Hello
No Firewall within the Mobile version even the paid version doesn’t have one: https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_mobilesecurityforandroid_userguide/wsa_mobilesecurityforandroid_userguide.htm#WorkingWithShields/AboutShields.htm%3FTocPath%3DWorking%2520With%2520Shields%7C_____1
The PC version does have a Outbound Firewall that works with Windows Firewall so you must have both for full inbound and outbound protection see here: https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#UsingFirewallWebShieldProtection/ManagingFirewalls.htm%3FTocPath%3DUsing%2520Firewall%2520%252F%2520Web%2520Shield%2520Protection%7C_____1
