How to detect programatically if traffic is going through VPN without using intent to connect to VPNService. Is there some system call?

    This works :

    private boolean checkVPN() {
        ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) this.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        return cm.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_VPN).isConnectedOrConnecting();
    }

    It is possible to check it in Android API 21 an higher, but it seems doesn't work (on nexus 5 @ 5.0.1, nexus 7 @ 5.0.2). Why its not working?

    Snippet of new API for check it (and all traffic is routed by vpn if connected):

    @Inject
    boolean checkVPN(ConnectivityManager connMgr) {
        //don't know why always returns null:
        NetworkInfo networkInfo = connMgr.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_VPN);
    
        boolean isVpnConn = networkInfo == null ? false : networkInfo.isConnected();
        return isVpnConn;
    }

    I guess for most use-cases you want to check if the actively used network is using VPN instead of if just any network available is using VPN.

    connectivityManager.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_VPN)
    

    ... is returning a NetworkInfo for an available VPN Network. This might not be the active Network! Instead you could use the following snippet to test if the active Network is using VPN:

    Network activeNetwork = connectivityManager.getActiveNetwork();
    NetworkCapabilities caps = connectivityManager.getNetworkCapabilities(activeNetwork);
    boolean vpnInUse = caps.hasTransport(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_VPN);

    You can detect VPN with following code in android. Code will work in new and older version of android. Below code is in Kotlin.

        class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    
        override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    
            if(checkVPNStatus()) {
                Log.d("VPN-RAJ", "is VPN Connected YES")
            } else {
                Log.d("VPN-RAJ", "is VPN Connected NO")
            }
        }
    
    
        private fun checkVPNStatus(): Boolean {
            val connectivityManager = this.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE) as ConnectivityManager
    
            return if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
                val network = connectivityManager.activeNetwork
                val capabilities = connectivityManager.getNetworkCapabilities(network)
                Log.d("VPN-RAJ", "in New Android Version")
    
                capabilities!= null && capabilities.hasTransport(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_VPN)
    
            } else {
                Log.d("VPN-RAJ", "in Old Android Version")
    
                connectivityManager.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_VPN)!!.isConnectedOrConnecting
            }
    
    
        }
    
    
    }

    The Android OS is aware of when a VPN connection is active (as it shows an icon in the status bar for the duration of a VPN connection) but there is no public API method (which would appear on the VpnService) to check for an active connection.

    Two solutions occur. If you are dealing with a specific situation where you know the network topology, run 'ping' to see if a particular IP address is available - use System.exec. the ping command is present on Android devices with stock ROMs, I've used it as part of a solution to to provide a more granular view of the state of a data connection (ip address not allocated, ip address allocated but can't access the internet, can access the internet)

    A better solution would be to run a traceroute instead and analyse the output. I've not checked if traceroute is present on Android devices with stock ROMs, I'll edit this answer later with more complete information.
