Introduction

Tap the location card (for example London 8) to open Choose server. Android has a Servers list and a Countries list, plus Auto (fastest).

Android server list with Iplayer, P2P, NO P2P and 10GB badges

Servers tab

  • Search by city name.
  • Green ping is a good everyday server.
  • P2P — torrents allowed.
  • NO P2P — do not use that node for file sharing (example: Malinois 1).
  • 10GB — 10 Gbit server (example: London 1).
  • Iplayer — UK streaming-oriented server. Use this for BBC iPlayer when a generic London node is not enough.
  • Star a server to favourite it.

Android Countries tab with per-country ping times

Countries tab

Countries shows one ping per country (Australia 294 ms vs Belgium 10 ms in the screenshot). Open a country to pick a city. For speed, stay on a green-ping country. For a library or site that checks region, pick that country even if ping is higher.

Auto (fastest) at the top is the same as Settings > Auto-connect to fastest.
