OpenVPN Connect is the official OpenVPN client app developed by OpenVPN Inc., the creators of the OpenVPN® protocol. Designed for use with OpenVPN’s zero-trust business VPN solutions, this app enables secure remote access to internal networks, cloud resources, and private applications.

Please try again with active network (China Version Only)

iOS of China Version iPhone blocks the Internet access connection of OpenVPN connect App! Many China friends who are using China Version iPhone encountered the same problem. However non China Version iPhone never has this problem.There was a solution to that problem in Version 3.0.2 of OpenVPN. The solution is that When we click “forgot password” in Private Tunnel section. OpenVPN will ask if you allow to have Internet access or not. If we click YES to allow. The problem can be solved perfectly. However, the version of 3.0.3 has removed the Private Tunnel Section. That means “forgot password “ option is gone. So there is no way for OpenVPN to ask if we allow internet access anymore...Is there any solution to allow OpenVPN connect to ask users to allow internet access again ? Waiting for the reply from OpenVPN connect developer. Thanks so much in advance!!
ON DEMAND CONNECTION PLEASE
PeterWan816
please add the on demand activation function to iOS and MacOS devices for better user experience. I have never encounter any difficulties when using the OpenVPN app until I used WireGuard. After experiencing the convenience of on demand activation, this app seems obsolete to me as it lack this basic feature. Please add it to the app so when I connected back into the hosting network, the vpn can be disconnected automatically to save resources on both the server and client.
UI improvement, support iPhone X screen

- Support a managed restricted mode enforced through mobile device management (MDM) platforms like Microsoft Intune or Jamf Pro.
- Block user actions including sign-in, sign-out, profile editing, and changing settings via MDM configurations.
- Enforce a permanent kill switch on the active profile to block unauthorized traffic automatically.
- Allow a one-time connection profile import before the restricted mode lock out takes effect.
- Fixed other minor issues.
