on GitHub

Nym VPN v2026.14.0-beta.1 application and core binaries. This release is for all platforms, except Android (Google Play)

🚀 What's New

🛠️ Core

Added

• Expose free trial eligibility (trialEligible from the active subscription endpoint) to mobile clients through the account controller (#6701)
• Expose the Apple introductory-offer eligibility token (subscription/apple/intro-offer-eligibility) to the iOS client through the account controller, for StoreKit's introductoryOfferEligibility purchase option (#6701)
• Publish the app update policy, with optional per-platform overrides, from discovery so clients can ask for or require an update (#6450)
• Add polkit-1-auth-agent to deb package dependencies to ensure that components used for graphical password prompts are installed alongside (#6502)
• Add nym-vpnc completions <shell> to generate shell completions, and install bash, zsh and fish completions with the macOS, deb and AUR packages (#6735)

Fixed

• Enter error state on failure to configure local DNS resolver (#6629)
• Auto selection no longer treats US states as separate jurisdictions: "exclude my country" and the entry/exit country check now compare whole countries only
• Fix panic in logging system initialization (#6674)
• Rotate logs on iOS and Android on per session basis (#6679)
• Remove SQLite WAL and shared-memory files (-wal, -shm) along with their databases when wiping local storage. (#6706)
• Resolve the nyxd, nym-api and VPN API hostnames concurrently when connecting, so a blocked encrypted DNS no longer adds its timeout once per lookup
• Fix F-Droid reproducible builds by omitting the Sentry DSN and sccache wrapper from the F-Droid build (#6692)

Security

• Decide the route for each resolved IP address individually in the geo-exclusion proxy. Previously, if any address resolved for a domain was excluded, all of that domain’s addresses were routed outside the tunnel. (#6705)

🤖 Android app

Added

• Show the app update prompt on Android. A dismissible prompt can be closed; a required one cannot and blocks new tunnels (#6451)

Changed

• Keystore-bound auth with PIN fallback for passphrase and subscription (#6727)
• Mask passphrase input with temporary reveal (#6727)
• Sync network stats preference to core, off by default (#6727)
• Flatten server list into per-row lazy items (#6736)
• Move row building and expand state to ViewModel (#6736)
• Free trial is offered only when the backend reports the account as trial eligible: the Play offer is selected explicitly (trial offer vs. regular offer) and the trial label is hidden whenever the regular offer will be launched
• Onboarding plan page and plan screens share one trial eligibility check (no stored account = eligible, otherwise the backend answer) and show a trial only when Play also offers one; the trial length comes from Play instead of a hardcoded 7 days, and the onboarding fallback pricing no longer claims a trial
• Purchase flow launches the base plan (never an intro-discount offer) when no trial applies, and reports an error instead of hanging when no base plan is available
• Trial labels and plan pricing no longer shift the layout when eligibility or Play pricing resolve
• Update and improve error-message copy (#6749)

Fixed

• Fix unclickable nodes in large countries (#6736)
• Show the daily allowance reset time in the local time zone (#6497)
• Persist onboarding data-sharing consent through AppSettings so the welcome sheet and Settings stay in sync (#6469)
• Correct the welcome-sheet consent toggles for error reports and usage analytics to match Settings (#6470)

🐧🪟 Windows & Linux apps

Added

• Show the update dialog on Linux, macOS and Windows when the app or daemon is below the minimum supported version. A required update cannot be dismissed and blocks new connections (#6452)
• Log panics to the app log file, flushing queued log lines when the main thread panics (#6673)

Changed

• Reword the daily-allowance limit error to point to Account Status (#6497)
• Update and improve error-message copy (#6748)

🍎 iOS & macOS apps

Added

• Show an update alert on iOS and macOS when below the minimum supported version. A required update blocks new connections, including from the menu bar (#6453)

Changed

• iOS: free trial offered only to eligible Nym accounts (#6701)
• Update and improve error-message copy (#6750)

Fixed

• Show the daily allowance reset time, including time of day, in the local time zone (#6497)
• Persist the network-stats preference consistently, including on iOS (#6469)
