Browser extensions for Chromium-based browsers and Firefox

3/1/2025

We are pleased to introduce Red Shield VPN browser extensions for Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Brave, Edge, Yandex Browser, and others), as well as for Firefox.
The extensions are powered by Red Shield VPN’s technologies to ensure stable and secure connections.

You can connect the extensions to your subscription just like you do with the apps.

Split tunneling in browser extensions
12/18/2025

The Red Shield VPN browser extensions now support per-site split tunneling.

You can add domains that always go through the VPN — or conversely, exclude them and send traffic directly. Second-level domain wildcards are supported, for example *.ru. The feature is available in both Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Brave, Edge, Yandex Browser) and Firefox.

Open the extension settings — the "Split Tunneling" section — and build your list of sites. Update the extension to the latest version if you don't see this option.

VLESS (XTLS) configurator in the Personal Area
11/18/2025

Red Shield VPN has added a dedicated configurator for VLESS with XTLS transport to the Personal Area — one of the most DPI-resistant modern protocols.

You can generate a configuration and connect to Red Shield VPN from any VLESS-compatible client: Xray-core, v2rayNG, v2rayN, Hiddify, and others.

Open the "Manual Setup" section in the Personal Area — the VLESS (XTLS) button is first in the list, marked with a NEW badge.

6/29/2024
Red Shield VPN now supports the AmnesiaWG protocol.
AmneziaWG is an open source fork of the Wireguard protocol that is resistant to DPI detection and blocking.
You can get the AmneziaWG configuration in the Personal Area and set up a VPN connection using the AmneziaWG apps for Android, iOS, macOS, KeeneticOS, and other platforms and devices supported by the developers and the community.

AmneziaWG is also already available in the Red Shield VPN app for iOS and will soon appear in apps for other platforms.
The Apple TV app is now available!
5/24/2024

We're excited to introduce the Red Shield VPN app for Apple TV!


The app interface is fully optimized for remote control navigation. You can easily register or log in by simply pointing your smartphone camera at a QR code.

The app supports RedLink, RedLink Shadow, and OpenVPN protocols.


Install the app on your Apple TV. Just search for "Red Shield VPN" in the App Store.

Kill Switch and VPN Only Access features in the macOS app
5/14/2024
The Red Shield VPN app for macOS now supports Kill Switch and VPN Only Access features.

• Kill Switch prevents traffic leaks when the VPN is on and not manually turned off by the user, and the app is running. If the VPN is turned off by the user or the app is closed for any reason (by the user or due to a crash), traffic will go directly.

This is the best choice if you need better control over your traffic during VPN sessions.

• VPN Only Access prevents direct internet access without the VPN at all times, even if the VPN is turned off by the user, the app is closed for any reason, or the Mac is restarted.

Choose this feature if you need maximum protection against traffic leaks.

Read more about these features to find the one that's best for you.
