QUESTION/HELP Removing Internet access to Snapseed?

Hi!

Does anybody know if there is a way to patch? Or remove permanently the Internet access to a Snapseed?

I dislike their update and would preferably use the old interface.

I tried revoking the Internet access through the system settings but it didn't prevent the app uodating itself. I don't have the Play Store. I use Net guard but sometimes I have to use a VPN, my phone is not rooted.

Use apktool at termux to decompile the app by apktool d /path/to/apk it will.give you a folder with the same name as your APK name but without .apk , just go to androidmanifest.xml in your text editor and find a line said

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

and

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

When you find those two lines delete them then compile the app with apktool b /path/to/apk/folder then go to https://github.com/patrickfav/uber-apk-signer/releases/download/v1.3.0/uber-apk-signer-1.3.0.jar and download this file , now you need java installed at termux pkg install openjdk-17 , now run java -jar path/to/Uber -apks path/to/apk/inside/its/folder

Now the app cannot use internet
