Automatic Disconnect on iOS14

Post by F0erster » Fri Sep 03, 2021 3:10 pm

Hi,

i got my own OpenVPN server running on my Synology NAS, and connect to it with the OpenVPN Connect app. Import of the profile worked, as does the connection during regular use. However i am a bit annoyed by the app always disconnecting after the phone is locked for 30s.
After that the message "Your VPN Connection was interrupted - Please launch OpenVPN Connect app to continue" appears on the lock screen.
I have to manually open the app and connect to the profile again to use the VPN.

Is there any way to either keep the VPN permanently open, or reconnect automatically after entering the homescreen?

Thank you very much!
