An OpenVPN config file (.ovpn) containing addresses, keys, and encryption for connecting through the OpenVPN app. It creates a secure tunnel that helps bypass DPI/blocking and prevent DNS leaks. Connect to the VPN, then use a mobile proxy — this will make the connection more stable and reliable.


Where to download and how to install OpenVPN

Windows / macOS

  • Download the OpenVPN Connect application (the official client) for your OS from the OpenVPN site.

  • Install it like a regular program (Next → Agree → Install).

  • Alternative for Windows: OpenVPN Community (service + GUI).

iOS (iPhone/iPad)

  • Install OpenVPN Connect from the App Store.

Android

  • Install OpenVPN Connect from Google Play.

  • Alternative: OpenVPN for Android (community).

Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)

  • sudo apt update && sudo apt install openvpn network-manager-openvpn

  • In graphical environments, it's convenient to import the config via NetworkManager.


Get an OpenVPN config for your mobile proxy

Save the config to your computer or smartphone.



Connecting the OpenVPN config (.ovpn) for mobile proxies

Import the config file into the client:

  • OpenVPN Connect (Win/macOS): open the application → File / Import Profile → select .ovpn.

  • iOS: send the .ovpn file to the device (email/cloud/AirDrop) → "Open in" OpenVPN → ADD.

  • Android: open OpenVPN Connect → OVPN Profile → select the file.

  • Linux (NM): Network Settings → VPN → "Import from file" → select .ovpn.


By default, protection is provided via built-in encryption keys. However, for some configs you may be prompted to enter a login and password — enter them from the purchased mobile proxy.

Click Connect and wait for the status Connected.


After that you can configure the mobile proxies in your app using the following procedures:
