LG G3 Works well, however some options in the config file don't map to the UI and the app crashes if there is no network connection for any extended length of time.

Excellent Has many options. My VPN service does not have an app for android, but this app imported the VPN's config file. I use it with the IP Widget app so I can see in the widget my connection.

A Great OpenVPN Client! Could you also add native support for VPN over SSL or VPN over SSH?

Clunky since the last UI update I would still like an option to disable the confirmation dialog, if it is to be kept in at all, it does scarcely more than waste my time, providing "feedback" where there is no need for it. No, frequently switching servers to dodge throttling measures by robust censorship systems is not a "corner case," it is indeed one of the many main applications of VPN software.

Changing server will work with just one click. Just clicking on the already connected server will bring up the confirmation dialog. Arne Schwabe May 11, 2016
You want padding on the log screen or are annoyed of padding on the log screen? Arne Schwabe May 19, 2016
It should be working on Android N. Could you please contact me with the issues you are facing? App crashes when not being used over night Since the latest Samsung S6 update this app has crashed a lot of times when the phone is either being charged or not being used. This only happens over night however and I have saved screenshots of the logs to send to Arne. Ive already sent an email and have yet to get a reply. If there is another email address I can contact Arne on to resolve the crashing issue that I will get a reply I have no problems sending the logs.

You should have an answer. Works perfectly and good dev support! The app works perfectly and provides so much more features and options than the original Ovpn app. Initially I had some issues but the developer was happy to help and together we easily fixed the issue. Thanks so much!

Something of your imported configuration has been misparsed by my app. If you contact me I can try to resolve that. No Kill Switch But not needed :o) Nice Open VPN Software and easy to Configure, Great and Dependable at that, I have had zero issues so far.

There also other bugs that may hurt people. And also sometimes other features are useful for people. A superb bit of kit. I'm using this instead of the official ExpressVPN app to automatically bring up and tear down my VPN connections. This is because the ExpressVPN app doesn't expose any intents, so connections can't be automated using Tasker. Using OpenVPN for Android and the Tasker OpenVPN Plug-in remedies this deal-breaker. This allows me to automatically disconnect from ExpressVPN when I connect to my home wi-fi (because the whole house is already transparently routed over ExpressVPN via the router behind the cable modem), and reconnect again when I leave the house and revert to mobile data. You can even select which apps should make use of the VPN, so you can have, for example, a US TV profile for Netflix, Hulu, etc. and a UK TV profile for the BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4 and My5. The only thing wrong with this app is the lack of a Donate button to reward the author. Please fix this immediately!

Users complaining about the lack of donate button. I feel like asking for donations and I am fine without donations. There is a tiny paypal link the about screen if you want to want donate anyway. But no donations needed. Great app, I use it along with Tasker to automatically connect to my VPN anytime I connect to any WiFi besides my own. I have been using nearly daily for over a year now, on 2 phones and 2 tablets (after upgrades). I finally had my first issue, which took about 3 minutes to correct. Recently after upgrading the app on my Note5, the app would constantly crash. Since it was working fine on my Tablet, I decided to re-install with the intent of contacting the developer for help. The re-install fixed whatever the issue was however, and my VPN settings were still there after the re-install, so I did not have to put them back in. Results may vary of course.
