A VPN that grants network-level privacy on mobile by routing app traffic through Tor, assigns each app a separate circuit for improved separation, bypasses app-level censorship, features per-app routing, security via Rust-based implementation, and awaits early adopter feedback.

Tor VPN can be downloaded and installed from the Google Play Store.

Cannot be trusted IMO... all play store apps are signed by google (they actually hold your signing keys now) and contain proprietary blobs.

Android Tablets and Chromebooks are not supported.

Why not tablets?

Yeah, they should publish on f-droid or direct APK as well

EDIT: Just remembered the new android "feature" that restricts what apps you can install from off the play store to Google approved ones...still worth doing for those of us on AOSP OSes
