+- in PCAPdroid you will see the traffic as it was generated from the mitm-addon app in place of the original app\n
+- when an app filter is set, decryption will only occur for the target app, but PCAPdroid will still show the other apps traffic\n
+- if the capture fails to start, ensure that you can actually run the iptables command as root (e.g. via termux)\n
+- this may not work on Android 12 and later\n
+- if a VPN app is running, you should either target a specific app for decryption or exclude the PCAPdroid mitm addon from the VPN, otherwise traffic will go in a loop
