Hi, I am trying to connect to my Umbrel using Zap wallet. I have Orbot installed on my Android phone and followed the instructions. I have Zap added to the VPN list under Orbot and tried connecting Zap to my Umbrel after Orbot was up and runing. I just get an error saying - Tor connection failed. Please make sure that: - Orbot is in running, is in VPN mode and Zap is in Orbot’s list of activated apps. I also faced a similar issue connecting Sphinx chat app - it said it couldn’t connect to server. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you ---

It’s Orbot that is not working well. Keep restart orbot. Force close Zap app. Start Orbot, wait until is 100% boostrapped. Start Zap, wait a bit and will be connected. ---

Thank you, DarthCoin. I have tried that before. I even tried completely uninstalling Orbot and Zap several times and restarting the whole process. After Orbot hits 100% bootstrapped, how long should I wait before starting Zap? ---

Once is 100% just open Zap, even from the icon in Orbot VPN apps. ---

Thank you. I have tried that a few times before. Tried again, but seem to still be getting the same error. Not sure if there is anything else I can try to troubleshoot. ---

Try with Zeus wallet app. It has Tor integrated and works better. I know is ugly UI but is doing great job. ---
