ExpressVPN: Fast & Secure VPN

VPNs have seen a great rise in use and popularity in the last decade. The main reason for the rise in their popularity has been the insistence of some countries to regulate accessibility over the internet and the lack of data privacy online. VPNs can effectively solve both these problems. Internet restrictions can be bypassed with VPNs as the VPN would assign you a new IP address from a different country and therefore, you would successfully bypass the restrictions placed on you in your country. Data privacy can also be easily tackled by VPNs as they allow you to roam anonymously over the internet as the main indicator of your online presence is your IP address. Since IP addresses are masked with VPNs, it is difficult for anyone to track your internet activity. You must, however, ensure that the VPN that you use guarantees data protection as there are some VPN services that actually track your activity and then use the data for ad targeting etc. You should also ensure that the VPN service should maximize your internet speed as some VPNs can essentially bring your internet speeds to a screeching halt. ExpressVPN: VPN for Privacy is known for its highly reliable and effectively demonstrated privacy policies while the app also lives up to its name by offering ‘express’ internet speeds.

The first thing you would notice once you launch the app is that you won’t be able to use it for free until and unless you sign up for a free trial. This means that the app offers you the chance to use the VPN app for seven days and if you like the app, you would have to buy a monthly or annual subscription to continue using it. This essentially means that the app isn’t free to use. While it would be great if the app could somehow offer a limited free version but the availability of a free trial indicates that the app is confident enough that once you would use the app, you would certainly find it good enough to cough up a good amount for a monthly or annual subscription.

The VPN app costs a fair amount but it delivers a lot of utility as well for the price it asks. For starters, the app offers servers in 94 countries with a total of 160 locations available where the app’s servers are present. This means that you would easily be able to find the right server as per your location. The availability of such a high number of servers in so many locations is one of the primary reasons that the app offers extremely reliable connections and fair internet speeds as well. The app has a good suggestion program that also tells you which server location would be best suited for you.

The VPN app also offers great setting features that enable you to keep yourself protected in all cases. The app comes with a kill switch that automatically stops all internet activities as soon as the VPN connection is switched off. This helps as you won’t stay anonymous anymore once the VPN is disconnected and therefore, you must only restart activities that you can do without data privacy and security protocols in place. There is also an excellent tunnel splitting feature which allows you to choose which apps would use the VPN connection and which won’t need the VPN. Similarly, the app also has a great setting feature that allows automatic VPN connection when you would join an untrusted hotspot or when the VPN itself would be interrupted or disconnected without user input.
