About V2Ray HTTP

V2Ray HTTP is a VMess-style connection that is usually simpler than WebSocket or gRPC variants. It is useful when you need a basic V2Ray connection format supported by common clients.

Protocol note: Compared with WebSocket TLS or gRPC TLS variants, V2Ray HTTP is usually simpler, but it may provide fewer transport-layer disguise options.

Before you start: prepare your RaceVPN V2Ray HTTP account, keep the connection information ready, and make sure your internet connection is active before importing or connecting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about using V2Ray HTTP on Android.

Can I use the same V2Ray HTTP account on many devices?

It is better to use one account for one device only, especially when the server applies connection limits.

Why does my V2Ray HTTP account stop working after a few days?

RaceVPN free accounts have an expiration period. Create a new account when the previous one has expired.

What should I check if V2Ray HTTP does not connect?

Check the account expiry, server status, imported URL, client support, and whether system proxy or tunnel mode is enabled.
