Hello, I'd like to have my hypothetical Android app determine whether it is sending requests and receiving responses via Tor by way of Orbot -- either with Orbot capturing all traffic on the device, or the experimental per-app mode.
A naive way to achieve this is to poll a what-is-my-ip website, poll a website that provides a list of Tor exit nodes, and see if the ip address matches the exit node list. This approach has some significant privacy downsides. It also would not work if I wanted to configure my application to sometimes connect to .onion severs instead of clearnet. Is there any kind of inter-process communication or other mechanism that people are aware of that would allow my app to determine whether it has been successfully proxied through Orbot? Thanks, Kristov
