The location of VPN settings varies between Android manufacturers. Try: Settings → Network & Internet → Advanced → VPN (stock Android/Pixel). Samsung: Settings → Connections → More Connection Settings → VPN. OnePlus/Xiaomi: Settings → Wi-Fi & Internet → VPN. Or search 'VPN' in your Settings search bar.
Your username or password was entered incorrectly. Tap and hold the VPN profile, select Edit, and re-enter your credentials exactly as shown in your welcome email. Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive — a capital letter or extra space will cause a failure.
The server address may have been entered incorrectly. Check your welcome email and verify the Server field matches exactly. Also check your internet is working without the VPN active. If you're on mobile data, ensure mobile data is enabled.
Check your spam and junk folders. Search for emails from [email protected]. If not found within 10 minutes of purchase, email our support team and we'll resend your credentials immediately.
Some Android power management settings can kill background network connections. Go to Settings → Battery → Battery Optimisation (or similar), find your VPN service, and set it to 'Not optimised'. On Samsung devices, also check Settings → Device Care → Battery → Sleeping Apps.
For the best speeds, use the server closest to your physical location — a UK server if you're in the UK, for example. Your welcome email should list multiple server options. Connecting to distant servers (e.g., a US server from the UK) will naturally add some latency.

Email SupportPurchase your plan at clearviewvpn.com, then check your welcome email for your VPN credentials. On your Android device go to Settings → Network & Internet → VPN (or Advanced → VPN on some devices). Tap the + icon to add a VPN, select IKEv2/IPSec MSCHAPv2, enter your server details and credentials from the welcome email, save, then tap to connect.
No. Clear View VPN is configured directly through Android's built-in VPN settings — no third-party app required. This makes the setup lighter, more secure, and means there are no background app processes other than the VPN itself.
Clear View VPN works on Android 5 (Lollipop) and above via the built-in VPN support. This covers the vast majority of Android phones in use today, including Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus, Xiaomi, and other brands.
Battery impact is minimal. Using Android's native VPN configuration with IKEv2 is more efficient than most third-party VPN apps because it runs as a system-level service rather than a user-space application.
Check that your username and password match exactly what was in your welcome email — these are case-sensitive. Also verify the server address is correct. Different Android manufacturers put VPN settings in slightly different places — if you can't find it, search 'VPN' in your Settings search bar.
Yes. Every Clear View VPN plan supports up to 5 simultaneous connections. Set it up on your Android phone, tablet, iPhone, Mac, and Windows PC all at the same time.
Yes. Clear View VPN encrypts all internet traffic on your Android device including mobile data connections. It works equally well on Wi-Fi and 4G/5G.
