It requires "VPN Always On" system setting active and Android 7 or higher version Force AES-CBC suite option has been removed compatibility with Android 5.1 and higher version has been maintained bug fixes solving various issues, including the crash occurring on specific devices when some contextual menu item to connect was selected new option to skip a single promotional message ("Do not show anymore") has been implemented, without prejudice to future promotional messages manifest permissions modified in order to populate correctly app black and white lists in Android 11 and 12 check the changelog at the end of the message (*) Eddie 2.4 was linked against mbedTLS library. Such a major change has been adopted to offer TLS 1.3 and slightly higher performance both with AES and CHACHA20 cipher suites. Please do not hesitate to report any variation in battery life and performance in your device compared to Eddie 2.4. Important note for Android TV users. In Android 10, 11 and 12, a VPN application can start and connect during the device bootstrap if and only if "Always on VPN" option is active. Unfortunately the option is not available in Android TV 10, 11 and 12. Therefore the ability to start at boot is lost. OpenVPN for Android and openvpn-connect applications are affected by the same constraint.
