I have two domains which I need to open the vpn for, but only those two.
This is primarily to save battery life.
The case is this:
- I open, lets say, the Home Assistant app on my iphone.
- my VOD notes the domain needs the VPN to connect.
- The VPN connects and I reach my home assistant server.
- I lock the phone and the VPN disconnects after ~30s.
- I then unlock the phone to read an email and the VPN than stays disconnected as its not needed for this.
As it is now the VPN reconnects every time I unlock my phone if I ever have tried to reach the domain in my VOD profile. Which in my case make the profile quite useless.

OpenVPN Inc does not want to receive any feedback for the "Connect"
OpenVPN clients via the community bug trackers (here and in GH issues).
Please resubmit - if still relevant - via https://support.openvpn.net/
Could you please explain use case in details? How exactly disabled reconnection after wake up did help you in daily routine using VOD profiles?
Thank you for feedback.
