I2P is a utility for Android devices that offers you access to an anonymous decentralized network. The application enables downloading or searching files, as well as participating in forums, and doing other tasks within this network. The key feature of this network is complete confidentiality. Thus, both user locations and web pages are hidden, making restrictions and blockages impossible.
How It Works
This utility creates tunnels to enter the I2P peer-to-peer network. The homepage of this app displays a console that manages the connection. There is a tab that contains a list of tunnels created for the user. It is possible to access a list of addresses accessible within the I2P network. The app features anonymous sites such as email servers, forums, file-sharing services, digital libraries, torrent trackers, and chats.
Please note that the traditional web pages are absent in this network, as it operates entirely separate from standard internet resources. All information is encrypted during transmission from sender to receiver. Intermediate exchange nodes cannot decrypt or intercept the data, utilizing four levels of encoding.
The IP address does not exist in this network. As an alternative, here you can use cryptographic identifiers. The network implements a peer-to-peer architecture.
Requirements
This program usually runs in the background. Please note that you have to add it to the whitelist of applications responsible for the smartphone’s energy consumption to ensure I2P operates correctly.
