Thanks Mehdi. I'll take a look.

@Harsh,

Thank you for the clarification. I will reach out to both. I know that on macOS 
Catalina, Apple implemented new APIs for loading kernel modules now that the 
core of the OS is read-only. Not sure if they've done the same for iOS. Perhaps 
they'll announce that next month.

Let me see if I understand you correctly. Are you saying that if I take my 
rooted phone make the /kernels folder add the manifest.xml and corresponding 
version kernel, the regular Wireguard app in the Play Store will utilize it? 
I'm trying to make sure I follow.

Will it show this extended UI in Settings?

Thanks again,
Jose

Hi Marinez and the list,

There is a very nice open source app that can share the VPN connection of a 
rooted device with clients on Android. Here is the link:

Cheers,
