Some hints to test the app:
* To import a openvpn configuration file, copy the ovpn file on the device memory and put in the same folder any external certificates/keys files. Then start the app, tap on "+" button in bottom right corner and choose "Import VPN profile". After the import, the files can be deleted.
* If something goes wrong, check the log. You can see the log by tapping on the vpn name, and so on the LOG tab.
* If the log has errors like "ERROR: Cannot open TUN/TAP" or "Tun device open exception: java.lang.NullPointerException", please try to reboot the device.
* If you have the access on the server side, check the log also on this side.
* Maybe your configuration is not compatible with the last version of openvpn, so try to set the option "Use old stable OpenVPN 2.3.2" in the "Options" section.

I hope you have patented this because you solved a problem all the VPN providers haven't been able to. Going to buy the paid version later today because I "can" add it to the family library and use it with all 3 users on my tablet.

Best UI of the OpenVPN apps I've used. Great information availability. However, it apparently throttles my bandwidth to 10Mbps on the dot. My other VPN connection with same settings gets ~50 Mbps (I have 250 Mbps connection).

Very good app with lots of options to tweak when compared with other VPN apps. I was looking for split tunnelling and this app does it perfectly. So far it's pretty good. Amazing developer. Very quick response to my questions. Much appreciated.

Everything seems great. Multiple sites can be used which is very nice. And then one day you try and access a file on your local network. Your local net is unreachable unless you explicitly go to edit your VPN, chose Routing & then exclude the local network. Why is EXCLUDE not the default? Nobody wants to lose local access to be behind a VPN. Why not also have a default setting that bricks my device & electrocutes me too? Not a sensible default setting.

Great app but it does not have the option to use only username and password for authentication. There are situations you would like to use vpn without certificates.
