P2VPN for iPhone and iPad
P2VPN provides the subscription. A compatible third-party app connects your device to the VPN servers.
What you need
- An iPhone or iPad supported by the client’s current App Store version.
- Working Wi-Fi or mobile data and an active P2VPN trial or paid subscription.
- Your personal subscription link from your P2VPN account.
Install a compatible VPN client
Install INCY (recommended) or Happ from the App Store. Then open your P2VPN subscription link and add it to the installed app.
Copy your P2VPN subscription link
Open your account, then your subscription page. For manual import, copy the complete personal link without adding spaces or removing characters.
Use the backup subscription link provided by P2VPN if the main page cannot be reached. Do not replace the address with an unrelated client download link.
Import the subscription
Open the client from your subscription page
Select the add-to-app option and allow the browser to open your installed client.
Use manual import if needed
In the VPN app you chose, open the option to add a subscription from a URL or the clipboard. Paste the full subscription link and confirm.
Check the imported list
Wait for the server list to load. Select a server from your P2VPN subscription.
Enable VPN
Turn on the connection in the client. When iOS or iPadOS asks to add a VPN configuration, allow the request and complete any device authentication prompt.
Use the client to choose servers and reconnect. Desktop instructions for system proxy or TUN mode do not directly apply to the iOS interface.
Check the connection
Confirm that the client shows a connected status, then open a website in Safari. Check another app you intend to use as well. A connected indicator alone does not verify every app’s routing or DNS behavior.
If pages do not load, work through the checks below. For the limits of VPN protection, see the security page.
Troubleshooting on iPhone and iPad
VPN connects, but websites do not open
Disconnect briefly to check ordinary internet access. Reconnect, refresh your subscription configuration and try another server or connection method. If you changed routing or DNS settings, ask support to help check them.
The connection is slow on mobile data
Compare with Wi-Fi if available, then try another server or method. Signal quality and the mobile network’s route can affect performance. Avoid assuming the same server will perform equally on both networks.
The subscription does not update
Check that access is active in your account and that your internet connection works. Refresh the subscription in your VPN app. Use your backup link if the main subscription page is unavailable.
I can’t add the VPN configuration or start the VPN connection
Check that you approved the iOS VPN request. Disconnect any other active VPN, reopen the client and retry. If the problem continues, send support your iOS version, app version and the error message. Remove your personal subscription link from any message or screenshot you send.
