SecureLine VPN blocks Android Auto
« on: March 16, 2024, 11:15:51 PM »
I have a Samsung A53 with Android 14 and all the current fixes. I am having problems connecting it to Android Auto (which I need for Google Maps and other Google apps) on my VW Golf with the VPN active.
The connection is through Bluetooth, and other aspects of the connection are working correctly, such as the telephone.
If I try to start the connection with the VPN connected, I get an error message - Communication error 21 (see the attached screenshot for details). If I press the 'Connect' button and disconnect the VPN, I can connect properly to the car. This is not satisfactory, as I then have to remember to restart the VPN once I leave the car.
I cannot find any settings applicable to Bluetooth or to any specific Android apps within the Secureline App.
So, how can I get a clean connection without disabling the VPN manually?
