I haven’t found a workaround for this and it’s been there for almost two years. Yeah, it’s a shame.

Why is location access required when trusting a Wi-Fi network?
+
+
Starting from iOS 12 (or 13?), iOS has restricted what apps can learn about Wi-Fi networks. Location access has become a requirement to access the SSID of the connected Wi-Fi, which is crucial to add it to trusted networks. That’s why, starting from iOS app 1.9.0, Passepartout will prompt you for a location permission when trusting a Wi-Fi network.

I’m unable to add my Wi-Fi to trusted networks

Starting from iOS 12 (or 13?), iOS has somewhat restricted what apps can learn about Wi-Fi networks. The effect of this is the inability to add the connected Wi-Fi network to trusted networks, be it with a bogus “Wi-Fi” or “WLAN” SSID name, or with the alert “You are not connected to any Wi-Fi network.”.
+
In Passepartout for iOS up to 1.8.1, the effect of the new location access requirement is the inability to trust the connected Wi-Fi network. The app will either trust a bogus “Wi-Fi” or “WLAN” SSID name, or present the alert “You are not connected to any Wi-Fi network.”.

To work around this issue, you should trust the network while the VPN is enabled and connected through such network. I will try to restore former behavior in future versions of Passepartout, or at least add an informational footer below the “Trusted networks” section.
+
To work around this issue:
+
+
+
Trust the network while the VPN is enabled and connected through such network.
+
Upgrade Passepartout to the latest version (much, much better option).
+
The VPN fails with “Auth failed” or immediately disconnects with “Encryption failed”
