Nym is pleased to announce the first new NymVPN release of 2026: NymVPN v2026.1.

Significant improvements have been made to DNS to improve connections in censored regions, as well as to server selection and bandwidth error messaging. The results are a significantly smoother and reliable NymVPN experience.

Improved DNS for censorship resistance

Following successes in the Android v2025.20 app in overcoming connection restrictions in censored regions, improvements to DNS and connection have been applied to all apps.

Read more about NymVPN’s roadmap for censorship resistance.

Android: Dynamic server connection

The NymVPN Android app now dynamically reconnects when both changing servers and toggling between Fast and Anonymous modes.

Important fixes

Bandwidth bug

A bug causing users to receive an error message incorrectly that they are out of bandwidth has been fixed.

Fix for custom DNS selection

A bug has been resolved on Android resulting from the VPN tunnel not reconnecting and causing custom DNS to not be applied after selection.

For Android, Linux, and Windows apps, UX improvements have been made to the server selection and search interface.

Other UX changes

  • iOS & macOS: Toggled added for AmneziaWG in Settings > Anti-censorship
  • macOS: IPv6 toggle can now be turned on and off

What’s next for NymVPN

Here’s some stuff to look out for in the coming releases of NymVPN:

  • Logins from social accounts if desired
  • [Mixnet](/mixnet] optimizations to increase speed and security
  • And a lot more next year

Stay tuned for Nym’s 2026 roadmap for NymVPN and the Nym network.
