Find out which App is causing the Adware Request

[peter_zwegat_1992]

Greeting Folks,

in the last days I discovered that my Phone is submitting much more Requests than usually ( Millions instead of a few thousands)


This is the most adressed URL. Does anyone know where to retireve that Information which App is submitting these Requests?

With best regards,

Install AdGuard for Android and check filtering log. Screenshot seems to be from AdGuard Home.

How does one identify which app it is? I set logging mode to "Everything" and I can't identify the apps associated with requests in adguard.log.

Click on the url in log and you see it, in my case the app ActiFry.

Thanks, I didn't realize I could get those details from the log within the phone. However, do you know how to identify the apps within the .log file? Like, what the field name would be?

Oddly, for the specific request I want to look into, there is not an associated app. It's a DNS request being blocked. Not sure what to make of that. I thought an app has to be the originator.
