Install Tunnelbird

One command for every distribution. The script reads your system, checks what it needs and installs Tunnelbird in your home folder: no administrator, no store, no account. To update, run it again.

curl -fsSL https://tunnelbird.ferhatsn.fr/install.sh | sh

Read the script first · Do it step by step · Check compatibility

Everything you need, nothing to configure

Preferences of the automatic connection: connect on untrusted networks, trusted Wi-Fi networks and the strict verification

Safe on café Wi-Fi, quiet at home

Pick the Wi-Fi networks you trust. Anywhere else, Tunnelbird connects your tunnel by itself. An optional check also recognises your own router, so a look-alike hotspot is not trusted.

Live traffic and location

Your public address, its country and city, and a graph of the traffic. Warns when the server goes quiet.

Any provider file

WireGuard® .conf and OpenVPN .ovpn files, checked and editable before anything is saved.

From the top bar

Switch tunnels, watch the traffic and quit without opening the window.

To your phone

Share a WireGuard® tunnel as a QR code and scan it with your phone's VPN app.

Private by design

No account, no tracking. The only requests are the location of your public address while connected, and a daily check for new versions you can turn off. What leaves your computer.

Works with your Linux
