Onion Browser with Orbot not conecting. #383

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

While using the Onion Browser for iOS It's unable to connect if we have Orbot enabled.

Edit: Wops I should have read the other issues before posting.

Good to report this however. We are trying to improve the interop between the two apps.

If you're using an Obfs4 bridge, it will actually work, though... :-)

@tladesignz Yeah I can confirm this outcome. Couldn't there be a way to blacklist apps from going through Orbot and just ship it with defaut ignoring Onion Browser? Since it is a sepperate instance ie and app and orbot is considered an VPN (system wide).

Orbot just sees IP packets. No way to distinguish them by apps. (which is an intentional design from Apple, I would guess...) Anyway. Onion Browser v3 is on its way, which will actually be based on Orbot.
