unable to enable vpn feature in Android app

[Pilot735]

Hello, I'm using the latest version of the Firefox Android(158) on my phone, but no matter what, I can't see the feature on my phone. I'm using this feature on my PC very easily but that's not the case in my Android phone, can anyone from community or the Mozilla team help?

@Pilot735 : I'd suggest you look at: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/mobile-android-vpn 

First of, it says it is an "A/B rollout feature", meaning not everyone will gain access at the same-time.

Then check if the country you are in is currently supported:
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/mobile-android-vpn#w_what-regions-currently-support-built-in-vpn 

Finally ensure in the Firefox app on Android you have "Allow remote improvements" enabled under
Menu > Settings > Remote Improvements.  If that's turned off, the VPN won't get switched on between
major versions of Firefox for Android, only when a major release drops.  (So with that option enabled,
there is a chance you might gain access to the VPN sooner, essentially.)

You could try checking whether the VPN feature is available in your Firefox Android settings and whether it has any device or account requirements. Since it works on your PC but not on your phone, it would be helpful to know if the feature is still rolling out to Android users or if an additional step is needed. For users interested in creative mobile tools, the capcut app may also be worth exploring. Hopefully, the Mozilla team can clarify this issue soon.
