Hello!

Eddie Android edition is a fully integrated with AirVPN, free and open source WireGuard and OpenVPN GUI client. It is based on official WireGuard library and latest OpenVPN3-AirVPN library (free and open source software library by AirVPN), allowing comfortable connections to both OpenVPN and WireGuard servers. 

We're very glad to inform you that Eddie Android edition 3.3.0 beta 1 is now available. It is linked against updated libraries and it aims at perfect compatibility with Android 15 and 16 and revamped ergonomics. It also aims at keeping full compatibility with Android 5.1.1 and higher versions.

Thank you very much if you decide to test this new version and report any problem and bug you experience!
 

What's new

• full compatibility with Android 15 and 16. Compatibility with Android 5.1.1 and higher versions maintained

If you decide to test, please report at your convenience any bug and problem in this thread. If possible generate a report from the app in a matter of seconds: by tapping the paper plane icon on the Log view bar rightmost side you will generate a full system report which will include both log and logcat and have it sent to our servers. Then you just need to send us the link the app shows you (open a ticket if you prefer to do it in private).

Thank you very much!

airvpn.org/tv must link to the latest stable release, that's correct. The other points will be investigated immediately.

Thank you so much, as usual, for your tests! Can you tell us your Android TV version as well as your TV box brand and model?

Kind regards

So far so good after updating from 3.2.1 (Android 16).

Will report back if encountering any issue.
