New Blokada v5.2 Plus on Android.

I can’t tell what information out there about Blokada and wireguard is now current.

Here is my question:

Does Blokada 5.2 Plus use wireguard as a built in feature, or do I have to install wireguard separately?

And, if I have to install wireguard separately, how must I configure Blokada and wireguard so they work together? And, do I have to have the wireguard app running while Blokada is running?

Is this still valid, do I need to go through these steps?

Hi there, welcome to our community!

The WireGuard protocol are used internally for providing the VPN feature when you activate Blokada Plus.

You only need to activate and select a Plus location
