I’m still sad about the state of WireGuard for average consumers. The protocol and the underlying tools are a simple and nice in a UNIX-like way, but for average people, it’s a wash. WireGuard would benefit greatly from a set of robust, easy to understand clients.

The current state of the world, where many VPN providers ship questionable apps of varying quality, is just sad for a solution that claims to prioritize security and privacy. The WireGuard app is somewhat useable, but it is by no means “easy to setup” unless you’re already familiar with how WireGuard works.




I found the Android client very easy to use. You can import a config file or scan a QR code to setup a profile. If you know what you are doing, you can setup it up manually.

Compared to the Cisco client we use for work, wireguard seemed better in every way.
