🪜 Steps

  1. Install v2rayNG

    Download the latest .apk from v2rayNG releases. Install it (Android may ask you to allow "Install unknown apps" for your browser). v2rayNG is also on Google Play in some regions.

  2. Copy the subscription URL

    On the homepage, long-press the v2rayN / v2rayNG URL and select Copy link. This is the v2ray-base64 URL.

  3. Add it as a subscription group

    Open v2rayNG. Tap Subscription group setting+. Name it, paste the URL into URL, leave other fields default, tap .

  4. Update subscriptions

    Back on the main screen, tap Update subscriptions (no proxy). After a few seconds you'll see the free nodes listed.

  5. Test one and connect

    Tap any server row, then tap the big V button at the bottom right to start the VPN. Android will ask for VPN permission once — tap OK. The V turns green when connected.

  6. Verify the country

    Open a browser and visit ipinfo.io. The shown country should match the node. If it still shows your home IP, tap V again to disconnect then reconnect.

💡 Tips & Troubleshooting

Should I use per-app VPN?

For casual browsing, no — default (global) works fine. If you want to keep banking or local apps off the VPN, enable Settings → Per-app proxy and exclude them.

How do I find the fastest server?

Tap Real ping test. v2rayNG will measure each server. Sort by ping, pick the lowest.

One server stopped working

Tap it and pick a different one from the same country. Free nodes rotate — we refresh the list every hour.

Can I use v2rayNG on Android TV?

Yes — install via a sideloader or adb. Navigation is a bit awkward with a remote; consider Clash Meta for Android TV instead if you have issues.
