Following the December 17 announcement of its Qt framework-based desktop apps, ExpressVPN has launched the full redesigned Linux application, prioritizing Linux users while Windows enhancements remain pending.
ExpressVPN launched its completely redesigned Linux desktop app on December 18, 2025, as reported by Aaron Brown. This ground-up overhaul, built on the Qt framework, delivers an improved user experience with features like a card-based dashboard, integrated speed test, Dedicated IP support, and WireGuard protocol—detailed in the initial rollout announcement.
While macOS users can access a beta version with split tunneling and CLI tools, Windows users must wait longer for similar updates, with no specific timeline provided. This phased release highlights ExpressVPN's focus on cross-platform consistency and Linux compatibility amid ongoing VPN innovations.
