Description
WG Tunnel is a WireGuard VPN client that strikes the balance between simplicity and robustness, making it the ideal client for casual and power users alike. Whether you simply want to automate when you're connected to your VPN or you're a power user with advanced privacy use cases, WG Tunnel has you covered.
Features:
- **Auto-Tunneling:** Automatically activate tunnels based on your device's active network details. - **Deferred Endpoint Bootstrapping:** Safely resolves endpoints and updates peers after the tunnel is up for better reliability and leak protection on startup. - **Handshake Monitoring:** Real-time handshake monitoring for instant tunnel health feedback. - **AmneziaWG Support:** Full support for AmneziaWG 2.0 through 3.1, providing robust censorship protection. - **Split Tunneling:** Flexible support for routing specific apps or traffic through the VPN. - **Split & Encrypted DNS:** Resolve DNS through the tunnel using plain DNS, DoT, or DoH, and optionally split by domain suffix (tunnel or system). - **Local Proxy Mode:** Expose WireGuard tunnels over a local SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy to browsers or firewall apps (like AdGuard). - **Lockdown Mode:** Advanced in-app kill switch that blocks all traffic while the tunnel is down. - **Quick Controls:** Quick Settings tile and home screen shortcuts for easy toggling. - **Remote Control Support:** Intent-based automation for controlling tunnels and auto-tunneling from automation apps (like Tasker). - **Dynamic DNS Handling:** Automatically detect and update endpoints on server IP changes without requiring a restart. - **IPv6 Endpoints:** Automatically upgrade to IPv6 endpoints or fall back to IPv4 based on network conditions without requiring a restart. - **Android TV Support:** Full support for nearly all features on Android TV.
Recent changes: What's new: - Auto-tunnel stability issue fixes - Stop on no network causing flapping in certain scenarios - Samsung network detection issues of underlay network while VPN active - Tunnel DNS DoH and DoT bugfixes that were causing DNS timeouts - System kill of Auto-tunnel service restart storm bugfix

Feature-rich and well maintained open-source client. Offers much more functionality and options than the official Wireguard app. Works great with Android TV. Thank you very much for your valuable work!

Excellent WireGuard client with a huge feature set. Auto-tunneling and flexible split tunneling are incredibly useful for real-world setups, and features like lockdown mode, custom DNS, proxy support, and automation make it far more versatile than the official WireGuard app. I'm using it for quite a while now and it's simply the perfect app for WireGuard.
★★★★★Menno Jonker· Aug 17, 2026
Ideal for having an always on, split tunnel VPN, so you can use the vpn for what you actually need it for, and nothing else, and only under the conditions you want it to run.
★★★★☆Saman Najafi· Sep 15, 2026
Great app in all regards. Yet, it would make it even more robust if features like default VPN providence (no need for adding configs) are added so that we can be connected to censored internet without having to first gain external configs

Crashes when you try to create a new from-scratch profile
★★☆☆☆Keith Manns· Feb 9, 2026
Trying it out on the Lenovo Tab Extreme, 14 inch screen tablet. I tried the qr code from Nonsense, but it doesn't load the settings right. So I tried to do it from scratch, but when I make this selection, the app force closes. I NEED to be able to use this app as I will be adding it to most of my devices and kids devices when we are out of the house. I want to be able to do the auto start on their devices, so I don't have to remind them or keep asking them to give me their devices, so I can turn on

Removed kernel level vpn in version 5. :(
★☆☆☆☆Jin W· Jan 27, 2026
Keeps crashing when trying to create tunnel from scratch. Can't even use any features.
★☆☆☆☆Christopher Acosta· Jun 25, 2026
Latest updates broke routine automation. Only reason I was using it, so it's useless to me until that's fixed. Using Samsung routines to call up the VPN on certain Wi-Fi SSIDs but lately Samsung routines specifically calls out wg tunnel having a bug which breaks the routine.
