Add Control Wireguard Tunnels Permission

[NativeAlien]

Both automate and tasker have these permissions & It would be an amazing addition to Macrodroid to have this permission

com.wireguard.android.permission.CONTROL_TUNNELS

built in natively so we don't have to rely on either one for this purpose.

A native action based on this permission would be ideal if possible, since WG isn't going anywhere and has been widely integrated everywhere including the Linux kernel, so why not make it a part of Macrodroid's excellent action options?

What does everyone think?

There seems to be no doubt that WireGuard is getting a lot of attention, but the tunnel can still be turned on and off in its current state.
Since some people do not use it, it is doubtful that it should be implemented as a standard feature.

Control WireGuard with Macros

Hello, is it somehow possible to control WireGuard with macros? I want it to automatically connect to my home when I leave my wifi and disconnect when I enter it. I have this app installed: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wireguard.android

The app from the thread meantioned by Dimlos, is sadly, not working anymore…
so please implement the function like tasker did for example.

If you can't use it, is there a source somewhere or did it not work when you tried it?
The tunnel on/off still worked where I tried the macro I made before.

What device are you using ? I'm not exactly sure how this works but i think that might make a difference in how it works - and where you installed the required apps from.

Oh nevermind after a reboot it is working.

But I think it would be nice if this feature ist direkt implemented, so we do not need a third-party app.

I'm on Android 13 on a pixel 7 pro.

Reboot fixes pretty much all weird problems
