Setup Wireguard on Android

Things to Consider:

1. You have a working internet connection
2. An android device (Smartphone, Tablet etc.)
3. Own a premium PureVPN account (If you do not already own one, you can buy a subscription from 👉 here).

We’re so excited to announce that PureVPN has now added support for WireGuard! This means users can now use this method of joining the VPN manually by using both WireGuard and IPSec. As most users prefer WireGuard over other security protocols for its encryption strength, ease-of-use, and speed, it made sense that PureVPN would add this method of joining the network.

Wondering how you set it up? Follow the instructions below 👇
