Amnezia VPN is an app that logs in to your VPS over SSH and installs and configures a VPN on its own. It suits you if you do not want to deal with terminal commands.

​
Installation

You need a clean server on Ubuntu or Debian with root access, without other VPNs or conflicting software.
  1. App – download it from amnezia.org for Windows, macOS, or Linux. There are iOS and Android versions too.
  2. Server details – enter the IP, the login, and the password or an SSH key in the app. They are on the card: @lumivps_bot → My servers → server → Server IP, User (usually root), Password. If SSH is not on the standard port 22, add the port too.
  3. Protocol – automatic mode installs AmneziaWG: WireGuard with extra obfuscation that hides better from deep packet inspection (DPI) systems. WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenVPN over Cloak, Shadowsocks, IKEv2, and XRay Reality can be added later in the settings.
  4. Install – click the button and wait a couple of minutes: the app logs in to the server and sets everything up.

​
Devices

Once installed, Amnezia shares access with other devices:
  • QR code – scan it from your phone right in the app.
  • Settings file – move it to another device and import it.
  • Text key – copy it and paste it into Amnezia on another device.

​
Troubleshooting

  • A port will not open or there is no network – check the Firewall. If that does not help, write to @lumisup_robot. Support handles the server and network, Amnezia is on you.
  • The app screens look different – the interface changes, check docs.amnezia.org.
