[ale] OT: Blocking Android app access over wifi

[Chris Fowler]

Not sure if this is really OT since Android = Linux ;) 

I'm going on a cruise in a few days and have purchased the maximum data package from the ship. I need to severely limit wifi usage on my Note 8. I see I can block background from "Mobile Data", but I don't see a wifi option. I see I can restrict certain wifi APs and I'm thinking that my treat them as mobile. 

I've deleted apps I do not really need. I've block K-9 mail from background on mobile, but I'd like to block it from foreground so that it only syncs when I tell it to. I'll check its config. I'll delete FaceBook and Messenger. I don't want to delete Dropbox or NextCloud so I need to restrain them. 

I've installed Google's Datally and it looks promising, but everything it does seems to be for mobile data only. I'd really like to treat wifi with the same level of priority. 

Any suggestions from those that may have locked their phone down?
