hideip.net is a V2Ray client and VLESS VPN for your own server. Import an Xray or V2Ray share link, a subscription URL, a WireGuard .conf or a QR code and connect: free, with no account. No server of your own? Connect through hideip.net locations with an optional subscription; the yearly plan starts with seven free days. Open source (GPLv3). No logs, no tracking SDKs. Stealth protocols make your traffic look like ordinary https, so it keeps working where ordinary VPNs are blocked. YOUR SERVERS, YOUR RULES Import a share link, a subscription URL or a WireGuard config file, or scan a QR code. Have a WireGuard .conf on your computer? Paste it at hideip.net/tools/wireguard-config to get a QR code and scan it in the app; the keys never leave your browser. Profiles stay on your device, encrypted, and are never uploaded anywhere. Nothing is locked to us. BUILT FOR CENSORED NETWORKS VLESS with Reality and xtls-rprx-vision, uTLS fingerprints, Hysteria2 and TUIC over QUIC, ShadowTLS: the protocols that keep working on mobile carriers and networks where WireGuard and OpenVPN are cut off. If your provider gives you a V2Ray or Xray link, it works here. SUPPORTED PROTOCOLS VLESS (Reality, xtls-rprx-vision), VMess, Shadowsocks, Trojan, Hysteria2, TUIC, AnyTLS, ShadowTLS, WireGuard, SOCKS5 and HTTP(S) proxies, plus subscription URLs (base64, plain link lists or YAML). Powered by the sing-box core. WORKS WITH YOUR PROVIDER'S PANEL If your provider runs 3x-ui, x-ui, Marzban, Remnawave or a similar panel, the links and subscriptions it generates import in seconds. If you have used another V2Ray or Xray client, you will feel at home. WHAT ELSE IS IN THE APP - Live status with your public IP, network and city - A world map of locations, with voting for the next one - Latency measured on every server - Reconnect on drop with alerts, location search, light and dark themes - Link a browser or another device: one subscription, every device PART OF hideip.net The app is one piece. The hideip.net browser extension shows your exit IP, blocks WebRTC leaks and checks proxy links before you import them. The site has free WireGuard tools and a link checker. Everything follows one idea: your traffic is yours. PRIVACY No email or phone number. Your own servers need no account; Premium uses a random account number instead of a sign-up. No analytics, ad or tracking SDKs. Your traffic, DNS and visited sites are not logged. The app sends three anonymous counters (opened, added a server, connected) once per install, with no identifier, and you can turn them off in Settings. The privacy policy is short and readable: https://hideip.net/privacy OPEN SOURCE The client is GPLv3 and the code is public: https://github.com/dataprimehk. What the app does is not a promise, it is checkable. OPTIONAL PREMIUM hideip.net also runs its own locations. A subscription unlocks all of them and adds Speed mode: WireGuard on hideip.net locations where the network allows it, with automatic stealth fallback. The yearly plan starts with seven free days. Bringing your own servers stays free forever. Premium runs on an account number: sign in with it on up to 5 devices, and one subscription covers them all.
Resolver Race

Your DNS resolver decides how fast every web page starts loading - and the one your network handed you may not be the quickest, or the most honest. Resolver Race finds out in a couple of minutes. It benchmarks dozens of public DNS resolvers from your iPhone, on the network you're actually using, and ranks them by real measured speed. RACES EVERY KIND OF DNS - Classic DNS over IPv4 and IPv6 - DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) - DNS-over-TLS (DoT) - Your current DNS server, included automatically for comparison THREE REAL-WORLD TESTS - Cached: a name the resolver already knows, for pure round-trip speed - Uncached: a name it has never seen, so it must do the full lookup - New .com: a domain that doesn't exist, timing the .com path MORE THAN JUST SPEED - Finds which resolvers are actually reachable before timing anything - Detects when your router answers in a resolver's place instead of the real thing - Checks DNSSEC validation, and whether it is genuinely enforced - Flags resolvers that redirect domains that don't exist to ad pages - Shows what each resolver blocks: ads, adult content, malware - Measures how close the content servers each resolver hands you really are BUILT TO BE TRUSTED Everything runs on your device. No accounts, no analytics, no servers of ours - results never leave your phone unless you export them yourself. FREE, WITH A ONE-TIME UPGRADE Free includes five resolvers, six queries per test and one run per race - enough to see whether your current DNS is holding you back. Resolver Race Pro is a single purchase, yours for life with no subscription: the full resolver catalogue, up to 60 queries per test, repeat runs up to 100 times for rock-solid averages, and all the trust, filtering and content-speed checks. Inspired by the classic desktop DNS benchmarks, rebuilt for iPhone.
