Android privacy client

Your private route.
Android protected.

Lumen provisions a full-device IKEv2/IPsec profile through Android's own platform VPN implementation—without keeping your gateway credentials in the app.

01 / Experience

Clear by design

Privacy controls that
explain themselves.

01
TRUSTED GATEWAY

One focused setup path.

Add a trusted IKEv2 server, choose the authentication method supplied by your administrator, and let Android own the encrypted profile.

Gateway required
02
SAFE IMPORT

Bring a prepared profile.

Import a small UTF-8 JSON or key=value profile, review it, then hand it to Android. Lumen does not keep the selected file.

03
HONEST PRIVACY

No impossible promises.

Lumen clearly separates what the carrier can observe from what remains inside the tunnel—and reminds you that the gateway must be trusted.

03 / Privacy boundary

Encrypted.
Not mysterious.

Privacy depends on both the encrypted transport and the gateway you choose. Lumen tells you where that boundary sits.
