Hello,

 I would feel much more comfortable /secure if I could see the Icon of your App appears on top of the status bar when the application is running/active (like eg LBE). 

The point is,  that I have no control if the firewall terminates without my 
knowledge. - I. Proceed then working on the mobile, but in fact,  I'm then 
working unsecured...

By indicating the icon on top on the status bar it will give the user the 
confidence that everything worksfine ok and the firewall is on/active. 

You could add this optionally in the options menu. 

That would be great :-) 

Thanks for your great product and 

with kind regards yours

Would love to have this feature too.

I start DroidWall whenever I'm roaming (I work abroad), and without it running 
my phone consumes a lot of data. When it is running, it only allows some apps 
(e.g. WhatsApp etc) to reduce data as much as possible.

However, for the moment I have no idea if it is running, I have to open the app 
itself in order to check :-(

For the rest, great product !
