The catalogue snapshot includes 1 enabled profiles labelled China. Listed cities: Shenzhen. These are app labels, not an independent verification of physical hosting or successful traffic.
City names describe labels in the app's catalogue. Some profiles use virtual locations. Check the exit country with more than one IP lookup if the country matters for your task.
An email account is not required to connect in the app. Device identifiers still help restore balances, manage rewards and prevent abuse; no registration does not mean no data processing.
The app processes device identifiers, time and referral records, connection diagnostics and support information to operate the service. Advertising and Firebase services have their own data practices. Read the Privacy Policy and use the app's advertising privacy controls.
The app provides a daily VPN allowance. Optional rewarded videos, referrals and eligible in-app rewards can add time. Check your balance and the current reward terms in the app; installing it does not automatically give unlimited connection time.
Configured profiles are shown separately from working-tunnel checks. Availability can change after the snapshot; the app has the latest selection.
Locations, providers and profiles can change. Use the latest list in the app. A listed location is not a promise that a profile will connect on every network or that every website will accept its exit IP.
Speed and connection time depend on your network, server load and the route. Test a nearby location for everyday browsing. If traffic does not work, disconnect and try another listed profile.
The current app uses OpenVPN. Encryption and connection options depend on the selected server profile. The app does not currently offer WireGuard or IKEv2.

Streaming services and other websites can restrict VPN exits. A successful VPN connection does not guarantee access to a particular service, catalogue or account. Follow the website's rules and check access yourself.
After connecting, open the IP-check tool and confirm that pages load. IP-geolocation databases can disagree about countries and cities. A city label alone does not prove where a server is physically hosted.
Check Android compatibility and install from Google Play or the official download page. Open the app and review any system VPN permission prompt.
Open the server list and choose a listed profile. Wait for the connection result, then try loading a normal HTTPS website.
Check the exit IP and country. If the result is wrong or traffic stops, try another profile and repeat the check. A connected status alone is not proof of working internet traffic.

China's digital ecosystem is largely self-contained. WeChat (1.3B users), Alipay, Taobao, Douyin (TikTok China), and Xiaohongshu (RED) are platforms that function best with Chinese IP addresses. Payment processing, content libraries, and social features vary by region. For Chinese citizens abroad — students, workers, and immigrants — a Chinese VPN maintains connection to their digital life back home.
China has the world's largest digital economy with unique platforms:
The Chinese Super League (CSL) features massive clubs like Shanghai Port, Beijing Guoan, and Guangzhou FC. The CBA (Chinese Basketball Association) is one of Asia's top basketball leagues. CCTV-5 and Migu Sports broadcast matches with Chinese commentary that's geo-restricted outside China. China's Olympic performances are covered extensively on domestic channels unavailable internationally.
Access iQIYI and Youku's China-exclusive drama libraries — many top shows aren't available on international versions.
Access Taobao and 1688.com wholesale marketplace with Chinese IP for better prices and full product selection.
Play Honor of Kings and access Genshin Impact's Chinese server with exclusive content and earlier updates.
Our Beijing server provides a Chinese IP address for accessing China-exclusive content from abroad. Note: This server helps users outside China access Chinese content. It routes through mainland Chinese networks providing authentic IP addresses for platform access and content unlocking.
Paid VPNs charge $8-12/month for Chinese servers. FreeAndroidVPN provides identical access to all Chinese content completely free. Our Beijing server delivers the same streaming, privacy protection, and banking access as premium competitors.
