        I meant it more tongue-in-cheek :)

        My threat model isn’t such that I need it, it’s just really annoying. GrapheneOS does allow blocking network per-app, which is a sufficient workaround. It’s a bit tedious, but I can do the following:

        1. disable network on sensitive apps
        2. disable NetGuard and enable other VPN
        3. finish what I was doing
        4. undo step 2
        5. undo step 1

        I really wish there was a way to get VPNs and NetGuard playing nicely together. I want all traffic to be filtered by NetGuard, and then routed over the VPN. This is trivial on Linux, but apparently not so on Android, which is a shame.

          There might be an easier way to accomplish this. The RethinkDNS app has a built-in Firewall and WireGuard VPN client. It also allows you to configure per-app Wifi and cellular data separately. The only caveat is that you would need to manually import the WireGuard profiles from your VPN provider.
