The iOS documentation seems to suggest this may not be necessary, though I'm not well versed in the iOS API.

Setting up a double VPN client/server system seems unnecessarily complicated to me. I wonder what drove Mullvad to this solution.

Okay, I just dove into wireguard‘s source code and it looks like I made wrong assumptions. When I used mullvad or wireguard, it always showed „127.0.0.1“ as the server, however, according to wireguard‘s source, this is just set as a placeholder. I assume that mullvad used this code to implement their app too.
