Edit a Profile

Abstract

How to edit a profile in OpenVPN Connect, our free VPN client mobile app.

To edit a profile on your device:

  1. Tap or click to open the Menu.

  2. Tap or click My Profiles.

  3. Find the profile to edit from the list and tap or click on the Edit icon.

    • The profile parameters display.

      Note

      If you have an active connection with this profile, the message will display, "This profile is connected." You can't edit a profile with an active connection.

      Tip

      On the edit screen, you can change certain parameters, depending on your profile type, such as:

      • Profile Name: Give the profile a name that displays in the app. The default is the username at the server domain.

      • Server Override: (Optional) Manually enter a value to override the Server Hostname field populated above.

      • Proxy: Include a proxy when connecting. This requires creating a separate proxy configuration.

  4. Tap or click Save Changes.
