How to Download, Install and Set Up the ExpressVPN Android App?

There are many reasons why you will need a VPN while using the Internet. The instructions mentioned below are for Express VPN designed for Android, which is compatible with Android 5.0 and up, i.e. Lollipop (5.x), Marshmallow (6.x), Nougat (7.x), Oreo (8.x), .x), Pie (9.x), Android 7, Android 8, Android 10 and Android 11, etc. So without worrying about whether your Android will be compatible with Express VPN software or not, just follow these easy steps:

Open the Google Play Store, Galaxy Store or Huawei Store depending on the Android mobile device you own.
Within the given app store, search for the Express VPN app.
Then, click on the search result that appears to open the separate ExpressVPN Android app page.
There, you need to locate the ‘Download/Install’ button and tap on it. Doing so will download the ExpressVPN Android app and save it to your Android device.

However, if you are unable to access Google Play, Galaxy Store or Huawei Store, what you can do is tap on this link to download Express VPN APK directly to your Android device.

[Note: If you consider downloading this VPN app on your Android from any Third-party source then, it is worth noting that the Android OS system blocks all apps that are not downloaded from the Play Store. To avoid the blockade, you have to manually give permission to ‘Unknown Sources’ through navigating from ‘Settings Page’ to ‘Security Tab’ and there, turn on the ‘Allow installation of apps from unknown sources’ option.]

Now, since you have downloaded the Express VPN app on your Android phone, you can follow these in-app setup instructions to use it:

Open the Express VPN app and tap on the ‘New to Express VPN’ option.
Next, follow the onscreen instructions to sign up for Express VPN.
And, once you are done with the registration process, launch the application again.
This time, tap on the ‘Login’ option to access the Express VPN account control panel.

There, as prompted, enter the email address and password of your respective Express VPN account.
After doing so, tap on the ‘Login’ button.

You will then be asked whether or not you want to share anonymous diagnostics with Express VPN. Then, you simply have to select your preference either ‘OK’ or ‘No, thanks’ to continue.

You will then be prompted to set up your VPN and approve Expressvpn connection requests.
Once you are done with the settings, tap on the ‘OK’ button and finally proceed to use the app.
