About this app

The official app for managing WireGuard VPN tunnels.

Ratings and reviews

Works really well when it works, but a couple big issues: connects on its own very often, even though "always on vpn" is disabled in Android settings. It would be nice if there were a confirmation dialog before connecting (it would be even better for this to just be fixed, but even then a confirmation option would be nice). Also when my endpoint was down, it would claim to be connected even when it wasn't. There should be some kind of failure notification when it doesn't connect.

The WireGuard Android app is simple, and does what it needs to do effectively. Setting up WireGuard for accessing my LAN while away from home was a breeze, and I can disable lots of extra ports I had forwarded for various services. Highly recommend this for anyone looking to quickly and easily improve security with minimal hassle. As another reviewer mentioned, having a way to auto-disable VPN when connected to a specific network would be a plus, but I'm sure there is an easy way around that with tasker.

I have never had problems connecting to my home network VPN server from work. I do get a lot of warnings from android about the app being too battery intensive but I don't think that's correct. Haven't noticed any unusual increase in battery consumption and I'm pretty much running the app whenever I'm not home which is practically always.
