Change protocol in Eddie (Ubuntu)

[hedgehoq 3]

Sorry if this is extremely obvious & I'm just missing it

In this country, Wireguard refuses to work for some reason. No problem, I can just switch to OpenVPN on Android from Eddie.
But on my laptop, Eddie doesn't seem to have such an option  Is there a way to select OpenVPN only from it? Thanks

What do you mean? In Eddie Preferences > Protocols, untick Automatic, then select an OpenVPN entry.

Well, like I said, this was extremely obvious and I totally missed it  thanks for letting me know. Didn't think merely highlighting an entry would select it. 

On that note, do you happen to know how I can change which OpenVPN protocol i.e. UDP/TCP on the Android app?

AirVPN server tab > Gear near the top > OpenVPN Protocol.

For Quick Connect, Hamburger menu in the top left > Settings > AirVPN > Default OpenVPN protocol.
