Notice anything different, Android users? A totally re-engineered and re-imagined ExpressVPN app is here, and, without hyperbole, it’s the best app we’ve ever produced. Stronger, faster, smarter: It’s crammed full of new features that we can’t wait for you to use, with even more to come in the weeks ahead.

1. The widget is back!

Due to popular demand, the widget is back for good!

You can use the widget to connect and disconnect the VPN, change location, or check the status of your connection. All without opening the ExpressVPN app!

2. Split tunneling

Split tunneling lets you select which apps will use the VPN and which apps won’t when your device is connected to ExpressVPN.

3. Brand new app design

The slick new interface was designed from the ground up to make it easier to navigate. Whether you’re a VPN novice or a seasoned protocol pro, the new app does exactly what you need, in fewer clicks.

4. Faster than ever

Connecting to your chosen VPN location is now lightning quick, so you’re protected and ready to surf the web, or stream videos, in practically no time at all. The app also launches in record time.

5. In-app shortcuts get you where you want to be, fast!

The new design features a tool that allows you to securely and quickly launch your favorite apps and websites after connecting to ExpressVPN.

Easily customize the shortcut bar to include any app and website you wish!

6. Improved connection reliability

The ExpressVPN connection is now more robust than ever before. The app works hard in the background to make sure you stay connected to the VPN, whatever you’re doing, and wherever you are.

7. One-tap location swap

The latest app features direct access to your most recent locations, making it easy to switch VPN locations with one tap.

If you use one VPN location for streaming videos at home, and another for privacy at work, you can now effortlessly switch between them all without leaving the app home screen.

8. It’s easy to find new VPN locations

The new intuitive design means you can find and connect to your preferred VPN location in seconds.

9. Quick access to tools and diagnostic information

If you need diagnostic information in a pinch, it’s now just a couple of clicks away. Same goes for the IP Address Checker, DNS Leak Test, and WebRTC Leak Test tools.

10. New in-app messages
