How long would it take to learn Combine assuming I have swift knowledge but not functional reactive programming? And what are some good resources (books, courses, etc.)?
This is one of the most comprehensive resources I’ve found for Combine. They include examples too. Learn the fundamental principles of a Publisher and Subscriber, as well as the common operators documented in that online book, and you should be good to go.
- PromiseKit or Google/Promises? (Update 2022)

Any good source on how to understand Combine framework? I'm really having a hard time grasping its concepts.
This is probably the best free resource you will find. https://heckj.github.io/swiftui-notes/

Why we will use Combine framework in SwiftUI
Using Combine is a really well made wrap up, explains pretty much everything with great detail, I think it's also better than Apple's documentation as far as I know, without a doubt.

Apple allows applications to track user locations without authorization
>API seems to specifically be for apps created by owners of WiFi hotspots to help users connect to those hotspots.
VPN apps also seem to use it: https://github.com/pia-foss/mobile-ios/blob/4618b55161ec5b8b...

Mullvad VPN was subject to a search warrant
I'm satisfied with the transparency Mullvad has shown by publishing its 9 audits.[1] I also appreciate how Mullvad releases up-to-date source code for all of its software clients, which I consider a bare minimum for any VPN to even be considered.[2]
Private Internet Access, on the other hand, does not release up-to-date source code for its software clients:
- PIA Android client: latest source release v3.14.0 (Mar 18, 2022) vs. latest Google Play release v3.18.0 (Feb 22, 2023)[3]
- PIA iOS client: latest source release v3.14.0 (Mar 18, 2022) vs. latest App Store release v3.20.0 (Mar 1, 2023)[4]
- PIA desktop client: latest source release v3.3.0 (Feb 23, 2022) / v3.4.1-beta1 (Aug 18, 2022) vs. latest downloadable release v3.3.1 (unknown)[5]
- PIA browser extension: latest source release v3.1.0 (May 31, 2021) vs. latest Chrome Web Store release v3.2.0 (March 8, 2022)[6]
It's not clear to me how much of a say you still have in PIA's operations, but if you have any influence, I kindly ask you to direct them to release the source code of PIA's clients on time, every time a new client version is released. Having open source clients was the PIA's last claim to credibility after PIA was acquired by the former adware/malware distributor Kape Technologies.[7]

Any good resources/advice for developing a VPN app ?
No idea but the PIA VPN app for swift is open source. At the very least you can dig through the code here and figure something out

Why Librem Tunnel is Leaving iOS – Purism
Note that the underlying application for Librem Tunnel on iOS ( https://github.com/pia-foss/vpn-ios ) is still on the Apple store and can still be used with the Librem One services ... one simply needs to perform the setup yourself (much like one needs to do for Librem One Mail on Apple).
