Before installing, confirm the APK source, package name, and Android system requirements.

Install the APK and make your first connection on Android

Verify the APK architecture and source, and grant only the permissions needed for installation, VPN access, and background activity.

01

Choose the right APK

Most recent Android phones can use the arm64-v8a build. If you cannot determine the architecture, choose the universal package provided by the project. Do not install repackaged APK files from unknown sources.

02

Complete the installation and revoke permission

Temporarily allow the current browser or file manager to install unknown apps when prompted. After installation, turn off that permission and verify the app name, package name, and version.

03

Import a configuration and allow VPN access

Import your own configuration, select a node, and approve the system VPN request on the first connection. If the connection drops in the background, check battery optimization, background activity, and notification permissions.

Android APK download and installation FAQs

Most recent Android phones use arm64-v8a. A universal package supports more architectures but is usually larger. Follow the device-architecture guidance on the project's release page when available.
