Because bridge addresses are not public, you will need to request them yourself. You have a few options:



 * Visit [https://bridges.torproject.org/](https://bridges.torproject.org) and follow the instructions, or

 * Email [bridges@torproject.org](mailto:bridges@torproject.org) from a Gmail, or Riseup email address

 * Request bridges from within Tor Browser.

 * Send a message to [@GetBridgesBot](https://t.me/GetBridgesBot) on Telegram. Tap on 'Start' or write `/start` or `/bridges` in the chat. Copy the bridge address and on:

      * Tor Browser Desktop: Click on "Settings" in the hamburger menu (≡) and then on "Connection" in the sidebar.

        In the "Bridges" section, from the option "Enter a bridge address you already know" click on "Add a Bridge Manually" and enter each bridge address on a separate line.

      * Tor Browser Android: Tap on 'Settings' (⚙️) and then on 'Config Bridge'. Toggle on 'Use a Bridge' and select 'Provide a Bridge I know'. Enter the bridge address.
