I have a laptop and a desktop-based-server on a 192.168.1.x segment on my network. I want to setup Tailscale between them.

Will it be bad if Tailscale connects while my laptop is local, on 192.168.1.x network?

Can I make it automatically connect via Tailscale when away and via the local network when home?

How can I best test the Tailscale network while I am at home?

Yes, it has a start up service in windows and linux. I can tell you the android app doesn’t start automatically, you need to access it each time you restart your device. I don’t know for iOS.

Cool - I probably won’t be using it on my Android phone. I keep it regularly copied to my workstation.

Same for iOS with the added pain that iOS will kill the background process if you don’t open it back up from time to time.

Edit: spelling
