I know I can install orbot and select app by app to use socksv5 in the port 9050. But is there a way to have system wide onion routing in android without having to change the configuration for every app?

In Orbot, you have a “VPN mode” toggle, when enabling it, it will create an Android VPN connection which “torify” the traffic of all apps you have selected in the “Tor-Enabled Apps” section.
Unless this changed recently, Android only support a single active VPN connection at a time, so unfortunately this Orbot mode cannot be used in conjunction with a standard VPN.
Also if OP wants to make sure there is no traffic bypassing the VPN they should enable “Always-on VPN” and “Block connections without VPN” in the settings > VPN > Orbot options icon.
