The Complete LetsVPN Sign-Up, Login and Account Recovery Guide

Actually, you don’t necessarily need to register the first time you use LetsVPN: after downloading the app, it identifies your device, so you can connect and buy a plan right away. You only need to register on the client’s “My Account” page if you want to share your plan across devices or recover it later when switching phones. Just enter an email (or username) and set a password; some versions send an email verification code, and once you enter it and set your password, you’re done. Registration itself is free and doesn’t require a credit card. We do recommend linking an email you can actually receive mail at, so you can recover your account down the road.

Email alone works - a phone number is not required. To register with LetsVPN you only need an email (or username) and a password. Some versions send an email verification code; once you confirm it and set your password, you are done. Some versions also let you choose either email or phone together with a verification code. Signing up is completely free, and no credit card is required. We recommend using an email address you check regularly and can reliably receive mail at, so that you can get a reset link if you ever forget your password.

For basic use, LetsVPN actually doesn’t require registration at all. After you download the app, device recognition lets you connect and buy a plan right away, with no email needed. However, if you want to recover your membership after switching phones, or share it across multiple devices, you’ll need to register and link an email (or username) plus a password. One heads-up: if you relied purely on device recognition and never linked an email, there’s no account to recover after you reinstall on a new phone. That’s the pitfall overseas Chinese users hit most often when changing devices, so it’s best to link a real email.

A quick note: our materials only cover LetsVPN (快连). LaoWang VPN is not the same product as LetsVPN, so you’ll want to verify that on your own. If you actually mean LetsVPN, yes, you can register from Hong Kong: basic use requires no account and works through device recognition right away. When you need to sync across devices or recover a membership, just register with an email and password on the “Me / Account” page in the app. This works overseas as well as in Hong Kong and Taiwan, regardless of where you are.

Yes, you can use it right away with no registration. LetsVPN uses a unique-device-identification system, so after you download the app you can connect and buy a plan without an email or phone number; basic use does not force you to log in. You only need to create an account and sign in when you want to carry your membership to another device, or recover it after switching phones or reinstalling. So for everyday use on a single device, just download and connect.

It depends on your LetsVPN plan: the Personal plan allows 5 devices, the Professional plan 10, and the Enterprise plan has no device limit. You can view and manage your connected devices under "Account Settings." One subscription is shared across multiple devices, so you only pay once. Note that the official download page also states "up to 5 devices online at once per account" - go by what your in-app Account Settings actually shows.

Yes. A single LetsVPN account supports multiple devices online at once (5 devices on the Personal plan, 10 on the Pro plan), so just sign in to the same account on your phone and computer and use them together. Your membership and remaining time are tied to the account, and you only pay once. The catch is that you need to register an account first (email and password) so that a plan purchased on device A can be shared when device B signs in to the same account. You can manage your connected devices under Account Settings.

Yes, LetsVPN has them. New users who enter a referral code get an extra 3 days of use. Codes floating around the community, such as 141763162 and 141663162, are just other people’s referral IDs, not an official one-of-a-kind code. Watch out for platform differences: only the Android and Mac clients have an entry field that grants the full 3 days; iPhone and iPad have no entry field at all; Windows has a field but only gives 1 hour. The workaround is to register on Android or Mac, enter a code to claim your 3 days, and then sign in with that same account on iPhone or Windows to share it.

Work through these checks in order: make sure your email (or username) and password are spelled correctly and your local network is working; if you forgot your password, use “Forgot password?” to get a reset link at your registered email and change it; if the app is stuck, restart it or update to the latest version, and if that doesn’t help, uninstall and reinstall. If you still can’t log in, you can reach out through the in-app live chat (advertised as 24h). One more thing to note: as of April 2026, LetsVPN has discontinued its mainland China operations, so if you’re in mainland China, connection failures are usually because the service has stopped there rather than an account problem.

On the login screen in the LetsVPN app or on the official site, tap “Forgot password?” and enter the email you used to register. The system will send a reset link to that inbox, and you can set a new password by following the instructions in the email. This only works if you linked a real, working email address when you signed up. If you originally relied solely on device recognition without linking an email, there is no account to recover. If the message does not arrive, check your spam folder, and if it still does not show up, contact in-app support.

First, check a few things in LetsVPN: make sure your phone number or email is spelled correctly, look in your spam or promotions folder, and wait 1-2 minutes before tapping Resend. Most versions actually send the verification code by email, so if you chose email registration, focus on your inbox and spam folder. If it still doesn’t arrive after trying these steps, reach out through the in-app live chat (advertised as 24h) for help.

Most of the time it isn’t blocked — it has just landed in your spam folder. First check your spam or promotions folder, confirm you typed your registration email correctly, wait 1-2 minutes, then tap “Resend.” Switching to a major email provider (like Gmail) is usually more reliable. If you’ve tried all of that and still get nothing, contact in-app live support to sort it out. The verification email is sent for free — there’s no charge.

After you install the APK and open LetsVPN, you actually do not need to rush to register first - device identification lets you connect and use it right away. To register, go to the My/Account page and sign up with an email (or username) plus a password. The nice thing about Android is that it has a referral code field: entering a referral code during sign-up (such as 141763162) gets you 3 extra days, a perk available only on Android and Mac. We recommend registering and entering the code on Android first, then signing in on your other devices to share it.

You cannot find it because Apple only lists LetsVPN outside mainland China, so it does not show up in the mainland China App Store. First solve the download: you need an Apple ID registered outside mainland China (Hong Kong is the region most tutorials use) before the app will appear in the App Store and let you download it. After downloading, just register and sign in inside the app using your email and password. Note: the iPhone version has no field for entering a referral code, so if you want the 3-day bonus, register and enter the code on Android or Mac first, then sign in on the iPhone with the same account.

Yes, the iOS download step for LetsVPN requires an Apple ID from outside mainland China (guides commonly use the Hong Kong region), since the app doesn’t show up in the China store. If you don’t have a non-China account, you have two options: create a new Hong Kong Apple ID, or change your existing Apple ID’s region to Hong Kong (set the payment method to None, enter any Hong Kong billing address, and use 852 plus an 8-digit phone number), then sign in again in the App Store and you’ll be able to search for and download it. The download is a download-layer hurdle and is separate from registering a VPN account, so once it’s downloaded you still register with an email and password as usual.

Our materials do not spell out a specific throttling speed for the free version, so you would need to test it yourself to confirm. What we can say: new users get a free trial period (sources disagree on its length, with both 1 hour and 72 hours mentioned; go by what the app actually shows you), and entering a referral code adds 3 more days. Community testing reports that LetsVPN has relatively few nodes, so automatic server selection can land you on a crowded server and feel inconsistent. That is a node-level experience issue rather than a clearly defined free-tier throttling rule.

New LetsVPN users do get a free trial, but the length varies by source and isn’t consistent yet: the official main site currently says “72-hour free trial,” while several mirror sites and hands-on tutorials say “1 hour for new users.” The 72h figure may be the newer or promotional version, and 1h is the older or default one, so go by what your currently downloaded app actually shows. On top of that, entering a referral code (such as 141763162, requires Android or Mac) can get you 3 extra days.

Yes, but with limits. Basic use requires no registration and connects via device recognition, and new users also get a free trial period (1 hour or 72 hours, depending on the source - go by what the app shows), with an extra 3 days available if you enter a referral code. During the trial everything works normally; once it expires you need to buy a plan. One note: as of 2026-04, LetsVPN has discontinued its operations in mainland China, and whether you pay or not does not change that. If you are in Southeast Asia or elsewhere overseas, it works as usual.

Pay attention to the timing here: on 2026-04-28 LetsVPN officially announced it was ending its business operations for mainland China, stating that after nearly 20 days of troubleshooting it still couldn’t connect reliably due to network blocking, and it set 2026-04-08 as the starting point for refunds. So once you’re back in mainland China you most likely won’t be able to connect, and that’s not a problem with your account or settings. The service has simply shut down there. Your account itself still exists, and you can keep logging in and using it normally in Southeast Asia or elsewhere overseas without any impact.

First confirm your local network is working, then try these in order: switch to a node in a different region, update the app to the latest version, uninstall and reinstall if that doesn’t help, check whether your firewall or security software is allowing LetsVPN through, verify that your system clock is accurate, and finally restart the app and your device. Note: if you’re in mainland China, the service was discontinued there as of 2026-04, so a page that won’t load is most likely due to the service being shut down rather than a settings problem. If you’re overseas, just work through the troubleshooting steps above.

First confirm your local network is working, then try this: restart the app and your device, update to the latest version, and if that fails, uninstall and reinstall. Check that your system clock is accurate and that your firewall or security software is allowing LetsVPN. On Windows, freezing and crashing is often caused by missing system runtime libraries (such as msvcr120 and other VC++ runtimes) or by a network-adapter initialization failure, so install or repair the runtimes and restart the software. If it is still stuck at login and you are in mainland China, note that mainland China operations ended in 2026-04.

As long as you registered an account before, your LetsVPN membership stays tied to that account and will not be lost. After installing the app on your new phone, sign in to the same account in the client using your registered email (or username) and password, and your remaining time and membership will be restored. If you forgot your password, tap "Forgot password?" to receive a reset link by email. However, if your old phone relied purely on device recognition and you never linked an email, there is no account to recover - this is the most common pitfall when switching phones, so be sure to link an email on your new phone first.

Registration and login themselves are free; you don’t have to pay just to register, and no credit card is required. Basic use of LetsVPN doesn’t even require registration, you can connect via device recognition alone. Registering is only for sharing across devices and recovering your account when you switch devices, and all it takes is an email and password. What costs money is buying a membership plan, which is a separate matter. New users also get free trial time, and entering a referral code can earn you 3 extra days.

Yes, that is exactly how LetsVPN’s multi-device sharing is designed to work. Your membership and remaining time stay with the account, so a plan you buy on device A is shared the moment you sign in to the same account on other devices, and you only pay once. The number of devices allowed online at the same time depends on your plan: 5 for the Personal plan, 10 for the Pro plan, and unlimited for the Enterprise plan. You can view and manage your connected devices under “Account Settings.” The one requirement is that every device signs in to the same registered account.
