Can't use another VPN app along with it (an Android limitation). CalyxOS (an AOSP ROM) plans to add support for multiple active VPNs [0] and may be other ROMs will too.
The app can forward TCP over SOCKS5 to other installed apps that support SOCKS5 proxies (like Orbot).
That said, since half our code-base is in Golang, we plan to embed wireguard-go once we figure how to do so [1].

- t0astbread 4y agoIt would be great in general if Android had more flexible APIs for implementing network filtering/VPNs. Perhaps this could be solved by some kind of app that registers a VPN service and exposes an API over some IPC mechanism so that other apps can handle filtering/routing? Although I don't know enough about Android to judge if that's feasible.
