The error suggests DNS issues.

Have you enabled encrypted DNS setting in Windows?
if yes, then turn it off.

You can find the setting in:
Settings -> Network & Internet -> Your NIC -> DNS server assignment.

If you tried everything about DNS then the app itself is having issues.

I've taken a look at google store to see what this app is about.
An alternative that sets system wide proxy and let's you choose from servers world wide is:

pshiphon 3 is open source and is used for censorship circumvention.
It can also be used as VPN although it's not strictly VPN but a proxy service.
