ON/OFF toggle widget #14

Open jerryn70 opened 7 years ago

Adding ON/OFF Toggle Widget will help users to quickly switch ON and OFF adblocking. Then you might think why switching OFF adblocking , the answer is some applications won't work when vpn is enabled example 'shareit' : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lenovo.anyshare.gps

So we are forced to turn OFF vpn to use that apps. At this point toggle widget will be helpful.

@jerryn70 did you try adding the apps which don't work to the whitelist? With the new app you can create a whitelist of apps, which are not affected by Block This.

jerryn70 commented 7 years ago

@ggsava Yes I have added to whitelist but it's not working . When I open shareit I'm getting this warning http://imgur.com/zPu2fAw

@jerryn70 did you restart the VPN after adding this app to the whitelist?

ggsava commented 7 years ago

I will install this app and test it later today and give you some feedback. Thx.

Wouldn't a Quick Settings tile be better for this? That way you can toggle it from within an app.
