If you wish, you can create and download new certificates for Android/Kindle tablet or you can use existing OpenVPN certificates/OVPN configs just fine. Once downloaded, you can extract the zip file into your Android/Kindle tablet storage anywhere, e.g. into "sdcard/Astrill"


Note : You can only generate and use the standard Openvpn profiles. You cannot use "Split Routing for China" profiles due to size limitation imposed by Openvpn Connect app. Split Routing profiles are meant to be used on computers only.

STEP 2 - Download and install the FEAT VPN application from any one of these links according to your operating system version

   Android 2.x (Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread) and 3.x (Honeycomb):
