IKEv2 · R‑VPN · Android

Step 1

1. Download

On Android IKEv2 is set up through the strongSwan VPN Client app — install it from Google Play. If the store is unavailable, the APK is in the “Useful links” block of the dashboard.

Step 2

2. Adding a connection

Open strongSwan and press “ADD VPN PROFILE” in the top-right corner.

Step 3

3. Entering connection detail

Fill in the profile: “Server” — the address from the IKEv2 list in the dashboard, “VPN Type” — “IKEv2 EAP (Username/Password)”, “Username” and “Password” — from the “Connection details” block. Leave “CA certificate → Select automatically” ticked and save the profile.

Step 4

4. Connection

Tap the profile you created — Android asks once for VPN permission, after which the status changes to “Connected”. Create several profiles with different servers so countries can be switched.

To avoid picking servers blindly, use our Radar service — radar.rvpn.online: it shows which servers are up right now and how fast they respond (sign in with your VPN login and password).

If something does not work out, message our online consultant — the turquoise rocket icon in the bottom-right corner. We will help you and answer your questions.
