Conclusion: Winpoint follows the OS if the OS is configured to do IPv6 first if the host is reachable by IPv6 and IPv4. If only one of the two is available WinPoint uses that. All as expected.

Cool, which means it would use IPv6 by default here, since all my
systems are configured to try IPv6 first, before falling back to IPv4. Nice to see more IPv6 support in BBS related software.

Sure. Trying IPv6 first is what is more or less the default in almost
all cases. Winpoint does not yet support fall back to IPv4 but that
will be a matter of time.
I think there are some corner cases where this is the exception, but mostly, it's IPv6 first by default.
I have an Android app that doesn't like IPv6 enabled in the app on an
IPv4 only connection. It doesn't seem to fall back.

If a device is on an IPv4 only connection, it should not even try to connect by IPv6 but just use IPv4. In my dictionary "Fall back" is when an IPv6 connection seems possible and is tried but fails and IPv4 is next.
Anyway, I say that particular app is broken.
Yeah, it's weird. when the phone is on wifi, there's IPv6 available,
but when the wifi drops out, there's only an IPv4 connection.

I might try a bug report. :)

I think android has a problem there also..
My phone is permanently connected to mobile data with ipv6. Also when
wifi is on. If I connect to a ipv4-only wifi, the phone does not use
the ipv6 mobile connection which still is on.
