Conduit for Android

Help bring open internet access with Conduit

Conduit is an Android application that lets you turn your phone into a participating node that helps people reach uncensored internet. Running the app adds your device to a distributed system that supports users in regions with restrictive connectivity.

How it works in practice

• Your device forwards traffic into the Psiphon network so requests can traverse around local blocks.
• When enabled, the phone behaves like a small proxy or relay for other users.
• Traffic is masked and redirected to make it harder for censorship systems to detect and block connections.

App details and availability

Conduit is listed in the Social & Communication category and is available at no charge for Android devices. Installation and activation are simple, so joining the network takes only a few minutes.

Why contributing matters

• Each active node increases the overall robustness of the Psiphon ecosystem against filtering and outages.
• Volunteers help expand real-world access to information and free expression for people behind censorship.
• Participation gives individuals a concrete way to support global digital rights and open communication.

Principles and impact

By operating a Conduit node you’re helping to uphold the idea that information should be accessible and that people should be able to share and receive ideas freely, in line with international human-rights principles. The collective effort of many users makes the network stronger and more resilient.
