VPN for Raspberry Pi
VPNmine has no Raspberry Pi build today. The Linux desktop app ships as a 64-bit x86 package, and a Pi is ARM, so it will not install there; an ARM build is not something we will promise before it exists. VPNmine also does not issue raw tunnel configuration files, so there is no manual command-line route either.

The state of it
Nothing to install today
No package, no APK, no config file. Any repository or image claiming to bundle VPNmine did not get it from us.
The Linux app is x86 only
The desktop client for Linux is published, but as an amd64 Debian package for Ubuntu and Debian on x86 machines. A Raspberry Pi is ARM, so that package will not install on one. Whether an ARM build follows is an open question we will answer when it ships, not before.
Know what a Pi is genuinely good at here
A Pi makes a fine self-hosted VPN server with software like WireGuard — a different job from connecting to VPNmine's network. If you want your own exit at home, that path exists and does not involve us.
Raspberry Pi questions
Can I run VPNmine on a Raspberry Pi?
No, not today. There is no Pi build, and VPNmine does not issue the raw tunnel configuration files a command-line setup would need. The Linux desktop app is published, but only as a 64-bit x86 package; a Pi is ARM, and an ARM build is not promised.
Can I download a config file and set the tunnel up myself?
No. VPNmine's tunnels are managed inside its apps rather than exported as configuration files. That is a real limitation for tinkerers, and we would rather state it than have you hunt for an export that does not exist. If it changes, the account panel will carry it.
Should I just run my own VPN on the Pi instead?
If what you want is an encrypted path back to your own home connection, yes — a Pi running WireGuard does that well and costs nothing but the hardware. It gives you your home IP, not an exit in 68 countries, which is the part a VPN service exists for. They are different tools.
