HopFox VPN news

HopFox for Linux is out

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 10:28:34 +0000

HopFox VPN 0.4.3 for Linux is on the download page: a .deb for Debian and Ubuntu and an AppImage for any distribution. 64-bit x86, Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04 or newer.

It is the same engine as on Android: Xray-core with VLESS Reality on port 443. A small helper service creates the tunnel, so every app on the computer goes through it, DNS included. The app itself asks for nothing: no account, no card, 30 days free, then Free mode.

The Linux build was tested end to end on Debian and Ubuntu before publishing: install, connect, switch locations, disconnect, and the routes and DNS come back exactly as they were.

The site in ten languages

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 09:35:00 +0000

hopfoxvpn.com now speaks ten languages. English stays at the main address; the others live in their own folders, for example hopfoxvpn.com/ru/ or hopfoxvpn.com/de/. The language switcher is in the header, next to your account.

Every page, the news included, is translated, and each language version is a real address of its own, so search engines can find the right one for you.

Download page with platform cards, and an RSS feed

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 08:20:00 +0000

The download page now shows every platform as a card with its logo: Android is live, iPhone and iPad, Mac and Windows are marked as coming. One tap on the Android card opens the APK page.

The news has an RSS feed at hopfoxvpn.com/news/feed.xml. Under the hood, the site got a pass over titles, headings and link previews, so search engines and messengers show it properly.

One download page per platform

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 07:51:00 +0000

The download page now starts with a choice of device. Today there is one entry, Android, and it leads to its own page with the APK, the version, the checksum and the install steps. Each new platform will get its own page in the same place.

Also fixed: dates on the site were shown in the language of your browser. They are now always in English and in UK time.

Android 0.4.3: open your account page with one tap

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 07:47:00 +0000

In the app, under the account number, there is now an Open account page link. The page opens in your browser already signed in: no number to type.

How it works: the app asks our panel for a link, the panel issues a random one-time code that is valid for two minutes and burns after the first use. Your account number never appears in the link, and the code is not derived from it, so an intercepted link is useless.

The same version is built for Mac and iPhone and will ship when those apps are released.

Android 0.4.2: a pointer to the account page

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 07:41:00 +0000

Small update. Under the account number in the app there is now a line that tells you where to use it: hopfoxvpn.com/account. The app also reports its version to our panel on every request, so the account page shows which version each device runs.

Account page, a phone-friendly site, and the Greek flag

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 07:38:00 +0000

There is now an account page at hopfoxvpn.com/account. Sign in with the account number from the app (Account, next to the number there is a copy button). It shows your plan and the days left, every device that is signed in with the option to sign one out, how to add a new device, and your support tickets with the replies. You can also open a ticket from there.

The site works properly on a phone now: a menu button in the header, a stacked footer, and pages that fit a narrow screen.

The flag for Thessaloniki was missing on the home page. Fixed: the site now carries flags for every country, so a new location always gets its icon.

The site now shows only what is live

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 07:12:00 +0000

We rewrote hopfoxvpn.com so it describes exactly what exists today: the Android app, one protocol, and the locations that are actually running. The locations on this site are read live from our panel, so they never go stale.

New pages: Technology, with a detailed explanation of VLESS Reality and why we chose it, and this news section, where every change will be posted with a date. The site is served over HTTPS only.

In the apps, the status on the home screen is now a plain line of text instead of a badge, and the location block sits next to the Connect switch.

Android 0.4.1: a calmer home screen and steadier switching

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 06:55:00 +0000

The home screen was redrawn. The status is now a small label instead of a big word, the location sits next to the Connect switch and opens the list when you tap it, and the fox makes exactly one hop when you connect.

Switching locations quickly no longer trips the tunnel: requests are queued and only the latest one wins. The visible IP is checked through the new tunnel every time, and the real address is fetched again after you disconnect.

The layout was checked on a 480×800 screen as well, so it fits older and smaller phones.

HopFox for Android is out

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 21:55:00 +0000

The first HopFox app with a real tunnel is available on the download page as an APK. Android 8 or newer, any 64‑bit phone.

Inside: Xray 26.3.27 with VLESS Reality on port 443, so the connection looks like ordinary HTTPS to your network. The app creates an anonymous account on first launch; there is no sign-up, no card and no email. The first 30 days are free.

Support without an email address

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 20:40:00 +0000

You can now open a ticket on the support page. After sending you get a link; the reply appears on that link. We never ask for an email, and the app opens the form with your account number already filled in.

Three locations to start

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 18:00:00 +0000

Düsseldorf, Meppel and Thessaloniki are live. They are our own servers, keep no logs, and the app picks the fastest one for you by measuring latency on your device. More locations will be added as demand grows; the list on this site is read live from our panel.
