DeletedUser88 I disabled the network permission for ProtonVPN and then opened the app and it displayed my IP address. Could this be because I was previously connected to it with my actual IP or can apps with network permission disabled identify IP addresses?
other8026 DeletedUser88 it must be using the old IP address and has cached it somehow. I don't know how the app could get an external IP address without the network permission.
DeletedUser88 other8026 Yes that appears to be the case. I tried the same thing again but with a VPN IP address this time and Proton still reported the VPN's IP even after turning it off.
