Under the current conditions in Iran, DNS tunneling does not establish a connection. Other methods also connect only with great difficulty. Additionally, the delay in the loading indicator when disconnecting and reconnecting the connection is quite frustrating and should be addressed.

Thank you for the comment. We are tuning the DNS Tunnel with new settings that we expect to make it useful soon.

As for the delay / loading indicator, this is necessary to ensure the Tor service is fully started/shutdown. Many people try to start/stop it too quickly, causing crashes.
