I just want the ability to turn off WhatsApp.

Like on a Sunday morning let me kill all notifications and calls.

Just add proxy to something that leads to nowhere to block WhatsApp from connecting anywhere.

Please could you point me in the right direction on how to do this / an app I would need. Thanks.

Adding proxy is a native feature in WhatsApp.

  1. Go to Settings > Storage and Data > Proxy.
  2. Add 127.0.0.1 in the IP address and add a random port too.
  3. When you want to disconnect WhatsApp from the internet, just turn on the proxy. To reconnect, turn it off.
