and most other common telecom networks.

If your internet provider uses data caps for wired/DSL/satellite service, GlassWire can also notify you about your internet usage.

Fantastic Performance of GlassWire

• Stay in control with alerts that warn you before you hit your carrier’s data cap—helping you avoid expensive overage charges.



• See exactly which apps are using your mobile carrier data or your Wi‑Fi connection right now.
• Get instant notifications when a new app starts using Wi‑Fi or mobile data.
• Swipe right to review which apps used mobile data earlier this week or month.
• Review historical usage with daily or monthly views for both Wi‑Fi and mobile data.
• Open the “Data Plan” page to mark zero-rated apps—apps whose usage doesn’t count toward your data allowance.



• Track roaming data and remaining talk time.
• Create data usage widgets for quick access.
• Check the speedometer in the notification bar for a real-time snapshot of your usage.
• Use GlassWire graphs to help improve privacy and spot suspicious app behavior.
• With the mobile firewall, block apps from connecting—or allow/deny new connections before they start.
• Create separate firewall profiles, such as one for mobile data and one for Wi‑Fi.

Unlimited data note: Many “unlimited” plans reduce speeds after you pass a certain amount of data. GlassWire can alert you as soon as your connection begins to be throttled.

User Comments of GlassWire

• “I’ll never own another phone without this app—ever.” They explain that the app reveals how background apps (including pre-installed ones) use data by monitoring any app using your phone’s cellular antenna or Wi‑Fi, and provides a detailed log plus quick access to settings for any app causing the issue. They also mention saving battery life, reducing data use, and avoiding intrusive ads from spying apps.



• “Great software.” One reviewer notes it works as a strong alternative to Datally, especially since Datally no longer supports blocking apps from using mobile data. They add that the blocking feature requires a paid subscription, but it can pay for itself if it helps prevent exceeding the monthly cap.

• “Perfect for tracking Wi‑Fi usage and speeds.” Another reviewer wanted to understand their Wi‑Fi usage and real connection speeds to decide whether they could avoid a costly cable bill. They say the app fit the need well, runs smoothly, and is completely free “for now,” with no annoying ads or pop-ups.
