I just downloaded the 1.1.1.1 app on Android and don't see any options to pre-register for the VPN.

We've released but the Google Play Store and the Apple AppStore have some latency...

It's button on the top of the screen for iOS. Wasn't very obvious for me.

Kind of interesting. While blocking some other traffic to mitigate DDoS, Cloudflare could let through traffic from their VPN as they know those customers quite well.

Or maybe they could work with sites to remove annoying captchas from these trusted users.
