I’m wondering how to use iOS’s buildt in vpn creator to use nord vpn without downloading the app (issues with logging in). When I go to my nord vpn dashboard, I can see the password for my manual connection. I just want to make sure I do it correctly. Thank you!
You can set up a manual ikev2 connection, there is no need to download the app as you can do everything in your settings: https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/iOS/1153001402/How-to-connect-to-NordVPN-with-IKEv2-IPSec-on-iOS.htm
Don’t know what you use your VPN for, but you likely won’t be able to stream anything from Netflix or similar sites unless you use the app.
You can also import Nord profiles into the OpenVPN app but I didn’t have much luck streaming that way either.
If that’s not your use case, then go for it.
