  Same, wireguard with the 'WG Tunnel" app, which adds conditional Auto-Connect. If not on home wifi, connect to the tunnel.

    I just stay connected to wireguard even at home, only downside is the odd time I need to chromecast, it needs to be shut off.

      Can you add a split tunnel for just the Chromecast app (I presume that’s how it works idk I don’t use Chromecast) so that just that specific app always ignores your VPN?

        I haven’t tried it, but the app has the ability to select which app it tunnels.

        When you make a new tunnel, it says “all applications” if you click on that you can select specific ones to include or exclude

      I can stay connected, still works, but I don’t think I need the extra hoops.

    conditional Auto-Connect. If not on home wifi, connect to the tunnel.

    You don’t need this with Tailscale since it uses a separate IP range for the tunnel.

      I also have a different subnet for WG. Not sure I understand what you’re saying…

        If you have a separate subnet for it, then why do you only want it to be connected when you’re not on home wifi? You can just leave it connected all the time since it won’t interfere with accessing anything outside that subnet.

        That’s assuming you’re not routing all your traffic through it.

  I suspect that it goes down and stays down whenever there is an app update, but I haven’t confirmed it yet.

  Does the plain wireguard app stay up during updates?

    Android wireguard all hasn’t been updated in 18mo. Its extremely simple with a small code base. There basically isn’t anything to update. It uses wireguard kernel module which is itself is only like 700 lines of code. It so simple that it basically became stable very quickly and there is nothing left of update right now.
