Setting Up WireGuard VPN on Any Device (Desktop, iOS, Android)

Same account, every device — here's the fastest way to get connected on each platform.

iOS / Android: scan the QR code

1. Install the official WireGuard app (App Store / Play Store).
2. Open your VPN management panel on RepublicNodes and find the QR code.
3. In the WireGuard app, tap + → Scan from QR code, and point your camera at it.
4. Flip the toggle to connect.

No typing, no file transfer between devices — the whole config transfers through the camera in one scan.

Windows / macOS / Linux: import the file

1. Install the official WireGuard app for your OS.
2. From your VPN management panel, click Download .conf file.
3. In the WireGuard app, choose Import tunnel(s) from file and select it.
4. Click Activate.

Using multiple devices at once

Each VPN plan is one peer (one device identity) by default. If you want the VPN active on your phone and laptop simultaneously, order a separate plan for each — this also means you can disable or recreate one device's access without affecting the other.

If a connection ever acts up

Your management panel has two recovery tools:

• Disable / Enable — instantly cuts or restores your connection, e.g. if you suspect you left it connected somewhere you shouldn't have.
• Recreate — generates a completely new key pair. Use this if you think a config file leaked (shared a screenshot, lost a device). Every device using the old config stops working immediately, and you'll need to re-download/re-scan the new one.

Open your VPN panel from your service page to get your QR code or config file now.
