Hello! We're very glad and proud to inform you that Eddie Android edition 3.0 has been released, a breakthrough from version 2.5. The new release achieves full compatibility with Android 13 and maintains it down to Android 5.1. Various app sections have been extensively rewritten. Now Eddie Android supports WireGuard with swift integration with AirVPN infrastructure. A dark theme has been added for additional comfort together with new, improved connection logic and management. A sharp WireGuard networking management has been implemented: no more "forever dead wg client" haunting users running the Android WireGuard client in mobility. Profile generation have been improved: external export option has been added, and WireGuard profiles can be generated too according to the user selection. Profile generation now provides for a quick alternative to the web site Configuration Generator. Eddie Android edition is free and open source software released under GPLv3. We invite you to check from independent 3rd parties lack of trackers code signatures, for example here: https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/search/org.airvpn.eddie You can download Eddie Android 3.0 APK directly from our repository: or from the Google Play Store, please see here: https://airvpn.org/android/eddie/ Soon it will be available on the Amazon Appstore too. Source code (and of course changelog) is available in GitLab: https://gitlab.com/AirVPN/EddieAndroid/ Direct link to the changelog: https://gitlab.com/AirVPN/EddieAndroid/-/blob/master/ChangeLog.txt What's new Complete WireGuard support with full integration with AirVPN infrastructure WireGuard networking management to allow quick re-connections even when WireGuard would remain stuck after a failure. No more "forever stuck wg client" haunting users running the Android WireGuard client. Linked against the new OpenVPN-AirVPN 3.8.2 library Dark theme support and option to switch to dark, light or system default theme Improved VPN profile management Full compatibility with Android 5.1 up to 13 Extensive architectural revision and improvements VPN profile export both to internal database and external file or app Get faster support and more easily: send the app log and the device logcat to AirVPN support team with a tap and provide the team with just the link the app will give you back. No more adb or any other external tool and device connection required to generate the logcat. IMPORTANT: due to Google policy the local data encryption cipher has been changed from AES-256-CBC into AES-256-GCM. Therefore, before upgrading, we strongly recommend that you decrypt local data first if you had them encrypted by a Master Password. To do so simply disable the Master Password and then upgrade, so you will not lose your local data (not a big deal, but even so...). (*) (*) We could not even implement a failover AES-CBC recovery because the "smart" (???) automated Google review rejects the app as soon as it sees AES-CBC somewhere for local storage.

I have my pfsense firewall set up as described in the excellent nguvu.org guides, I have an always on airvpn connection and a few VLAN'S that run to the none VPN WAN interface.. Works fine most of the time, the hardware I use is a fanless intel five port minipc, there is also two non VPN LAN'S that use two hardware ports that also connect to the non vpn WAN interface. A problem arose when trying to use the Eddie airvpn client on one of the non VPN VLAN'S, or one of the non VPN LAN'S, Eddie refused to connect. The solution was simple, the nguvu.org guide shows how to create a 'Define local subnets' alias, or in the original pfsense guide it was called ' Private Networks'. example: 192.168.0.0/16 and then create LAN rules using this alias. Any private or local subnets not in this alias will not be processed as pfsense is unaware of anything except what is in provided in this alias, Eddie creates its own network for TUN ( I hope I have phrased this correctly ) so to solve the no connect issue a new private network 128.0.0.0/1 should be added to the Define local subnets alias. Not being an expert in networking it took quite a while to finally understand what was going on, reading the Eddie logs. the pfsense logs and pulling out what is left of my hair, Eventually I reset pfsense and rebuilt one LAN using the guide for testing, everything worked until I created the Local Subnet alias and associated LAN rules, that is when I had the light bulb moment ! I thought I would post this here in case it may help anyone with the same issue. This problem would have been easier to solve but networking is not my strong point !
