Android VPN app based on OpenVPN library.

Cake-VPN

Android VPN app based on OpenVPN library.
Install app from : Google play store

Note

I use free OpenVPN configuration file from this site https://www.vpngate.net/en/
I am not sure how long it will work with the free ovpn file. It's better to update ovpn files with your own ovpn.

Instruction to update server list:

1. Replace/add your .ovpn file with assets/ directory .ovpn file
2. Now go to MainActivity.class and find the "getServerList()" method there you have to update server information.
3. [!Optional] At Last go to SharedPreference.class and find the "getServer()" method there update default server information.

cake-vpn's Issues

UDP protocol?

Really awesome APK nice and simple just one issue I seem to have.
Apps doesn't seem to connect when using UDP protocol and when tls-crypt is within .ovpn config

using URL to update ovpn files

I was wondering if it was possible and feasible to use URL instead of hardcoding the ovpn files?

Clicking on Connect button while a connection is in progress

Hi,

Clicking on Connect button doesn't cancel/disconnect the connect process while a connection is in progress... What if a user needs to cancel an in-progress connection?

Anyway thank you for nice app!

Android 10 (Api 29) Support + tls-crypt

This library can work in Android 10 if we use compileSdkVersion 28, but it can't connect if using compileSdkVersion 29.

Next problem is the library doesn't support tls-crypt? I think the lates ics-openvpn can use tls-crypt and also can use api 29 to compile.

Do you mind if you update the library? Anyway, this is awseome!!!

Exclude app from using VPN

How can I exclude the VPN app itself to send the requests through the VPN? I am using admob with my VPN app when I connect to a VPN for example if I connect to a Korean VPN the ads are showing in korean. I think it could affect my admob earnings.

Is there any way to exclude the app by package name?

I was looking through the VPN source code, I found this class ExternalAppDatabase which contains methods addApp and isAllowed I tried with a condition if the package name is my app then return false or not add, but it's not working.

account

I would like to ask sir if there's a way I could add an accounts tab in which I could put their the ovpn user and pass instead of being embed in the java? how could I implement it sir?

Add an option so that the settings of an .ovpn file can be encrypted

Only the file can be decrypted in the same file that was encrypted.
