Russia: VPN Detection Bypass Script

1. Automate Community
2. Productivity

Turn off VPN seamlessly, launch the app, turn VPN on once you exit the app.

Recently, most Russian apps started blocking access if they detect a VPN. While most apps aren't that annoying and check your IP (which can be circumvented with whitelisting the app inside VPN client's settings), other lazy developers chose a way of checking your TRANSPORT_VPN flag, that cannot be spoofed in any way. And here my script comes in play.

This script is optimized for Happ VPN client as it doesn't provide a "connect" activity directly, so I had to circumvent this emulating UI interactions to initialize the connect. However, the disconnect action is now seamless. If you use a different VPN app, it shouldn't be a problem to re-record the gesture inside the block.

You can now modify the script to monitor the list of apps instead of creating a script shortcut for each app and replacing every app's icon you need it for. Simply figure out the package name of each app you need (block 24 will help you with that) and add package name in quotes to the "expression true?" block(№23).
