No iOS app during the beta

On iPhone and iPad, Apple is the only way in, and it requires an enrolled Apple developer account that I do not have yet. No App Store, no TestFlight, no manual install: the beta runs on macOS, Windows, Linux and Android.

All platforms

The Windows packages are x64 only: on an ARM64 machine the installer refuses to start. The macOS package is universal, Intel and Apple Silicon.

Latest beta version: v1.1.29

On Android, the app installs from a direct APK download (no store). Allow installing from this source when your phone asks.

What happens next?

  1. Your key creates itself

    On first launch, the app generates your access key on your device and shows you a secret phrase. That key is your account: nothing is sent to my servers.

  2. Your free time is already there

    The beta app attaches a prepaid voucher automatically when the account is created. No code to type, no bank card.

  3. Connect

    Pick a country, start the tunnel. Leak protection is built in: if the tunnel drops, traffic is cut rather than exposed.

Write down your secret phrase. Really.

Put it on paper and keep it safe. If you lose it, nobody can recover it, not even me: it exists nowhere but with you. There is no "forgot password" button: an account nobody can hand back to you is also an account nobody can seize.

An app that does not start from scratch

The Warren app is a fork of Mullvad's open-source app: I keep its battle-tested architecture and network protections (traffic lockdown, leak blocking, system-wide tunnel) and replace the VPN backend with my WarrenGuard protocol.

The code is released under the GPL-3.0 license.
