How to Use the OpenVPN Connect App on Your Android Device to Connect to NordVPN Servers
Android offers APIs to developers that allow them to create virtual private networks (VPNs). These apps are able to offer VPN protocols that the built-in client can’t support, and can help you connect to an VPN service without complex configuration.
This article explains how you can make use of the OpenVPN app on your Android device to connect to NordVPN servers. This article also shows how to manually configure the connection using the NordVPN application and an OpenVPN Profile. This method is more complex but it allows you to have greater control over the quality of your connection as well as mobile data.
To begin to begin, download the OpenVPN Connect app from the Google Play Store. You will then need to obtain the OpenVPN configuration files from your VPN service provider. These configs are tagged with a.ovpn extension file and are available from the VPN provider’s website or via their live chat support. Once you’ve downloaded the config files, transfer them to your Android device (or PC). You can download directly to your device or download an app such as ZArchiver.
Once you’ve imported your OpenVPN configuration files, launch the OpenVPN app and tap “+” to add the new VPN profile. Select a server then tap “Connect”. Once connected, the tunnel secures all Internet traffic to the server. The app shows the status and other details of the connection in the Status tab. The app http://openvpnandroid.com/total-av-review-is-it-any-good/ allows you to keep the VPN connection active even when it is not being used.
