Mac VPN: questions

Which app do I use on Mac?

The official WireGuard app. IPHush gives you the configuration file; the app does the rest.

Can I copy the file to a second computer?

No: each file belongs to one device. Add another device in your account instead, so the connection limit works as it should.

Which DNS does it use?

10.96.0.1, the IPHush resolver, answered inside the tunnel.

How do I change location?

Download the file of another location from your account and import it too; switch between them in WireGuard.
