Picture is not clear, but it looks like Brunfelsia. But Brunfelsia is a shrub not vine.
Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow & Lady of the Night are two common varieties of this plant.

So the picture you presented on 29th April is not of your plant.
There are two varieties I have bushes of one with smaller flower and leaves.

Grow them under filtered sun, do well under bright light no direct sun. I have killed some in full all day sun.

I agree. Filtered light is best. Mt shrub is doing much better after moving to filtered light.
