It works similarly to tinc, direct WireGuard or Tailscale, but fully peer-to-peer — there are no central coordination servers to trust or set up. Your traffic goes directly between your devices.\n\nYou can also route traffic through a remote device — either per-app as a SOCKS5 proxy, or all of your device's traffic at once as a full-tunnel VPN gateway (exit node).\n\n<b>Some use cases</b>\n<ul>\n<li>Connect to your home or work laptop over RDP/VNC/SSH even when it sits behind NAT, without configuring port forwarding.</li>\n<li>Reach self-hosted services like Nextcloud, Home Assistant or Bitwarden without exposing them to the internet.</li>\n<li>Access websites from another country by using a remote device as a SOCKS5 proxy.</li>\n<li>Route all of your traffic through a remote device as a full-tunnel VPN gateway (exit node), like a classic VPN.</li>\n<li>Gaming: local multiplayer as if everyone were on the same LAN.</li>\n<li>Share a development server with a colleague on another device, as an alternative to ngrok.</li>\n<li>Use an old Android phone remotely with scrcpy to run Android-only apps without an emulator.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<b>Features</b>\n<ul>\n<li>Fully peer-to-peer. No third-party coordination servers — your traffic stays between your devices.</li>\n<li>Route traffic through a remote device like a SOCKS5 proxy.</li>\n<li>Full-tunnel VPN gateway: route all of your device's traffic through a remote exit node.</li>\n<li>Easy to use: install the app, scan the QR code of another device, and you are connected.</li>\n<li>Built-in NAT traversal.</li>\n<li>If both devices are behind NAT and direct P2P is not possible, encrypted traffic is relayed through community relays.</li>\n<li>TLS 1.3 encryption for all transports (QUIC and TCP).</li>\n<li>ed25519 peer authentication — a peer id is the device's public key.</li>\n<li>Cross-platform: Android, Windows, Linux, macOS.</li>\n</ul>\n","categories":["Connectivity","Internet","VPN & Proxy"]}
