@rakleed have you tried adding AdGuard to your Proton VPN exclusions?
@maxikuzmin are you talking about split tunneling? I tried adding AdGuard to the exceptions in Proton VPN, and now Proton VPN connects normally. But why, if AdGuard works as a proxy and not a VPN?
@rakleed you may have selected VPN mode on AdGuard, so there was an app conflict. Only one VPN can work on Android
@maxikuzmin In the description of the issue, I indicated that I have the HTTP Proxy (Auto) filtering mode.
@rakleed you may also have configured the PROTON VPN on the wrong port
@maxikuzmin why did you close the issue?
In Proton VPN, I don't see any port settings anywhere. Also, I use the OpenVPN TCP protocol, since all others are blocked in Russia.
@maxikuzmin @ameshkov please take a look
@rakleed if you don't add it to exceptions, there will be an infinite loop (Proton -> AdGuard -> Proton -> etc).
@ameshkov why aren't AdGuard in auto proxy mode and Proton VPN compatible?
In the help https://kb.adguard.com/en/android/faq#vpn you just recommend using the proxy mode for compatibility with third-party VPN apps, but nowhere does it mention that in this mode AdGuard may be incompatible with a third-party VPN. Why?
It can, but you should not try to filter Proton VPN app itself to avoid infinite loops
So maybe you should disable Proton VPN filtering by default to avoid this issue?
We probably could add it to the default list of exceptions. On the other hand, what if the app tracks you and this way you won't see anything.
@maxikuzmin we probably need a separate task where we track all apps that need to be excluded + the explanation of why we do that.
