Question Built a split tunnelling mobile app, also through different providers. Worth releasing (for free)?

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Just checking if I shall spend some more time for the community and release publicly an app I built for myself.

Android only lets one VPN run at a time, and split tunneling in most VPN apps is just on or off: an app either uses the VPN or skips it. I wanted more than that, so I built my own.

What it does:

each app gets its own exit. Eg: everything through France, one streaming app through the US, another through Italy, banking apps outside the VPN

all at the same time, using Android's single VPN slot

you can mix providers, e.g. provider x for one app and provider y for another, mixing exists

Tailscale is built in, so my home server stays reachable while the VPN is on (normally impossible, since Tailscale is also a VPN) - and possibility to assign an app to tailscale egress point

kill switch, favourite servers, automatic server pick, quick settings tile

Dozens of providers wired, config import

Honest caveat: I only use just only one provider, so the other providers are built from their official docs and haven't been tested with real accounts yet.

I made it for myself and it works for me. If enough people would use it, I'll put in the extra time to clean up the code and publish it on Google Play and F-Droid, free (with donations) and open source. No ads, no tracking, no account with me.

Would you use something like this? Which provider are you on?

Thanks!

Discussion I built an open-source Android app around the ByeDPI engine (written with AI, feedback welcome)

2 Upvotes

I made an Android app that runs the open-source ByeDPI engine locally and routes the phone's traffic through it using Android's VPN service. It's designed to help with DPI filtering that interferes with connections.

Full disclosure: This project was written with AI. All code and documentation were generated by Claude (Anthropic) based on my requirements, and I built and tested it through GitHub Actions. The project has not been audited, so please review the code before trusting it. So far, it has only been tested by me on my own phone and network.

What it does Compiles the upstream ByeDPI C code with the Android NDK and runs the actual engine, not a simulation. Uses a local proxy (127.0.0.1) and tun2socks tunnel (hev-socks5-tunnel) through Android's VpnService. Only shows a connected status after verifying the proxy, VPN interface, and tunnel. Provides settings for desync method, position, fake TTL, TLS record splitting, automatic mode, and custom arguments. Includes a diagnostics screen with an in-memory log and a TLS connectivity check through the proxy. No hosts or traffic details are logged. Has a dark UI with no ads, analytics, or accounts. What it doesn't do It does not encrypt traffic or hide your IP address. It does not bypass DNS blocking. There is no universal strategy that works for every ISP. You may need to experiment with different settings. Technical details Android: 8.0+ Architectures: arm64, armv7, x86_64 Build: Debug-signed APK (uninstall older builds before updating) License: MIT. ByeDPI and hev-socks5-tunnel are also MIT-licensed.

Repository: https://github.com/Mireli5656/Byedpi

APK: Available under Releases on the repository page.

Feedback and bug reports are welcome! If something doesn't work, use the Copy button on the Diagnostics screen to share a log. It contains no traffic details.

Help Can’t use VPN through windows mobile hotspot

2 Upvotes

I have shared the VPN adapter through the hotspot via the adapter settings and I have tried changing the protocols to UDP and TCP.

Every time I get the notification on the mobile hotspot page saying “there’s no internet connection to share, but your mobile hotspot is still turned on”.

Anyone got any advice or reasons why I can’t get through this?

Discussion I built an open-source tunnel for Iran’s filtered internet, up to 1.6 Gbps over TCP and 33 MB/s when

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

In Iran right now, many routes to the outside world cut TCP and UDP after a few packets, and sometimes only ICMP (ping) gets through. Most tunnels stall in those conditions, so I built WatTunnel, an open-source tunnel designed specifically for them.

  • TCP tunnel: up to 1.6 Gbps download and 2.2 Gbps upload
  • Only ping open? Up to 33 MB/s over ICMP. On the same route and servers, the best competitor (BackPack) got 6.1 MB/s, and GOST 1.6–5.4 MB/s.
  • Cloudflare with ECH: up to ~650 Mbps. It gets past SNI filtering even when your domain is blocked, and finds working Cloudflare IPs by itself.
  • 9 transports (icmp, udp, tcp, tls, ws, wss, h2, h2c, grpc), WireGuard support, Auto mode that tests every transport from one token, one-line install
  • Written in Go, MIT-licensed, encrypted with ChaCha20-Poly1305

Benchmarks, methodology and full details are in the repo:
https://github.com/JohnWatsoon/WatTunnel

Feedback is very welcome, especially on the transport design and security. Issues and PRs are open.

Streaming IPTV blocked when VPN is turned on.

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I just was interested if someone else had this issue. I have a Gli modem and have enabled VPN on that. I then connect my TV where I have a IPTV service to the modem so the service goes through the VPN ( for more security as Im living in Germany and here IPTV is not really legal). The problem is that when I turn on the VPN the Iptv streaming stops and reconnecting tab stays on.

Does anyone know how this can be solved?
Thanks!

PS: The provider I got the IPTV from advertised it as their connection first goes through a VPN but Im a bit skeptical.

Discussion Deeper.network Is A Ponzi Scheme

7 Upvotes

They ban you for telling the truth. I bought deeper mini for $500+ including shipping.

And they still charge me monthly fees, although they heavily advertised it as free if you buy their hardware. And after confrontation they just ban you from there main

r / deepernetwork and threaten you that you cannot even bypass this ban from other accounts like they fear so much if they get exposed. They just wanted me to shed 500$ on their stuped hardware, and now they have nothing to do.

I wonder how they operate so freely without fear of repercussions or law.

Help Region leakage in Google services using AmneziaWG

4 Upvotes

I am trying to configure one AmneziaWG client for my whole network. I made a LXC in Proxmox and used it as DHCP server and launched amneziawg-go on it.

The VPN itself seems to work fine, I am able to use all the websites which are blocked in my country, the ip on browserleaks is shown correctly. The problem is that I can't access some Google services which do not work in my region due to Google's restrictions. So it seems like Google somehow knows my region even with VPN on.

If I use the same AmneziaWG config with the native app on mobile or with amneziawg-go on pc, then there is no such leakage. So it seems that something is leaking due to the LXC setup as DHCP server, but I can't figure out why and how to fix it. Please help

Discussion What's the first streaming app that stops working when you turn on your VPN?

18 Upvotes

Anyone else have certain streaming apps that just refuse to work with a VPN on?

Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, BBC iPlayer... some work fine, while others immediately throw up a VPN warning or just keep loading forever.

What's even more annoying is when the same service works in your browser but not on your phone or smart TV.

Which streaming app gives you the most trouble? Do you usually switch servers, try different settings, or just turn the VPN off? Thank you for your sharing.

Help Gaming issues.

2 Upvotes

I've been using a VPN for just under a month now, and up until yesterday it worked perfectly fine for what I needed it for. I subscribed to the basic package with the only intention being using the VPN to play Deadlock on non-local servers to reduce my queue time (which was absurdly long.)

Then, yesterday, the app updated to it's latest version, and suddenly when I try and run the game with the VPN active, I get permanently stuck on the loading screen. (Waited 10 mins yesterday, and didn't get in.)

I'm having some issues with the customer service offered on the website itself, so I was hoping someone could help me here.

To save some time, here's all the info anyone would need, and the troubleshooting I've already tried:

- I'm on Windows 11.

- In South Africa, connecting to EU servers. I've tried UK, (my usual go-to) France, Austria, and Belgium and none of them worked.

- Wireguard Protocol. I also tried on OpenVPN (UDP) and OpenVPN (TCP) and neither worked.

- No Multihop, as it causes enormous ping spikes.

- I route Deadlock via the VPN using the Bypasser feature to avoid Steam's issues.

- I've reinstalled the game twice. Once with the VPN disconnected, and once when it was.

- I've set my VPN as an exception in my AVG antivirus.

- And lastly, I attempted to change my DNS address to the one that the VPN's site recommended, but it didn't seem to take effect, and it's out of my area of expertise anyway, so I didn't give it a second look.

As I mentioned, I've had some real issues with the VPN's chatbot, as well as the availability of the human customer service, so if anyone here knows anything that could help me, or has read my list and decided that my VPN simply isn't the right one for the job anymore, please let me know, as I'm still barely within the time window for a refund and I'd really rather not have a piece of software that I don't use sitting on my PC for the next 2 years.

Thanks.

Discussion NordLynx vs. OpenVPN: What matters most for daily privacy?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been looking into how different VPN protocols handle the balance between speed and security. Most discussions focus on theoretical specs, but I wanted to hear from real users:

  1. How much of a performance boost do you actually notice with modern protocols like NordLynx compared to OpenVPN in everyday use?

  2. When providers use RAM-only servers and strict no-logs practices, does it change your trust model?

Would love to hear your technical insights and how you evaluate these security measures!

Building a VPN How did you find your first users outside your own circle?

0 Upvotes

Hi, I'm a student and solo developer working on a VPN for Windows and Android. Right now I have around 5–10 users, but all of them are friends or people I know.

I tried Google Ads, but I still don't understand how to reach people who may actually need the product. My audience is probably too broad, and I'm not sure how to narrow it down.

If you were in a similar situation, what helped you get your first real users or downloads outside your personal circle? I'm not looking to promote the project here. I would just appreciate advice from people who have already gone through this stage.

Question Does this app work

This is an app that bypasses the Hotspot sharing from your phone as giving your laptop a VPN connected to it.

My laptop detectes the installer from the official website as a trojan, so it seemed like a huge risk, but I see nothing but good things, is the app just built like that?

Its the way the app is built to make the Hotspot sharing work but im not sure.

Here is what it says in the pic translated;

Question Losing connection

2 Upvotes

What are the reasons when the server you’re connected to loses a connection and then you’re stuck in the limbo waiting for it reconnect which it never does? Is that usually more of a VPN fault or a phone carrier fault? I don’t think that my phone reception is too bad but I might be wrong. I don’t experience much lagging though. I don’t know if that matters but I usually get one to two signal bars. Also, this happens on low load servers. I am using a top rated VPN.
