I can't connect with my phone using wireguard. It kept saying "Initiating handshakes" in wireguard logs.

Have you taken any steps towards solving your issue?

  I don't know how to solve it since It doesn't show any problems during installation and setting up user. Only when connecting, I can't seem to connect anything.

Apparently, my vps doesn't have port opened for me. My mistake.
