I keep VPN open on my desktop so I can check that it's on, was wondering if there's a more efficient and active indicator is available. Sometimes (on reobot) it turns off and if I don't remember to check, I don't know that it's off.

Or maybe a way to connect it to Firefox so that every time FFX opens, it connects through the vpn?

Hello!

Unfortunately, the auto-start isn't an auto-connect feature. It will simply start the app up when you start the computer. You still have to manually toggle the VPN on. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Additionally, the only way you will be able to verify if the VPN is on or not is by opening the client and checking the On and Off switch.

We have received a lot of feedback regarding the auto-connect feature, and we are looking to add an additional visual indicator showing when the VPN is on.

Thanks for your feedback. We're always striving to improve our products and your feedback is invaluable in that goal!
