VPMKS / User guide
Make it yours
Themes, icons, a compact header and advanced network options.
Appearance and language
Choose Light, Dark or Midnight Cyan in appearance settings. The system option follows your device’s appearance. Set the app language to Russian, English or your device setting.
On compatible iOS versions, the interface uses Liquid Glass. Older versions and reduced-transparency settings use an adapted appearance. The app respects system text size and accessibility settings.
App icon offers Shield or Classic when icon switching is supported on the device. This setting is unavailable on Android TV.
Home screen
- Compact VPN button shrinks the header as you scroll down. It returns to full size when the list reaches the top. Turn the option off to keep the full-sized control.
- Server description displays the provider’s text instead of protocol details when the subscription includes it.
- Subscription collapsing and the memory monitor let you choose how much information appears on the home screen.
Tests and updates
Connection settings include the server test method, test URL and timeout. TCP is the initial server test method. GET and HEAD test access through the profile; on iOS these tests require iOS 17 or later.
In Subscriptions, set automatic updates, the interval and optional startup actions. Prevent duplicates updates an existing subscription instead of creating another card for the same link.
Xray core and IP preference
Core settings apply on the next connection. Xray TUN is the standard system VPN mode on iPhone. On Android, turning TUN off leaves a local proxy only; apps do not use that proxy automatically.
Automatic IP preference preserves provider settings. IPv4 and IPv6 set the preference for supported connections and DNS; selecting IPv6 does not add it to a network that lacks it.
Mux and fragmentation are options for compatible servers, not automatic speed improvements. Leave overrides off unless your provider recommends them; the settings already included in a full configuration are preserved.
Local network access
LAN access lets other devices on your network use the running SOCKS5 or HTTP proxies. Settings show Wi-Fi/Ethernet addresses and ports. Configure the device that will use the proxy separately.
LAN access is off by default. Enable it only on a trusted local network; these proxies have no separate password. A local IP shown in settings does not by itself mean the proxy is running; check active addresses after connecting.
