VPN for services and games
In Russia YouTube is throttled, Telegram has trouble loading photos, Discord and Roblox are blocked, and Supercell itself pulled Brawl Stars from the country. VanyaVPN is one app for all of them, but the details differ. Discord voice and WhatsApp calls fail on some routes where text still works, and with a Russian Apple ID Brawl Stars needs an App Store from another country.

General questions
Do I need a different VPN for each service?
No. VanyaVPN sends the whole device through the VPN, so YouTube, Discord and your games all run on one app and one subscription.
Will a service that isn’t listed here work?
If it’s closed to Russia by IP address, or Russian providers slow it down, the VPN gets around that. If it checks the country of your bank card or phone number, changing the IP address won’t help.
I left Russia. Can it give me a Russian IP?
Yes. Choose Russia in Location and leave Tunnel set to Off, and Russian sites will see an address in Moscow. Banks may still ask you to switch the VPN off, since the server is in a data center. The details are on the Russian server page.
If what you need is an IP in a particular country rather than a particular service, start with the list of all 187 locations.
