This is a Snap integration preview, not a stable release. Browser sign-in, keyring access, NetworkManager integration and connection recovery inside Snap still require validation. AppImage connection tests do not validate this Snap build.

VPN Pink 0.1.41 · Ubuntu

  • A refreshed design
  • WireGuard and IKEv2/IPsec connections
  • Sign in with Google, Apple or Amazon
  • Send feedback and report problems in the app
  • Read privacy and other policies in the app

Before connecting: Ubuntu packages

IKEv2/IPsec needs the NetworkManager plugin and extra strongSwan modules. Updating the AppImage does not install these system packages.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install network-manager-strongswan libcharon-extra-plugins libstrongswan-extra-plugins

Check packages and the EAP module

The package query checks installation. The file check must find libstrongswan-eap-identity.so. This proves installation, not that the running service loads it or that a VPN tunnel works.

dpkg-query -W network-manager-strongswan strongswan-nm libcharon-extra-plugins libstrongswan-extra-plugins
dpkg -L libcharon-extra-plugins | grep 'libstrongswan-eap-identity.so'

If the connection log says “EAP_IDENTITY not supported” or eap-identity cannot load, install the packages above. Save your work and restart Ubuntu to reload the VPN modules. Then retry the VPN Pink app first. If it still fails, collect a fresh log in a separate terminal. Other optional plugin warnings do not mean that every listed plugin is required.

WireGuard is supported directly by NetworkManager; no additional VPN plugin is needed.

Start the app or CLI as your normal user, without sudo. Approve an administrator prompt if Ubuntu requests permission to configure the VPN. Missing packages and a blank app window are separate issues; installation does not guarantee a connection.

Downloading is free; VPN use requires an active paid plan.
