What’s new:
- We’re excited to introduce NordWhisper, our latest VPN protocol! If you’ve ever been on a network that restricts the use of VPNs, this is the solution you’ve been waiting for. Unlike traditional VPN protocols, it doesn't have distinct traffic signatures or behaviors that reveal it as a VPN connection. You can use NordWhisper with regular and P2P servers.
- Our Help section just got a new look. If the app isn’t working quite right, you can easily get to our Support Center for quick answers and in-depth tutorials. You’ll also find your diagnostic logs there — whether you’re already solving an issue with our support team or channeling your inner digital detective.
