Google has known about a bug that breaks VPN apps for 7 months, leaving users exposed with no warning or error, just a VPN app that stopped working in the background.

If you're using ANY VPN on Android, you can help us by getting Google's attention to fix it.

We first reported this bug to Google in September 2025.

Others like @mullvadnet and Wireguard reported it even earlier, in August.

Google's response? "I don't see anything unusual."

Here's what's actually happening ⤵️

It won't cause a leak on GrapheneOS unless you explicitly disabled leak protection which is enabled by default. GrapheneOS has leak protection enabled by default and closes numerous standard Android VPN leak bugs.
