Connection
VPN won’t connect
Start here if the app stays on Connecting or cannot set up the VPN.
- Check Server status. Choose an online location in the app. A location marked Coming soon is not available yet.
- If the app stays on Connecting for about a minute, stop that attempt. Choose Disconnect if a connection is active, then check that an ordinary website loads.
- If normal internet does not work, reconnect to Wi-Fi or try another network. Complete any Wi-Fi sign-in page first.
- Open Elsewhere VPN, check that you are signed in with an active plan, then press Connect. Approve the system’s VPN permission prompt if shown.
- If it still fails, disconnect, close and reopen the app, then retry once. A work, school, or public network may block VPN connections; try another network you are allowed to use.
