RunVPN
A one-tap VPN for Android
RunVPN encrypts your connection on any Wi-Fi or mobile network. Tap the big button and the app finds a working server for you, or pick a country yourself when you need a particular one.
- On Google Play
- Free plan to try
- Android 7.0 and later
What the app does
One tap to connect
Tap Connect and RunVPN chooses a working server. If a server stops responding, the app moves you to a backup on its own.
Choose a country
Let the app pick a location for you or choose a country from the list. Premium opens every location.
Split tunneling
Choose which apps go through the VPN and which use your regular connection, which is handy for local services.
Safer public Wi-Fi
On café, hotel and airport networks your traffic stays encrypted, so other people on the same Wi-Fi can’t read it.
Add a device by QR code
Show a QR code in Settings and sign in on a new phone or your TV by scanning it, with no passwords to type.
Quick sign-in
Sign in with Google or an email code. Your account and subscription stay with you when you change phones.

RunVPN does not record the sites you visit, your DNS queries or the content of your traffic. The limited account and connection data we keep is described in the Privacy Policy.
