Hi community, I need your help. I can't seem to find the way to add PPTP VPN onto the vpn settings. Is there something I am missing about? This is to connect to my workplace remotely. So i can't just use a third party client.

Just did a quick Google. Apparently, Google removed support for obselete and old VPN protocols like PPTP in android 13. Not Samsung phones issue after all.

Hmmm, strange indeed. Checked on my Note 10 and PPTP option is available but, on my S22 Ultra, options available is exactly as what you've shared.

Aw, thanks for your help! So I guess PPTP is obsolete. Need to find a workaround then.

PPTP is less secured protocol, hence reason Google exclude it in the latest 13.
Anyways, if you feel my explanation helps, appreciate it much if you could click on the 3 dots and accept the solution.
