Version 4.1.0

AFWall+ v4.1.0

• Custom rules at the application level - direct per-app allow/block rules
• Custom theme maker with pre-built themes (Amber, Ocean, Forest, Slate, Plum, Black) plus a high-contrast light theme
• Multi-user / work-profile app detection and improved app search
• Option to show package name alongside app name in the list
• Improved firewall rule generation - IPv6 control traffic (ICMPv6 RS/RA/NS/NA), loopback routing, LAN discovery (multicast/broadcast/mDNS/SSDP), tethered DHCP replies, Tor redirect ordering, reject-chain logging
• Improved root apply reliability - consistent failure handling; success now waits for both IPv4 and IPv6 rule application to complete
• Log service reliability - watchdog restarts a dead log watcher, batched log writes
• Multiple LAN subnets now route correctly to WAN (Issue #1362)
• Missing system apps caused by removal of QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES
• Import/export - removed filter that hid valid AFWall+ backup files
• Widget bugs - repeated toggle callback reuse, activity reference leak
• Per-app localhost blocking (Issue #1421) - reverted pending a more reliable approach
• Updated Target SDK 36 (Android 16) support
