Setting up OpenVPN on Apple iOS

Search for OpenVPN connect in the app store.

Download the configuration files from the link we provided in your setup email. Save them to a folder on your computer and extract the zip file there.

The easiest way to get them on your iDevice is to email them to yourself. You will have to email each file you wish to install separately. Below is what will show up in your email when you receive it:

NOTE:  Version 10.7 of OpenVPN Connect made changes to how the cyphers are enabled. If you have 10.7 please do the following, in addition to the above, to enable the cyphers.  Go to Settings – OpenVPN – Advanced and turn on Force – AES-CBC Ciphers.

If there is an issue, touch the status arrow to the right of ‘Status’ and it will show the log of the connection as shown below:
