Nova Client 1.34.2, build 285
This update brings the ringed Nova icon, a larger country selector with flags, subscription naming and controls, and improved explicit SNI-bypass cipher compatibility across all five clients. Saved profiles and settings are preserved. User-selected manual cipher settings remain respected.
Android: install and update through Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=online.novaproxy.nova_client
iOS: public TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/DuvVZd7K . Build 285 availability depends on Apple processing and beta approval. TestFlight is not App Store approval.
Desktop downloads are attached below. macOS is universal for Apple Silicon and Intel, Developer ID signed, notarized and stapled. Windows and Linux are x64. The Windows installer is not Authenticode signed; verify SHA256SUMS.txt before installation. The signed appcast provides authenticated installer updates for supported desktop clients.
Validation: Android's legitimate Play-delivered 283-to-285 upgrade retained the test subscription, active selection, favorite and defaults; dashboard, fresh verified HTTPS, same-session traffic after more than two minutes and VPN Stop passed. Desktop packages and native cores were checked, with local Mac and Linux smoke tests. Windows physical runtime, macOS system-extension/Intel/macOS 12 runtime and physical iOS 285 VPN tests remain unverified. Carrier results vary; no universal speed or connectivity guarantee is implied.
Do not uninstall an existing installation to update. Keep a profile backup before changing installation channels. Google Play and older sideload Android packages use different signing certificates and cannot replace each other directly.
