Yes, I've read this and set everything according to it, but firewall keeps blocking this app.
I have allowed all connections but the issue still persists.

Check the log file and see what is blocked for that application.
Set a rule for it accordingly.

Also check the developers website.
There may be instructions on what to allow in a firewall.

Figured it out. Needed to set network profile to private and check "friends" box.
