Questions & Answers
Is it safe to install an APK outside Google Play?
Yes. The RUSVPN APK is signed with the developer certificate. Installing outside Google Play is required because Google Play in Russia may restrict VPN apps. Always download the APK only from the official site rusvpn.online.
Is RUSVPN for Android free?
Yes, the base version is completely free. No sign-up, no credit card. Paid plans unlock higher traffic limits and Double VPN*.
Does the VPN work on 4G/5G (Tele2, MTS, Beeline)?
Yes. On mobile data RUSVPN automatically switches to TCP protocols (VLESS, Trojan, Cloak), since carriers may block UDP. On Wi-Fi the faster AmneziaWG is used.
Does the VPN drain the battery?
Barely. RUSVPN uses native WireGuard (AmneziaWG) on Wi-Fi — it consumes less power than classic VPNs. Background impact is practically zero.

The app shows an update notification inside itself. You can also download the latest APK from this page — the link always points to the current version.
