VPNOn is an open-source iOS app that adds a Today Widget to Notification Center, letting users toggle IPSec IKEv1/IKEv2 VPN connections in seconds instead of navigating deep Settings menus. It also supports on-demand VPN activation for specified domains and vpnon:// URL schemes for quick configuration.

Use cases

  • turn on VPN quickly from iOS notification center widget
  • automatically connect VPN when visiting specific domains
  • add VPN server configurations via URL scheme
  • manage multiple IPSec IKEv1/IKEv2 VPN profiles on iPhone or iPad
  • avoid digging through nested iOS settings to enable VPN

When to choose

  • you want a fast, widget-based VPN toggle on iOS
  • you use your own IPSec IKEv1/IKEv2 VPN server
  • you need on-demand VPN per domain
  • you want to build and customize an open-source VPN client yourself

When to avoid

  • you need OpenVPN, WireGuard, or other non-IPSec protocols
  • you want a ready-made App Store app without building it with Xcode
  • you need VPN on Android, macOS, or other platforms
  • you need actively maintained software with recent updates
