v2RayTun
A second client from Google Play — a good fit if you need a different interface or the first option turned out to be inconvenient.

Battery saving and autostart

Do I need root access or special Android settings?+
No. Just install a client from Google Play, add the key with a button from your account or the bot, and turn on the VPN. Android will ask for VPN connection permission once.
Can I add the key to a phone and tablet at the same time?+
Yes, a subscription can include up to 10 devices. Add the key on each device, and disable the extra ones in your account or the bot. If needed, the key can be reissued.
Why does the connection drop after the screen is locked?+
It’s usually due to battery saving: Android unloads the background app. Allow the client to autostart and run in the background, keep notifications on — in most cases that’s enough.
Does Baton VPN have its own app for Android?+
Our own app is in preparation for release. Currently, compatible Happ and v2RayTun clients are used on Android; the key is added to them with one button from your dashboard or the bot.
