This is a neat concept but worth noting that any app that uses local VPN to analyze network traffic is technically doing a man-in-the-middle on your SSL / TLS data. It's not necessarily a problem but you have to be damn sure you trust the app, so it's great that this is open source.

Not really. From the website:
> Contrary to similar solutions, this application does not intercept SSL connections, minimising privacy risks and allowing for usage on unrooted Android devices. Only the meta data about network communications is logged, and displayed to the users.
