Share VPN connection over Android hotspot? - eviltoast

I have a home setup with private services and Wireguard to phone in from outside, and would sometimes like to be able to access some of these services from devices that don’t have their own Wireguard client like an eBook reader.

Ideally, I would have Wireguard on my Android phone, create a WiFi hotspot and allow other devices to use that Wireguard connection. Out of the box this doesn’t work. Does anybody know how to achieve it?

    There is an app called Every Proxy. It doesn’t need root. You just need to adjust proxy settings on your client devices.

      This looks promising, but I can’t get it to work.

      Wireguard, even though they explicitly mention it in their tutorials, doesn’t have an allow/block list for me, so I can’t allow the proxy network bridge. Curious those settings are gone. Too bad!

        You don’t need to do any configuration.

        Just connect to your vpn, start every proxy and confgure your clients.
