Yes. New users can register and use daily check-ins to claim Free VPN time for testing common routes, app compatibility, and browsing quality. Upgrade to VIP dedicated lines when you need stronger performance.
Usually no. Astrill Accelerator provides one-click apps. If you already use v2rayN, Shadowrocket, or v2rayNG, you can also follow the setup guide and use subscription-based configuration.
Concurrent device limits depend on the plan. Basic plans are suitable for personal phone and desktop use, while higher plans support more household devices. Check the current subscription page for exact limits.
Astrill Accelerator focuses on the common pain points of China VPN users: protocol camouflage, dedicated return routes, route switching, app downloads, and support that explains what to try next.
First refresh the subscription or route list, then switch to a lower-latency server. If the issue continues, check system time, DNS settings, and local network restrictions.
Some return-to-China access scenarios are supported. Overseas users can try regional routes for NetEase Cloud Music, Youku, iQIYI, and similar services, subject to platform policies and local networks.
If the direct download is slow, contact support for a mirror address or join the Telegram channel to find the latest client release information.
Yes. Routers that support OpenWrt, Merlin, or Padavan firmware can usually connect through plugins or subscription configuration for whole-home coverage.

Yes. The client can reselect routes based on network quality and provides encrypted connections on 5G, home Wi-Fi, and public Wi-Fi.
Privacy, Security, and Leak Protection
When connected, your traffic is carried through an encrypted tunnel. Your ISP may see encrypted connection activity, but not the specific webpage content you are viewing.
Yes. We do not log browsing history, page content, or a permanent mapping between real IP addresses and specific browsing activity. We retain only data required to operate the service.
We continuously tune Reality obfuscation, dedicated routes, and node selection to improve availability in complex networks. If one route fails, you can switch quickly inside the app.
The service uses modern encryption options such as TLS 1.3 and ChaCha20 to protect data on public Wi-Fi, hotel networks, and mobile connections.
Target websites generally see the exit IP of your selected node rather than your local real IP. Keep the app connected and use leak protection for stronger privacy.
Yes. When enabled, the Kill Switch blocks unencrypted traffic if the VPN tunnel drops unexpectedly, reducing the risk of accidental exposure.
DNS requests are routed through the encrypted tunnel whenever possible, reducing local DNS pollution, hijacking, and unwanted redirects.
No. Astrill Accelerator does not monetize by selling VPN usage data or building advertising profiles from browsing behavior.
That means your traffic is exiting through the selected region. You can switch among locations such as Hong Kong, Japan, the United States, or Singapore depending on your task.
Access, Speed, and Advanced Features
Yes. Separate routes are tuned for streaming and AI services, including Netflix 4K, Disney+, aiyifan, YouTube, ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok.
It can help in many international gaming and Steam download scenarios. Dedicated nodes focus on reducing packet loss and jitter, though final latency still depends on your ISP, game server, and distance.
Some nodes allow P2P traffic. Choose the appropriate route in the client notes and follow the legal requirements of your region and platform.
Local networks can still affect performance, but Astrill Accelerator uses dedicated capacity and load balancing to reduce congestion compared with ordinary Free VPN tools.
Split tunneling lets local apps use your normal network while Google, YouTube, ChatGPT, and other overseas services use the VPN route.
Some routes include ad-filtering rules that reduce common popups and malicious redirects, but they should not replace browser security tools or system protection.
Yes. For connection, subscription, app download, or device setup questions, submit a ticket or use Telegram support channels.
Start with automatic routing. For video, AI, or gaming, choose a region and low-load node that matches the target app.
Yes. Log into the same Astrill Accelerator account and your subscription rights sync across supported devices.
You can buy a temporary data top-up in the account center or upgrade to a higher plan before critical work sessions.
