Is it any good?
Thanks.

‎Lancelot - VPN Remote

‎Lancelot allows you to turn on or off VPN clients on your ASUS router that are running Merlin firmware. As well as controlling your VPN clients from the app, you can also control them from a widget on your Home Screen or use Siri. You can also create shortcuts and turn on or off your VPN...

I'm not comfortable with entering SSH credentials in a random App, so I won't try it.

Also: seems to require login via password, while I prefer the more secure key option instead.

That’s literally what brought me here. (Whether or not the concern is warranted—I have no idea. Lol)

Does anyone have any alternatives they like? Or a comparable/related iOS widget shortcut/script?

Ios Shortcuts (and Android SSHbutton) allows you to execute shell commands from the app. I know it has been successfully used with Wireguard_Manager to turn vpn clients on/off and partly handle temporary policy routing via Wireguard_Manager addon "wgmExpo".

Should be possible for openvpn aswell as long as you can do it with shell commands

I was a little shocked to see what the desktop Apple-Mac system requirements are...limits it but keeps it easy to maintain
