ics-openvpn VS peertube-android

I've been working for a few days to build a good working VPN app (Non-commercial) but I'm finding so many different implementations of https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn that I don't know exactly where to start.

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.46): OpenVPN without root

I've been looking into doing something similar and stumbled upon a method that uses personalDNSfilter with OpenVPN for personalDNSfilter, which is a special version of the OpenVPN for Android app.

In addition we back several other open source projects, such as the OpenVPN GUI, OpenVPN for Android and OpenVPN 3 Linux ... these all provide various user interfaces on top of the OpenVPN Core component.

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.37): OpenVPN without root

Idk if this really helps as you said that most vpns do not work but I'd suggest to check this website to get a .ovpn file and then connect to the vpn with an app like this one. You said you tried Tor Browser, but did you try with Orbot? (Supposing you're on Android as you replied to a comment saying that you use a Samsung)

How do you write a script for a vpn on android? I don't think you can do that. I know how to use Macrodroid and I got adb at least, maybe this can help https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/548

There are other Android Python environments. I don't know about actually starting/stopping a VPN but there is this possible starting point: https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn/issues/597

OpenVPN for Android (version 0.7.27): OpenVPN without root

I was having same similar problem when I was developing my VPN app based on ics-openvpn. If that is your case then you should check my answer in this Github issue

Cool, I hope they keep it "safe for play store review". I have had to run my own server in order to get the client[1] I wrote to pass play store reviews.

There are various attempts out there to build a mobile client: Thorium, P2Play, TubeLab, and NewPipe are the ones we know about, but they're all of varying quality and features. There has yet to be an "official" client, or a client really good enough to recommend to newbies.

I made an android client specifically for peertube also open source: https://github.com/sschueller/peertube-android

Any help with development is very welcome as I have little time to invest at the moment.

Thorium an unofficial PeerTube client (version 1.5.0): a PeerTube player

Sadly I am quite sure my app [1] will eventually be removed from the play store as well if it ever becomes popular with the "wrong crowd". All it does is provide a way to connect to peertube (also fediverse like Mastodon) instances and watch videos. Which instanced you follow is up to you not me. Content is moderated by the peertube instance owners not me and I am not going to bother adding an instance blacklist for something I don't make any money from. Especially since you can reach any instance just using chrome.
