Is there a way to stop a particular app from establishing ANY sort of outgoing connections to the internet but I still want the app to be able to use the internet when I want to but still be able to block "unverified connections at the same time. Such a thing exists?

What are "unverified connections"? You can use a firewall. – Firelord♦ Jul 3 '15 at 11:34

@Firelord Wait, those exist and work like on desktops? Any that use up minimal battery resources on the S6 cause it dies quickly already even on Power Saving mode. – verve Jul 4 '15 at 0:53

Most of the apps which needs root access uses IPTABLES which itself is managed by kernel, so you can be rest assured for battery. – Firelord♦ Jul 4 '15 at 7:27

@Firelord Oh, do all firewalls require root access? – verve Jul 5 '15 at 1:10
