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. All Android versions from 5.1 to 14 are supported.
We're very glad to inform you that Eddie Android edition 3.1 beta is now available, featuring a complete update of all libraries, enhanced TV support, a new quick setting panel tile, revamped VPN profile generation, connection control buttons on notification, specific Android 14 support, GPS spoofing (default: off) and much more.
Special notes on the new GPS spoofing feature: if enabled, the location of the device will be set to a fake GPS position upon a successful VPN connection. When connecting to an AirVPN server, the location will be set to the country where the VPN server is located, through predefined coordinates. If the device connects to a non-AirVPN server, random country coordinates will be selected. To test and use this new feature, please set Eddie as the "mock location app" for your device in the developer settings page (only one app at a time can be the mock provider). Once enabled, you can also set the GPS spoofing refresh interval between 10, 5, 3, 1, 0.5 and 0.25 seconds (default: 1 second). The options are available in the Settings > System view.
To those who will decide testing: thank you so much! Remember to uninstall any previous Eddie version before side loading the new Eddie 3.1 beta version. Please report at your convenience any bug and problem in this thread. If possible generate a report from the app: 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).
Please remember that Android TV has been stripped of the Always On VPN feature to prevent users from connecting to a VPN during an Android TV based system bootstrap. Therefore Eddie start & connection at bootstrap, as well as system built in leaks prevention, are not possible on Android TV 10 and higher versions. For leaks prevention you can rely on Eddie's "VPN Lock" feature. Android TV 9 and older versions can still start Eddie during the bootstrap and have it connected when you activate Always on VPN and configure Eddie accordingly.
