Minor GUI/UX suggestion: Description of allowed apps toggle

Open ScriptTiger opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Just a super minor suggestion about the GUI.

In the profile settings in the "ALLOWED APPS" section the first toggle "VPN is used for all apps but exclude selected" changes text to "VPN is used for only for selected apps" when toggled while the next toggle "Allow apps to bypass the VPN" is static text and does not change when toggled. Traditionally since toggles are boolean their descriptions should not change when toggled, as you are either enabling or disabling, turning on or turning off something, you are not changing the context. So changing the text when toggled could possibly be slightly confusing as to the toggles absolute context.

I'll also note that the use of "for" twice in the same sentence is incorrect, it can be used once in either of the current positions but not in both places at the same time. Can be "VPN is used only for selected apps" or "VPN is used for only selected apps", NOT "VPN is used for only for selected apps".

Like I said, this is just a minor GUI/UX issue, so no rush on it. Great app though, definitely the best OpenVPN implementation for Android, hands down. Thank you immensely for all the hard work that's gone into it!
