[Feature Request] Autostart on boot #6

Make the VPN auto start and auto connect on device boot if that's possible

For some reason it's impossible to enable the "Always-on VPN" option for this app in Android settings. I've been using this feature with OpenVPN to make it auto start. Hopefully it is a fixable problem as it is way more convenient than manually starting the service after every device reboot.

Well, looking like it can be enabled by modifying the app's code

Does anyone else here know Java? Or else I might try it out this weekend. Is the owner of this repo still active to accept a PR? I hope so
