[BUG] - WG Tunnel's VPN profile quickly toggles on/off on app open, killing active profile from another VPN app
Closed this issue · 0 comments
Describe the bug
When using a different VPN app and I open WG Tunnel, as it transitions from the splash screen to the main UI, it quickly toggles an empty VPN profile. This effectively and immediately kills the active VPN profile of a different VPN app I was using, unnecessarily.
Smartphone (please complete the following information):
- Device: Motorola Edge 40 Pro
- Android Version: 14
- App Version 3.4.7
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1: Ensure WG Tunnel is not shown in the recents menu of the device, as it counts as WG Tunnel being open in the background
(This issue does not occur when WG Tunnel is being opened from background, as shown in the screen recording below; just when WG Tunnel has been closed entirely)
2: Turn on the VPN of a different app, ensuring that the VPN icon is shown in the status bar. It indicates a VPN profile is active
3: Open WG Tunnel. Notice that the VPN icon in the status bar has disappeared. Subsequently, your VPN app will give some error about its VPN being remotely disconnected
Expected behavior
I expect my connectivity from my other VPN app to be uninterrupted, even as I open WG Tunnel, regardless of whether WG Tunnel is in VPN mode or whether any tunnel is on/off in kernel mode
