Free VPN runs on every major platform. Pick the device you want to install on:

## Mobile

| Platform | Store | App ID |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **iOS / iPadOS** | [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id1050171910) | `1050171910` |
| **Android** | [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.freevpn) | `org.freevpn` |

## Desktop

| Platform | Method | Link |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **macOS** (12 Monterey+) | Mac App Store | [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/id1050171910) |
| **macOS** (CLI + GUI) | One-line install | `curl -fsSL https://freevpnapp.org/install.sh \| sh` |
| **Windows 10/11** | PowerShell installer | `iex "& { $(iwr https://freevpnapp.org/install.ps1) }"` |
| **Linux** (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch, Raspberry Pi) | One-line install | `curl -fsSL https://freevpnapp.org/install.sh \| sh` |

After the one-line installer runs, type `freevpn gui install` to add the desktop window. See [the CLI page](https://freevpnapp.org/cli/) for full details.

## Servers and headless boxes

Linux, macOS, and Windows servers can run Free VPN as a background service — no GUI required. Same one-line installer. Survives reboots, managed by your OS the same way Docker is. Perfect for cloud VMs, CI runners, and Raspberry Pis.

## Verify your install

Every release ships a `.sha256` sidecar. The one-line installer verifies it automatically. To verify manually:

```bash
curl -fsSL -O https://freevpnapp.org/downloads/LATEST/freevpn-linux-amd64.tar.gz
curl -fsSL -O https://freevpnapp.org/downloads/LATEST/freevpn-linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
shasum -a 256 -c freevpn-linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
```

## What you get on every platform

- **Regions and Services.** Choose the locations and activities available inside Free VPN, including AI, social, streaming, live TV, gaming, music and sports.
- **Current installers.** Use the links on this page rather than third-party mirrors.

## Protected in 30 seconds

2. **Click install** — store install or one-line script, whichever you prefer.

That's it. No signup flow. No email verification. No card.

## FAQ

### Do I need to make an account?

No. Free VPN requires absolutely nothing — no account, no email, no phone number.

### Is it really free?

Yes. A free, ad-supported option is available without entering payment details. Optional subscriptions and in-app purchases are also offered. Exact plan terms vary by platform and region, so check the relevant store or download screen before starting a trial or purchase.

### Does the desktop CLI work the same as the mobile app?

The CLI provides terminal commands, structured JSON output, region controls, and diagnostics for supported desktop and server environments. Mobile apps use a touch interface. Check the [CLI documentation](https://freevpnapp.org/cli/) for its current commands and supported systems.

### Will it work on my old Mac / old Windows / weird Linux distro?

- **Mac:** any Mac on macOS 12 Monterey or newer — both Intel and Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4).
- **Windows:** Windows 10 (October 2018 update) or Windows 11.
- **Linux:** anything with a modern glibc and systemd — Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12, Fedora, Arch, Raspberry Pi OS, and most cloud VMs.
