Hello

I have a WireGuard (v1.0.20231018) VPN on my Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro 5G with Android 15 (Xiaomi HyperOS 2.0.102.0) and also the plug-in for Tasker (v6.4.16).
This VPN I can activate manually in WireGuard and it is working but not through the Plugin in Tasker.

I have activated the switching on and off by external apps in the settings of WireGuard, the Plugin is present in Tasker and I can run a Task to activate it, but it doesnt work.
The Task runs without any error, but the WireGuard tunnel’s state is not changed.

Exactly the same setting worked on my older phone with Android 9 but now on 15 it doesnt.
Anybody knows if it SHOULD work on Android 15? I don’t find anything about that.

Thanks for hints. frank

It was just the Battery Optimization, after I disabled that for WireGuard, it worked ☺

Sorry.
