Has anyone noticed the VPN disconnecting when charging the phone? Using IVPN, but I saw reports of Proton VPN too.

Happens every time. The VPN app has all permissions and unrestricted battery use.

I can't enable "Always On VPN" because Android Auto needs the split bypass, and breaks if that is enabled.

One way you could avoid this is using WG Tunnel https://www.wgtunnel.com/

You can turn on Always on VPN, import Wireguard Profiles and setup split tunneling.

I split tunnel with it and use Android Auto (Begrudgingly...)
