VPN on specific WIFI networks only?

Hi there,
not out of the box but there is a way more powerful solution.
With "tasker" you can virtually setup and configure everything. I use it (among other things) for exactly this.
I do travel a lot and i use public WiFi quite often, but I do not trust them, of course.
So, once i connect to a WIFI !=network1 and !=network2 and !=network3 --> Tasker starts VPN (wireguard to my home router in my case). if i connect to a well known (and conffigured (like e.g. network1) WiFi I do not connect VPN.

IF you follow that approach: keep in mind, taht some public as well as some corporate networks request you to sign in or enter a sting/pw/whatsoever. A automatic VPN activation would prevent such an interaction with a WiFi portal.

hope that helps

DaRon just wondering isn't tasker consuming a lot of battery by checking all those things?

chock-a-block if you are willing to switch to IVPN, they have a setting called "Network protection" where you can just do that: Select which Network you want to "trust" and therefore not connect IVPN to.

DeletedUser245 no, not really. Of course it depends heavily on what you want to achieve and you ask tasker to do.
as far as i am aware, Tasker profiles/tasks are neglectable in terms of battery usage as long as you do not overstretch location based tasks (kind of: perform tasy "y" once you are in the area (GPS wise) of "z"...this will end up in much more battery consumption compared to usual tasks (e.g. switch to "do not disturb" mode once you have an active calender event). Even in this case, i am far away to say that there is a battery drain.
So, no worries, tasker knows how to deal with it and at the end of the day, you are not able to say if the 1% of battery usage comes from tasker or from 10x switching the display on/off.
In my opinion the benefits and advantages of using tasker automation outweighs the battery consumption by far
