How to block WI-FI or Mobile Data for an app?

Hello,

Xperia 1 II

I need to block WI-FI for one app

I know how this can be done on Samsung Galaxy S10+ and other smartphones

https://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-block-internet-access-specific-apps-android/

Settings > Mobile network > Data usage > Network access

"There is a list of all installed apps and checkmarks for their access to Mobile data and Wi-Fi. To block an app from accessing the internet, we uncheck both boxes next to its name. If we only want to turn off the Wi-Fi access for certain apps, we uncheck the Wi-Fi box for those apps, and leave Mobile data checked"

But how can I access this settings item if they are not in the Sony Xperia 1 II Settings? I tried to contact SONY, but their FeedBack page doesn't work ))

Maybe someone here knows the solution? Thanks!

Regards,

Dmitry

The simple way is NetGuard like you showed in your link.

It offers a lot of options which can help you prevent apps from going astray without your consent.
