Openvpn connect on iPhone

VPN

Hi,

I’m having a tough time understanding how to import a profile on my kid’s iPhone. Me, android, super easy. IPhone - nudda.

Url: a point it to a locally hosted file (ovpn file). It complains it can’t connect. I can in a browser.

File import, the tip suggests opening finder and dropping the file but that feels like an instruction for a mac…

Noob help appreciated

You could try adding the profile file as an attachment to an email and then share/open with with the OpenVPN app from there on the phone.

  1. On your laptop, save the .ovpn file to your Apple iCloud
  2. On your iPhone, open the Files app
  3. Find and tap your .ovpn file
  4. Tap the open icon on bottom left and open the file in your OpenVPN app

I’ve got the file on the phone. WhatsApp. I just cannot get it to select or browse. . That’s the issue
