Most
people do not know how to use Psiphon and have been complaining about
use. In my earlier posts, i talked about Psiphon and also showed how you
can easily get the app You should first verify that your copy of Psiphon for Android is authentic. Click on a Psiphon APK link from within your Android email client or web
browser if you done a request to begin the installation or just get for PC here. (If you get an error, you may need
to enable sideloading.)
When you launch the Psiphon app, it will automatically start connecting to the Psiphon network.
Psiphon is running in VPN or Whole Device mode. All applications are tunneled through Psiphon.
Status Tab is selected
To run Psiphon in Tunnel Whole Device mode, you must have Android 4.0+ or a rooted device.
This option will be unavailable for non-rooted devices with an older version of Android.

Once the app has connected to the network, it will launch the built-in
Psiphon browser. Psiphon for Android does not automatically tunnel the
traffic for the default Android browser or other apps. By default, only
the Psiphon browser is tunneled through the Psiphon network.

Psiphon for Windows
You should first verify that your copy of Psiphon for Windows is authentic.
Download the client program and run it. When you run it, you should see a
security prompt showing that this program is a legitimate product of
Psiphon Inc.
Psiphon automatically starts connecting when you run it. While it is
connecting, a spinning icon is displayed. You may select one of the
following tunnel modes: VPN (L2TP over IPSec), SSH, or SSH+ (SSH plus
obfuscation, a randomized layer on top of SSH to avoid protocol
fingerprinting).
Connection to the Psiphon server is established when the green icon is
displayed. In VPN mode, all of your traffic automatically tunnels
through Psiphon.
In SSH and SSH+ modes, Psiphon automatically sets the Windows system
proxy settings, so network traffic for applications that respect these
settings will be tunneled through Psiphon. These settings are respected
by default by all major web browsers.
Furthermore, in SSH and SSH+ modes, Psiphon offers a split tunnel option
where international traffic is tunneled through the proxy and domestic
traffic is not. Check the “Don’t proxy domestic web sites” option to
enable split tunneling. When this option is on, unproxied domains are
reported in the message area.
When you close the program, Psiphon automatically disconnects. You can also click on the icon to toggle the connection.
