Hey Product Hunt community! I’m Yuriy, CTO of Nektony, and I’m thrilled to finally launch FireWally - a free Mac firewall powered by Apple Intelligence! We’ve spent years building Mac cleanup utilities and security apps, and one question kept coming up: Why is monitoring a Mac's outgoing network traffic so complicated? The default macOS firewall is basic, and the most powerful third-party tools are often too technical (or come with a hefty price tag) for everyday users. This leaves most Mac users vulnerable to apps "phoning home" and excessive, hidden data usage. We built FireWally to change that. What makes FireWally different? - Totally free. - Built for simplicity with a single-screen dashboard. - One-click blocking of unwanted apps from going online. - Smart explanations for app connections using Apple Intelligence. Give it a try and let us know what you think! We’ll be here all day answering every question and listening to your feedback.

The product looks great and the focus on privacy first design is refreshing. I am curious whether you plan to add alerts or recommendations based on unusual traffic patterns. This seems like a tool that can grow in many useful directions.

@ngocphuc_1910 Thanks for the kind words! We’re glad the privacy-first approach resonates. Alerts and recommendations are great suggestions - we’re exploring different ways to evolve Firewally, and feedback like this plays an important role in shaping our priorities.

This is really cool. Just installed and setup. Might be more advanced but would love to see a log of the connections if it's possible. For example, I use Opal once/twice a month for calls and I realized it's been phoning home for some reason even though it's not actively being used.

@nkotov Thanks for checking out FireWally and for the kind words — really appreciate it!

Your suggestion about having a history of app activity is very interesting. We’ll add it to our wishlist.

If you have more ideas or feedback, feel free to share!
