The INCY app
INCY — the app and a MaskNet subscription
You can download INCY for free below: official links to the App Store, Google Play, and the developer's builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux. On its own the app is empty — there is nowhere to connect until a subscription is added to it. That subscription is what MaskNet sells: it works in INCY and is added with a single button.
A subscription starts at 150 ₽ per month on the annual plan.
How it works
The app and the subscription are separate
INCY is built by a separate team. It is a client: it can bring up a protected connection, but it does not own servers and does not sell access. The servers are the service you connect to.
Hence the confusion behind searches like “download INCY VPN”. You can download INCY, and it will install. There will be nowhere to connect until the app has a subscription.
MaskNet is that service. We run the servers and sell the subscription, and you install either of the two supported apps: Happ or INCY.
Common question
Why MaskNet has no app of its own
Most services work this way, and the reason is simple. Ready-made clients update more often, support every platform at once, and do not depend on app store review. On top of that, the subscription price does not have to cover the Apple and Google commission, which reaches 30%.
It makes no difference to you: you install the app once, and the subscription is added with a single tap.
Subscription
No key to enter by hand
Guides for other services tell you to “copy the key” or “paste the subscription link”. The MaskNet key is built into the subscription, so that step isn't needed.
Your account has an “Add subscription” button. You press it, and INCY opens and picks the subscription up. It works the same on a computer and on a phone.
Next to it your account shows a QR code. It is there for another device: if you are connecting something other than the device your account is open on — a second phone, a laptop, a relative's tablet — point that device's app camera at the code.
Nothing to copy, paste, or store. Nothing to lose, and nothing to forward to someone else by accident.
