VPN Doesn't Disconnect After Force Quitting the App (iOS)

[DaviDecoder]

Hey there! I’ve found a problem with the app on iOS:

What happens:

1. The user is connected to the VPN and then force quits the app.
2. When the user opens the app again and clicks "Disconnect," it should stop the VPN. But the VPN doesn’t disconnect. The VPN is still running, even though it should be turned off.

So, after force quitting the app and reopening it, clicking "Disconnect" doesn’t turn off the VPN profile. It stays active when it should be turned off.

Can you check this out? Thanks!

@ccnnde @OsamaWork1 if you don't want to disconnect VPN on app termination just comment the below code and it will working fine.

+ (void)dispose { if (_cachedManager) { [_cachedManager.connection stopVPNTunnel]; } }

@commencementtech I think I did not explain the issue well enough.

1- After connecting the VPN, I force quit the app. The VPN doesn't disconnect which is FINE

2- I launch the app again. VPN is connected. I call RNSimpleOpenvpn.disconnect() but the VPN doesn't disconnect and stays connected. That is the bug

PS. If I call RNSimpleOpenvpn.connect() on app launch after force quit, and then call RNSimpleOpenvpn.disconnect() the VPN gets disconnected successfully
