Multihop now available on Android

To further increase your privacy and make your traffic harder to analyze, you can now route all your traffic through two servers instead of just one, directly in our Android app, version 2025.1 and newer.

Our multihop feature allows you to route traffic through multiple servers, creating a tunnel within a tunnel. This means that your traffic passes through two servers—an entry server and an exit server—before reaching its final destination.

By selecting servers in different jurisdictions or hosting providers, you make it slightly harder for anyone to trace your data back to you. Please note that depending on the location of the two servers, this could potentially degrade your network performance.

How

To activate multihop on Android, follow these steps:

• Go to Settings → Multihop 
• Turn on multihop by pressing the toggle.

Once activated, you can select your desired entry and exit locations by going back to the main view and opening the Switch location screen. You'll see two tabs at the top: Entry and Exit, where you can choose your locations accordingly.

Why

Routing your traffic through multiple servers in separate jurisdictions gives you a higher level of privacy and security, even if one server were to be compromised. Adversaries would need to launch timing attacks against the traffic in multiple locations in order to analyze your online usage.
