Internet Helper for Gadgetbridge

Companion app for Gadgetbridge, to allow for controlled Internet access
New in version 2026.10.0
• Add UDP service
• Allow HTTP requests on a requested Wi-Fi network
• Switch versioning to calver (calendar versioning)
This app provides an interface to Gadgetbridge for HTTP/FTP/UDP transfers and WiFi control. It functions mostly like a low-level proxy. Gadgetbridge is in control of what is requested and what is shared.

A "dangerous permission" is required for making sure the Gadgetbridge user makes an explicit decision to allow/disallow usage of this helper.
