Why a phone at home, not a data centre

The address your traffic comes from is the whole point.

A real home address

Commercial VPNs and rented servers give you a data-centre address. Streaming services, banks and ticketing sites often block those. Your traffic leaves through your own home line instead.

We carry none of it

We run no VPN servers. Your two phones connect directly to each other, and the tunnel between them is encrypted end to end.

For your own devices only

Only devices you have paired yourself can use your home line. There is no way to offer it to strangers, and your line never carries anyone else's traffic.

What you need

Two Android devices and your existing home internet. Nothing to rent.

A spare Android phone

Left at home, plugged into power, on your home Wi-Fi. An old phone you no longer use is enough.

The phone you carry

The Android device you take with you. The two are paired once, by scanning a code.

Nothing else

No server to rent, no subscription to a VPN provider, no router settings to change.

Setting it up

The two phones need to be in the same room only once.

  1. Set up the phone at home

    Install homeVPN on the phone you will leave at home and switch it to home mode.

  2. Set up the phone you carry

    Install homeVPN on the phone you carry.

  3. Pair them with a code

    Pair the two by scanning a code shown on the phone at home.

  4. Connect

    Tap connect. You are on your home line.

Good to know

What we would want to know before signing up.

The phone at home has to stay powered and online for you to connect. Your speed is limited by the upload speed of your home line. Some mobile networks make a direct connection impossible; when that happens the app tells you why instead of failing silently.
