Tried to open some pcap files created by NetGuard (app) running on my devices, but the reader crashes on open. I would have expected a more robust implementation which gives at least an error message instead of just crashing.

Looks nice in screenshots, but as another reviewer stated, crashes opening PCAP files saved by NetGuard. Running Nougat 7.1.x, so maybe incompatibility w/ Android?

I am missing a back and forth option. It would be cool to swipe left and right to browse through the packets.

I am able to open the pcap on my desktop but not through this app on my Galaxy s5.

Very basic. If all you need is to read the tcp metadata you're good, but if you want to analyze anything else, for example diameter traffic, there doesn't seem to be a way to configure that so you are stuck with seing the payload raw in a window where you can't even copy it.

Is there a specific way the files should be saved? Keeps saying please verify this is a pcap file, but no way to verify it. They are.
