Features
Choose a location, or let Smart choose
ForestVPN opens on Smart location, which picks a place for you. You can instead search the list and choose one yourself. Each place shows the plan it needs and whether it is accepting connections.

How it works
- 01
Let Smart choose
By default, Smart location picks a place for you and keeps checking the routes to it.
- 02
Or search the list
Open Locations, search, and see for each place the plan it needs and whether it is accepting connections right now.
- 03
Know what can move
A place you choose stays where you put it. Only Smart location can move you to another place, and only when no route to the one it picked carries data.
What you get
- A searchable list instead of a fixed menu.
- A plain label on each place: the plan it needs and whether it is accepting connections.
- Smart location as the default, so you do not have to choose.
- Premium opens all locations. Free has a shorter list.
Limits and honest caveats
- We do not publish a count of places. The list shows what is available now.
- A place can stop accepting connections for a while. The list says when it does.
- ForestVPN does not move you from a place you chose to a different place on its own.
Plans
Free has a shorter list of places. Premium opens all of them.
Questions
- What does Smart location do?
- It picks a place for you, keeps checking the routes to it and moves you to another place only if no route to the first one carries data.
- What does not accepting connections mean?
- The place is not taking new connections right now. Choose another place, or let Smart location choose.
- Does a place I chose ever change?
- No. A place you chose is a destination and stays where you put it.
