How TunSafe Simplifies WireGuard VPN Setup in Minutes

TunSafe: The Fast, Secure VPN for Windows and macOS

Overview

• TunSafe is a client implementation of the WireGuard protocol (point-to-point VPN), originally developed by Ludvig “Ludde” Strigeus.
• Available for Windows (GUI) and macOS (via builds or compilation); POSIX builds run from the command line.

Key features

• WireGuard-compatible configuration format and modern cryptography (ChaCha20/Poly1305, Curve25519).
• Fast, low-latency performance typical of WireGuard-based implementations.
• Simple config import (standard .conf files) and keypair generation.
• Optional obfuscation (TCP/TLS-like modes) in some TunSafe builds to evade DPI.
• Supports IPv4/IPv6, routing all traffic through the tunnel, and persistent keepalives.
• CLI service control on POSIX systems (start/stop/show).

Security & compatibility notes

• TunSafe is separate from the official WireGuard project (not endorsed by WireGuard); compatibility is generally high for basic WireGuard configs but some TunSafe-specific features (obfuscation) are not interoperable with stock WireGuard clients.
• Source code is available on GitHub under AGPL (contains other licensed components); audit or review recommended before deploying in sensitive environments.
• Keep software updated from official TunSafe releases or the GitHub repo to receive fixes.

Typical uses

• Desktop VPN client for personal or small-business WireGuard servers.
• Deployments needing protocol obfuscation to bypass restrictive networks.
• Advanced users who build from source to run on macOS or POSIX systems.

Quick start (Windows)

1. Download TunSafe for Windows and install (TAP adapter prompt).
2. Import a .conf file from your VPN provider or drag it into TunSafe.
3. Click Connect — logs show handshake and “Connection established.”
