Bug report

Describe your environment

  • Device: Motorola (I don't think it matters)
  • OS name and version: Android 12 (I don't think it matters)
  • IVPN app version: 2.10.5

Describe the problem

On iOS or desktop the Anti-tracker feature can be turned on or off anytime (while connected), with just one mouse click. On the latest Android version this requires to disconnect, and if in an hostile environment it requires the user to turn of the internet connection first, then disconnect from the iVPN server, then go to settings, then goto AntiTracker etc. etc. Same long sequence to turn it on again.
The apps for other systems show that this is not required, respectively can be solved otherwise.
For a user who does frequently have to change between ON and OFF, or who needs to change the block list for different usage, this is really quite unpleasant.

Thanks for considering a change, which I do not consider a simple "feature request".

Steps to reproduce:

just try toggle the AntiTracker switch - on main screen or even in the settings - while connected

Observed Results:

error message on screen
