Opening the Vortex onion on an Android phone

Android is the easiest phone platform for Tor, provided the app is the real one.

Install the official app

Tor Browser for Android is published by the Tor Project. Install it from the official store listing or the project website, and check the developer name.

Connect once before browsing

Open the app, press Connect and wait until the connection finishes before you paste any vortex onion address.

Set the security level

In settings, raise the security level to Safer. It blocks a lot of risky page features while keeping most pages usable.

Paste, then compare

Paste the vortex market onion from a checked source and compare both ends of the address with what the gate on our home page shows.

Use the official Tor Browser app, connect first, choose Safer and compare the Vortex onion before opening it.
