FR: One tap on main UI to connect tailnet for Android
mkevinstever opened this issue · comments
What are you trying to do?
Current, Android version have two buttons for two different features:
enable --> use exit node.
slide block --> connect to tailnet.
It's awful for some users. it's not user-friendly enough.
How should we solve this?
if it is possible, only need keep a button use to connect tailnet.
for select exit node, use second layer UI to do that, select none to disable. instead of need a button on main UI to disable or enable.
What is the impact of not solving this?
Actually, if not change this, it only affect users who don't skill for use phone. such as grandmother.
Anything else?
This Inspire from this article, I think it would be a great decision: https://tailscale.com/blog/reimagining-tailscale-for-ios
Hey @mkevinstever, what I'm hearing is:
- You want a button for connecting/disconnecting Tailscale.
- You do not want a toggle for the exit node, you want it to be a dropdown where selecting any exit node uses the selected exit node, and selecting "none" stop using any exit node.
On which version of the Android client are you on?

Yes, use select "none" to stop use any exit node, instead of use toggle "disable".
