Discovered today that GrapheneOS (and its native apps) will not update when a VPN is in place on the phone. Aurora Store and F-Droid will update, but Graphene system updates and default app store don't work over the VPN.
Had been wondering why I hadn't received updates in recent weeks to the core OS, but most apps were updating successfully. Disabled the VPN temporarily and GrapheneOS updated itself, then re-enabled the VPN.

Both our App Store and System Updater permit any network by default. Both are fully compatible with using a VPN. If you set configured them to only use an Unmetered network and the VPN marks itself as Metered when on an Unmetered network, that would explain the problem. A huge portion of the GrapheneOS userbase are using VPNs and having no issues with updating the OS and apps. This indicates an issue with your VPN app or the configuration of the device with it.
You're doing it wrong.
