I have seen a couple of historic posts asking similar questions but nothing indicating any official position or offering a solution. I'm using miui rom and there isn't google play on my Android phone. So, i cannot download openvpn connect from Google Play store. is it possible to install official OpenVPN Connect without using the Google Play store? Maybe there is official APK which is hosted by openvpn, please share the link. I see on the openvpn.net website shares google play link only. If not, is it safe to download/install openvpn connect app from other sources like https://apkpure.com/, https://www.androidapksbox.com/, etc? Thanks,

Unfortunately there is no official APK direct download link. OpenVPN Connect is offered via PlayStore and Amazon Marketplace. Installing an apk from a third party service is always risky because you don't know if the apk is the official one or it was modified.

[/quote] That is true - in general. But it is not true if you download an apk directly from the developer (in this case OpenVPN). It would definitely be the official apk. I'm surprised there is no official apk link. Usually a developer provides such a link so that people can directly use an apk without being routed trough an app store. So i suggest OpenVPN provide such a link.

After an internal discussion I realized (I did not know yet) that we maintain some standalone downloads. You can find it here: https://swupdate.openvpn.org/downloads/connect/openvpn-connect-android-1.1.27.apk

i have seen many websites providing open vpn SPAM DELETED... , are they even safe or if not why can't open vpn create their official site

There are some alternative app stores like yalp store that download the Alps directions from the google app store. Haven't heard anything bad about that one

Thank you for this information. Is there an updated version of the standalone download available? Or is 1.1.27.apk the latest? Thank you.

There are several online sites that provides and original app of Open VPN. I've downloaded [url=https://fineapkapps.com/2019/05/05/download-hotspot-shield-premium-apk-hotspot-shield-mod-apk/]Hotspot Shield Premium APK[/url], yesterday from an external site. It works fine. I am also using it right now. I think you should download from external site like fineapkapps.com etc. It's the site where I downloaded it. You should find there too. If you won't find there then you should try apkpure site etc. Hope my answer will help you for sure.

There are multiple sites that provides the official app of OpenVPN like apkpure or fineapkapps. I've recentally downloaded [url=https://fineapkapps.com/download-hotspot-shield-premium-apk/]Hotspot Shield Premium APK[/url] and it is working fine for me.

Where can I find an updated standalone apk?

Official direct download of OpenVPN Connect APK?

Android7

Hello. I have a tablet with Android 7 operating system. Unfortunately, I cannot download the OpenVPN Connect app from Google Play because the latest version of the app requires Android 9 or newer.
I kindly ask you to provide a link to the latest version of the app(APK file) that supports Android 7 here.
I believe this will be helpful not only to me.
As far as I know, OpenVPN Connect version 3.3.0 supports Android versions 4 and above.
Thank you.

JosephS wrote Hello,
For the latest Android Connect app (3.3.4) there is an official link for download:
https://swupdate.openvpn.net/downloads/connect/openvpn-connect-3.3.4(9290).apk
However, for future releases there may no longer be an official .apk download link for distribution.
So i would advise downloading the app from Google playstore.

Good afternoon.
Thank you for this link. But why OpenVPN command can't created page wit links for download apk files signed with GPG and with calculated SHA sums?

Today I asked support why? And I received the answer:

We distribute the official installer exclusively through authorized platforms such as Google Play Store and Apple App Store. We do not provide APK file from any other sources other than these.

But this answer doesn't look convincing to me. Because I can download community signed windows version directly from site https://openvpn.net/community-downloads/
I think this way sufficiently secured, because it excluded third party company in delivery chain.
