This page contains links to download and installation instructions for VPN software for Android tablets, smartphones, and ereaders.

Note: General guidelines below

Because there are so many variations in Android device interfaces, the specific sequence required for your particular device may not be described here. University community members can contribute their specific experiences with their devices at Community-developed VPN configurations.

The images below were taken on Android 4.4.2 KitKat; your interface may vary.

Installing the VPN app

Kindle owners: Use the Amazon Kindle store.
All other Android owners (including Chromebooks): Use the Google Play Store.

NOTE: The AnyConnect client is not compatible with all Android devices; the Play Store and Kindle Store will inform you if your particular device isn't compatible.

When installing, you'll be prompted to agree to the permissions that AnyConnect needs, including network and phone access.

Configuring the VPN app

After you've installed the AnyConnect app on your Android or Kindle, there may be a new AnyConnect icon on your home screen, or you may need to look through All Applications to find it.

(Note that on other operating systems, you may be used to looking under 'Cisco AnyConnect' to find the VPN app; on Android it appears as 'AnyConnect'.)

Launch the AnyConnect app.
If prompted with an End User License Agreement (EULA), tap to accept it.
Tap Add VPN Connection...
In the Connection Editor, enter the following:
- Description: Urbana VPN
- Server address: vpn.illinois.edu
  - (vpn.cites.illinois.edu will still work)
Tap Done.
This will save the configuration for future use.
