Hi
I would love to have a setting which can restrict an app's internet access just like xiomi's MIUI skin does for apps which I don't feel like should have internet access (such as apps that I don't trust) for both mobile data and wifi. Just to make sure they don't send any data over to their servers without my knowledge.
I did not know where to post this so I'm just posting this as a community post.

Maybe this can be helpful with apps that try to steal your data or apps that only access data to show ads.

I searched for manage app data, nothing showed up

Would like this feature too (on one ui 5.1),

One ui 5.1 allows only wifi or mobile connection, but not disable both.

Nevermind, realized RethinkDns app on fdroid does all of this anyway PLUS vpn support so i can route it to any other vpn easily

Sad this isnt a part of android (except grapheneos) but this app is a godsend
