At a glance
Fair VPN is a free Android utility from UltraReach Internet Corp that lets you encrypt your mobile traffic and choose from several advanced network protocols. It’s intended as a configurable VPN client rather than a simplified, single-tap service, so it’s more suited to users who understand how different VPN protocols work.
Interface and main controls
The app’s layout resembles a settings panel instead of a minimalist launcher. Two small toggles labeled “Status” and “Low Memory Mode” sit near the top; switching them on initiates the VPN connection and helps mask your online activity. This is unlike consumer-focused apps such as Turbo VPN or Fast VPN, which typically offer a single big button to connect and disconnect.
Because the UI emphasizes manual configuration, newcomers may find the initial setup confusing. For experienced users who enjoy fine-tuning connections, the control scheme provides flexibility without a lot of unnecessary steps.
Protocols supported
Fair VPN’s strength is its wide protocol compatibility. It accepts connections for a number of project-specific protocols, including:
- trojan
- shadowsocksR
- xtls
- vless
- shadowsocks
- v2ray
- vmess
Note: v2ray, vmess, and vless are closely associated with Project V. In most cases you’ll need to add protocol endpoints yourself rather than relying on preconfigured servers.
Adding servers and utilities
Server management tools are grouped toward the bottom of the screen. The options let you bring in connections in multiple ways:
- Test VPN Latency
- Add VPN by QR Code
- Import VPN Configs
- Get More VPN
- Add VPN by Link
These functions let you import or create entries manually, giving you control over which protocol and server to use. That flexibility is great if you have custom endpoints, but it does mean a manual setup step for many connections.
Who should use Fair VPN
Fair VPN is best for people comfortable with networking concepts and custom protocol configuration. It’s a reliable option for advanced users who want to pick specific protocols and tweak settings. Beginners can learn to use it — the app doesn’t impose many extra hoops when adding VPNs — but expect a short learning curve and some background research to get everything working smoothly.
