Mozilla VPN Connect

Interact with the Mozilla VPN client from Raycast without even opening the Mozilla client.

What does it do?

• It checks that the application is installed and prompts you to download and install if it is not.
• It checks if you are logged in and opens the app if you are not logged in.
• It connects using the Mozilla VPN client to the Mozilla VPN service.
• It displays the current server the Mozilla VPN client is configured for.
• It fetches the current external IP and geolocates the IP's Country and city. It then refreshes when it connects to the VPN.
• It allows you to change the server from the UI. You select a Country and city if available and if there are multiple VPN servers, it will randomly choose one to connect to.

Requirements

• Must have a Mozilla VPN account
• Must have the Mozilla VPN client downloaded and configured.
