Every guide has a date, versions and sources

What we do not promise

We do not promise that the VPN will work everywhere and always, and we do not set up devices for you. We write step-by-step guides, put an update date on each one, and say plainly where a step will not work. Сверчок is an independent service: the key apps are made by third-party developers.

What we do not do

  • We do not write that the steps were tested on a device

  • We do not publish screenshots of other people’s apps.

  • We do not rank or rate apps.

  • We do not pose as the developers of the apps.

Сверчок guides: how to connect a VPN

Guides for each device and walkthroughs for when the VPN does not connect. The guides are written in Russian.

All guides⁠

If it did not connect

Do not delete the app right away: check in order, first the key, then the device, and the network last.

  1. Key

    • Whether the subscription has ended. The period is shown in the personal account, in the Subscription section.
    • Whether the whole key was added and whether the subscription updates in the app without an error.
  2. Device

    • Whether the app has the VPN permission and whether a second VPN app is turned on.
    • Whether the phone uses automatic time and whether battery saving stops the app in the background.
  3. Network

    • Whether the app connects on another network, if the key and the device are fine.
    Step-by-step check⁠

Before you pay

All questions⁠
Who takes out the subscription if the VPN is for my mom?

You do, with your own email. The personal account, payment and automatic payment stay with you, and you add the key to the app on her phone. You can forward her the guide for her device.

Guides by device⁠
Which devices are the guides ready for?

iPhone and Android for now. For Mac there is a comparison of apps; for Windows, TV and router there are no guides yet. What is ready today is shown on the home page, in the section “What will work for your family”.

Guides⁠
Where can I see the prices of a key?

On the pricing page. The price depends on the subscription period, and the same page shows before payment when and how much will be charged on renewal.

To subscription periods⁠
Can I get my money back if it does not suit me?

Yes. If you change your mind within the first 7 days after payment, we refund the full amount, and you do not need to give a reason. Later, we refund part of the amount, in proportion to the unused days.

Refund Policy⁠
Are you affiliated with the developers of Happ?

No. Сверчок is an independent VPN service. Happ is a third-party app: it is made by another team, and our key is added to it the same way as a key from any other seller. We are not affiliated with the developers of INCY either.

Which app to choose⁠

Connect yourself first, then your family.

First the key and the guide for your device. Once the VPN works for you, send the guide to the person you are setting it up for.
