Redshift disables when I connect to VPN (VPN to Japan)

Good day. I have been using redshift for a few weeks now and it is great. My problem is, everytime I connect to VPN (from PH to JP), it turns off…Any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance

It sounds like it’s using your IP address for location. You can specify a location manually, see the documentation:
