TrustTunnel

What TrustTunnel is for

TrustTunnel is a VPN client from AdGuard Software Limited for connecting to VPN servers you run yourself. The listing describes it as free, with no ads and no limits on servers or connections.

It suits people who have a server on a VPS, a cloud account or a home machine, or who want one, and who want their traffic routed through infrastructure they control.

Setting up your own VPN server

A built-in setup wizard walks you through configuring a server one step at a time. The listing names VPS hosts, cloud providers, home servers and corporate setups as places to host it.

Once the server is configured, you connect from your device with a single tap.

Connecting to several servers at once

Each server can be reached with one tap. The listing allows unlimited servers and simultaneous connections, so you can keep several endpoints set up and use more than one at a time.

Transport, DNS and traffic routing

TrustTunnel uses the HTTP/2 and QUIC protocols, which the developer presents as fast and low-latency. DNS can be set separately for each server, and AdGuard DNS is supported.

Routing profiles control how traffic is handled. The listing does not say more about how the profiles are set up.

Connection logs and open-source code

A real-time connection log is stored on your device, and the developer says the data does not leave it. The code is described as open-source, and the developer says the app collects no data.

AdGuard cites 17 years of privacy work behind the app.
