What the heck, is this a new "feature"? Does this also happen on other android flavours like AOSP or GrapheneOS?
How do people deal with this, do you turn off VPN whenever getting in a car?
Depends on the client, but wireguard has application exceptions.
Have you tried to split tunnel android auto to bypass the vpn?
I'll give it a try. I'm a bit surprised it's needed since the VPN excludes local network connections anyway
Try enabling local/LAN access in the VPN app
plug it in via us when u need to use it. that works even if u have vpn
