Managing Apple "Connect On Demand"
I have enabled "Connect On Demand" so the VPN will connect automatically whenever it is able. Most Apple users will want to enable "Connect On Demand", but if you do then simply disabling the VPN will not cause it to stay disabled; it will just "Connect On Demand" again. To disable the VPN you'll need to disable "Connect On Demand".
On iOS, you can turn off "Connect On Demand" in Settings by clicking the (i) next to the entry for your Algo VPN and toggling off "Connect On Demand." On macOS, you can turn off "Connect On Demand" by opening System Preferences -> Network, finding the Algo VPN in the left column, uncheck the box for "Connect on-demand", and clicking Apply.
