Socks-X VPN

Socks-X VPN is an Android VPN app for connecting to the internet through servers in different countries, with the stated purpose of accessing websites or content that may be restricted. Its documented controls let users choose a server and decide which apps or websites use the VPN connection.

Server choice and access

The app describes a range of servers in different countries and lets users select a server for browsing. Its guidance suggests choosing one geographically close to the user, with the stated aim of reducing latency and improving download or streaming speeds. The source does not identify particular server locations or guarantee a specific connection result.

Socks-X VPN also describes access to blocked websites and content as a use for its VPN connection. It presents connecting as a one-tap action, but does not explain additional connection settings or how restrictions vary by location.

Control over which traffic uses the VPN

Split tunneling lets users select which apps or websites should use the VPN connection. This provides a way to customize which traffic is routed through it rather than treating all apps and sites identically. The description does not provide further details about how selections are configured.

Connection privacy controls

The app’s description says its connection is encrypted and presents private browsing as a purpose of the service. It also lists a kill switch, which is intended to disconnect the device from the internet if the VPN connection drops. These are described features, not independent verification of security or privacy outcomes.

Together, server selection, split tunneling, and the kill switch are the clearest documented controls for managing the VPN connection. The supplied information does not state a minimum Android version; its operating-system field contains no usable version requirement.
