Snowflake allows you to connect to the Tor network in places where Tor is blocked by routing your connection through volunteer proxies located in uncensored countries.

Snowflake uses a technology called WebRTC, which is commonly employed by videoconferencing software. This helps mask your use of Tor from censors by making it appear as though you’re on a audio or video call instead.

If you would like to circumvent censorship, then you will need to download a Tor-powered app such as Tor Browser or Orbot. If the app is not connecting and it appears that the connection is still blocked, you should be able to unblock the connection by going to the app’s settings and enabling your connection to run through Snowflake.
