NEW ISSUE
Updated to iOS 10.2.1 and connection stalling EVEN MORE and staying up for even SHORTER DURATIONS.

FEATURE REQUEST FOR NEXT REVISION
How about ability to SECURELY DELETE OR DISABLE the log when you tap on the "status" button.

Same problem here too. At the moment this is totally unusable and should be pulled out from AppStore until fix.

Total failure!

Even after the latest update released on the 2nd, the issue still persists.
When in Wifi and vpn connected, the phone goes back to LTE and does not re-join wifi while the vpn is connected.

I have to manually disconnect openvpn and re-connect.

Well OpenVPN is this a known problem and if so is there an ETA? Thanks

Hi, I suffer from the same problems. You two, butthead2017 and cudiaco described exactly what I have too.
It´s terribly annoying, is there a way out of this?
This guy (link below) claims to have found a solution, though I have no clue how to set up what he suggests.
Any idea? That´d be great!
