VPN on an Andriod box

Featured Replies

Hi All,

 

          I could do with some help here please. I have this evening successfully installed my VPN onto  an android box attached to my TV but when I open the app to connect if fills the entire TV screen therefore I cannot minimize in order to access anything else. The VPN connects, but is useless if I can't access elsewhere.

 

         I'm typing this on a PC. On this device the VPN on/off feature is much smaller than the PC screen and runs as normal in the background. It has the usual 'Min/Max/Off' boxes in the top right corner but they were out of reach on the TV. I will shortly be speaking to Express VPN but thought i'd ask here too.

 

        I'm using Express VPN on a 4k Ultra HD TV box purchased a few days ago.

 

       Has anyone had similar probs & can point me in the right direction?

 

      Thanks :smile:

After opening and enabling the app you need to return to the android desktop, the VPN will continue to run in the background, and open the next app.  Hit the HOME button on your Android Box  ('O' icon, or just right-click a mouse 'Back' button).

 

You can see what apps are still running by using the '□' box icon
