Reading the public server list...

These are the servers the public server list shows right now. Volunteers run them and they come and go, so the numbers change. A listed server is not a promise that it works.

Features

Everything on one screen

Built for people who want a simple VPN and a few sharp tools next to it.

Country VPN

Pick a country, see every known server in it and connect with one tap. The VPN engine is built into the app, so there is no second app to install.

Automatic failover

A server that refuses the login, times out or does not answer is skipped automatically and kept out of view for a while.

Live speed and graph

See the connection timer, the download and upload speed and a live speed graph on Home. Ping and speed from relays are shown as reported.

DNS modes

AdBlocker, Family Protection or Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 from one drop-down, with backup providers and optional encrypted DNS. Filtering is best effort.

Pixel Hosts

Map a host name to an IP address for compatible apps through a local DNS-only VPN. Your rules stay on your phone.

Choose the apps

Send every app through the VPN, only the apps you tick, or every app except the ones you tick.

Kill switch guide

Step-by-step help to turn on Android's Always-on VPN and Block connections without VPN, plus a read-only check of what Android reports.

Good to know

The app does not make you anonymous: the relays are public servers run by volunteers. Ping and speed are what the server list reports. The Terms and the Privacy Policy are inside the app (Menu > Legal).

Licence and source code

DeadPixel VPN is free software: the app (the APK) is released under the GNU General Public License version 2, because the VPN engine inside it is GPL. DeadPixel's own source files are also available under the LGPL v2.1 or later.

Written offer: the source code is not published in an open repository. Anyone who has received the app can get the complete source code of their version, free of charge: write to DeadPixel on Discord, name the version number, and say how to reach you. This offer is valid for at least three years after each version was published.
