Do you use a VPN app on your cellphone? Which one and any issues?

[joeinid]

I’m thinking about downloading and installing a VPN on my iPhone. If I’m somewhere with open WiFi, I usually turn it off and just surf via my cellular data service.

I was recommended Turbo VPN. You can even pick where it looks like you are coming from.

Thoughts?

This is my friend’s google page with the VPN on. A little scary for me

I am still rockin my Motorola Razer so can't comment fully. I use Ivacy at home and you are allowed to install it on up to 10 devices including phones.

On the PC I can choose country or city to connect to or allow it to choose.

Right now the deal is 5 years at $1.33 / month

We have used express VPN for 4 years with no issues. Can use it on your laptop and cell phones.

I am interested in what people have to say on this. Thanks for the good topic, Joe. I will follow along.

All these of these look great. I played around a little with ExpressVPN. Very cool. Wonder why I waited so long to try one. I’ll check out the others too.

Thank you so much so far.

A lifetime subscription to FastestVPN is now just $40

Joe.......Sometimes certain things seem too good to be true (or legit). I have to wonder about a $40 lifetime subscription, how secure it really is, particularly since FastestVPN is a Cayman Island-based company. I may be barking up the wrong tree, but this deal seems suspicious to me.

I know, I just thought I’d throw it out there. One of the other three mentioned seem great. I’m still playing around with them.

That looks great too.

I use NordVPN when travelling. I'm an avid Android fan tbh so I have to have the best privacy tool that VPNs can offer. This guide that by far, these are the best VPN apps for mobile users:


1. NordVPN
2. ExpressVPN
3. SurfShark
4. PIA
5. TunnelBear

I ended up buying ExpressVPN and have it installed on everything. It seems pretty solid.

Joe.......Annual price? Notice any speed change?

[joeinid]

Hi Dan,

It ended up costing $99.95 for 12 months (8.32 per day) with 30 day money back guarantee. I don’t remember if the trial was a week or a month but it seems pretty quick. I’m not doing anything that requires a lot of speed but for the most part, I don’t even think about it. I don’t notice any hiccups. I do have unlimited data on my Verizon plan and sometimes turn off WiFi depending on what I’m doing. I usually keep the VPN going. I only connect to known WiFi also. I don’t know if this is the safest way to use it but I’m hoping.

Dan, as long as you use their "smart connection" location or one of the recommended locations I can't notice a huge difference in speed. Over here we use a 4g router so it's pretty important that we keep as much speed as possible. I do notice if the wife changes the location to somewhere in the USA instead of Europe while using our magic jack phone. 95% of the time it's because of our crap internet not Express VPN. If we were using 100mbps internet or faster like what's available in the states I can't imagine there would be a huge difference between most location selections.

Thank you, gentlemen. I'm still procrastinating.

hello joeinid,
If you're looking for vpn service with many features and pocket friendly then i would suggest you to use PureVPN because currently they are offering halloween deal as-well in which there lowest price is just $1.65.
other vpns are also good but not pocket friendly.

[Oscar]

This is my friend’s google page with the VPN on. A little scary for me

Strange, the flag indicates that the VPN is connected to Finland but the Google page is in Arabic?

I do use VPN on my cell phone. Both on unsecure WiFi networks or to do some torrenting. My current VPN provider is OK at an acceptable price. I guess almost all VPN services nowadays support both cell phones and Mac/Windoes.

[joeinid]

I’ve been using ExpressVPN and think it’s working well enough.

[joeinid]

Thank you for the recommendation. That looks good too.

another vote for express vpn.

[Ritmo]

Very good recommendations here. I personally use Norton 360 to protect my home iMac and all of our portable devices (including VPN).

No one should connect to public WiFi without a VPN.

[joeinid]

I would trust Norton too.

I use ExpressVPN and like it, too. I used Norton for the last two years, but I prefer ExpressVPN. I also use it when I connect my laptop to any public WiFi network.

Express vpn here as well.

I put HotSpot Shield on my wife's and my phone and laptop in May of 2019 before we went to Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania.
It works wonderfully.

Anytime we log into a personal account we are told there is no recognition of the device. We are sent an email or text code to verify the device we are using.

Only downside is looking for products online near you. I show up as being in odd places no where near our home. That is not hard to work around though.
