A simple, free WireGuard VPN client: scan, import, and manage tunnels.
KabelWacht is a minimal, fully free-software WireGuard® client for Android.
It does one thing well: manage WireGuard tunnels and connect.
Features:
* Create, list, search, edit and delete WireGuard profiles.
* Import a configuration by scanning a QR code or opening a .conf file.
* Export a tunnel back to a standard wg-quick .conf file, protected by
device authentication — the file contains your private key.
* One-tap connect/disconnect with a per-tunnel switch.
* Toggle a tunnel from outside the app: launcher shortcuts, a home-screen
widget, or a Quick Settings tile.
* Run conditions: let a tunnel connect and disconnect by itself depending
on the network — only on Wi-Fi, every Wi-Fi except the ones you list,
only on chosen networks, never on mobile data or while roaming, or on
unmetered connections only.
* Always-on VPN support, including reconnecting after a reboot.
* A structured editor with Interface and Peer sections, with the complete
wg-quick file one tap away.
* Fully usable with a hardware keyboard — shortcuts for search, new
tunnel and save, and every control reachable by Tab and arrow keys.
* Userspace WireGuard backend — no root required.
Privacy and freedom:
* 100% free and open-source software (AGPL-3.0-or-later).
* No trackers, no analytics, no advertising.
* No Google Play Services or other proprietary dependencies.
* The only network connection made is your own WireGuard tunnel.
* Location permission is optional and asked for only if you set up Wi-Fi
network-name rules, because Android requires it to read Wi-Fi names.
Your location is never used or stored.
* Release builds are reproducible: anyone can rebuild the published APK
from source and get the same bytes.
Built on the official WireGuard tunnel library and the ZXing QR decoder.
