AdGuard makes its open-source stealth VPN protocol native to macOS with one-click setup
Gone are the days of command-line setups — AdGuard's stealth VPN protocol, TrustTunnel, is now available as a native macOS application directly from the Mac App Store. Here's why it matters.
AdGuard has made its open-source stealth VPN protocol, TrustTunnel, available as a native app for macOS with a simple one-click setup. This protocol disguises VPN traffic as regular HTTPS web browsing, enabling it to bypass deep packet inspection (DPI) and evade blocks from restrictive networks. Previously, macOS users had to use complex terminal commands to set up TrustTunnel, but the new client simplifies the process with a user-friendly graphical interface.
TrustTunnel now offers easy-to-use features such as a menu bar status icon, automatic startup on macOS boot, and auto-connect when the app launches. The update also includes a convenient "Export logs" option in the settings menu, allowing users to quickly export diagnostic logs for troubleshooting connection issues. Overall, AdGuard's latest release democratizes access to advanced VPN technology, making it more accessible for everyday users.
