Great App, only issue is the VPN connection always counts as "metered" regardless of the underlying connection (it should only be metered on mobile data and metered WiFi) EDIT: Other VPN apps don't have this problem.

Painless profile transfer from trial, and extended options - will give the boot options a try when i figure out a permanent way to stop APNs from preferring ipv6 - Response: the default APN changes edited preference after reboot (probably carrier controlled), i'll try to add one from scratch with a different naming convention, hopefully it survives a reboot. Although this is outside of the app's scope, i really appreciate the tips!
