Sidor VPN is an Android application for routing online activity through configurable tunneling protocols and methods. It is intended for browsing, streaming videos, downloading files, and changing a virtual location while using a mobile connection.
Tunneling protocols and methods
The app supports HTTP, UDP, TCP, SSL, TLS, and DNS tunneling options. This range gives users several protocol choices when configuring a connection for their network conditions or preferred setup.
Connection methods include POST, GET, OPTIONS, CONNECT, HEX, CORE, and other available methods identified by the app as “MORE.” These options provide additional ways to configure how traffic is handled rather than limiting connections to one fixed method.
Browsing and network use
Sidor VPN is described as suitable for general web browsing, video streaming, and file downloads. It is also designed to work on low-speed mobile networks, including the 3G and 4G examples given in the source, with the aim of maintaining a stable connection in those conditions.
The application is presented as using low amounts of RAM and battery power. This resource-efficiency claim is intended to support continued use without the level of device consumption associated with more demanding applications.
Account and virtual location
Users can create a free account through www.sidorvpn.com. The source states that account registration provides access to the app's features for a complimentary three-day period.
The app can change a user's virtual location by connecting through servers in different locations. The source associates this function with accessing content restricted by country or region and browsing with increased privacy, although the actual availability of locations may depend on the connection configuration.
