Is My VPN On Checker ? (lemm.ee)

Does anyone know of a foss android app that will notify me if I load certain apps that I also need to use with vpn on?

I don't need my vpn always on, but I do for some apps. Ideally I'd like to be able to toggle the apps I want it to monitor.

If it could switch the vpn on as well that would be top.

That's very interesting. I'm not sure I fully understand the concept, but I'll find some reading to help me along. Thanks for that.

Your work profile is on your phone, but it acts as a totally separate user. It can have its own independent VPN settings. Its own independent applications. So if you set up a work profile with and always on VPN, any applications in the work profile will always use that VPN no matter what.

As far as the user interface goes they're just like any other app but they have a little suitcase in the bottom right corner of their icon.
