Best VPNs for iPhone ExpressVPN.
ExpressVPN is just solid across the board. It has a 4.6 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store. It has over 3,000 servers in more than 90 countries.No matter where you are; there's going to be a server proximate to you. You're going to have the access that you need. It also gives you access to its customer support team with 24/7 live chat support. It even has had an independent company run a security audit to make sure they're maintaining your privacy. When it comes to the features and functionality of the ExpressVPN mobile application for the iPhone, it's simple. It's straightforward.
It interfaces directly with your WiFi, your cellular connection, giving you that VPN capability on any app that you happen to be using, and it's just one tap to connect. You have a list of servers, so many different servers in so many other locations to tap into. If you're one of the people that want to customize your protocols, you can do that directly in the app.[background music]Gabe: Well, hold on.

Next on our list of best VPNs for iPhone is IPVanish.
IPVanish has a 4.6 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store. People seem to be enjoying their experience on the iPhone.It also has over 1,300 servers in more than 75 countries. Many of those servers are P2P servers, so you can have lots of access to whatever you happen to need from your VPN. It's just going to be an affordable VPN. You're looking at less than $60 for an annual contract, so basically, $4.87 a month if you're willing to go ahead and pay it all out front. When it comes to using IPVanish, it's straightforward. You're going to jump into the application and hit that quick connect, which will immediately give you your IP address, your VPN status, and your location. If you want to have a little bit more, you can see a real-time Internet traffic graph right in the app. Finally -- and this is where I think IPVanish separates itself from its competition -- it gives you ten devices that you can connect simultaneously. Those ten devices don't have to be one account owner. You can have one for your children, one for your mother-in-law, all available and all connected at the same time with IPVanish.
THE next VPN on our list of best VPNs for iPhone is ProtonVPN.
ProtonVPN has a 4.1 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store. It also has one of the best free versions because there's no bandwidth cap. It has 610 servers in over 44 countries. On top of that, I like that they have a transparency report where they detail all the requests made to them as a VPN service to give out people's information.ProtonVPN gives you five devices that can connect simultaneously. They only manage their network of servers, so you get the peace of mind of knowing that it's all under one roof essentially. Finally, I like that they have ProtonVPN Secure Core, which routes all of your traffic through multiple servers to give you that extra layer of security and privacy.
Next on our list for best VPNs for iPhone is CyberGhost.
CyberGhost has a 4.4 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store. That's with thousands upon thousands of reviews. It also has over 6,000 servers in 90 countries. Wherever you need to access, wherever you happen to be, you're going to be able to get it with CyberGhost.Also, if you're willing to commit to them, they're eager to make it worth your while. You're looking at $2.50 per month if you sign up for a three-year contract. When it comes to using CyberGhost on your iPhone, it's pretty straightforward. There's a quick connect/disconnect button,
so you can tap and immediately be connected to an optimized server or wherever you happen to be in the moment. On top of that, it shows you your local WiFi network to make sure that you're attached to the right one. I know I often will not even end up being on the WiFi network that I'd like to be on. Then my final point to make about CyberGhost and my favorite, to be completely honest with you, is the fact that it has servers that are optimized for various streaming networks dependent on the country. For example, I lived in the francophone world, so I occasionally liked to watch Canal+.CyberGhost makes it easy for me to manage Canal+ because it'll just have the server, and it says it optimized for Canal+. I can go right there. If I'm in another place and I want to be on Disney+, it will display the server that's optimized for Disney+ right there. That's an excellent element and lovely addition to the CyberGhost mobile application.
The final VPN on our list today of best VPNs for iPhone is NordVPN.
NordVPN is everywhere. You've probably seen their commercials on television, but what you do need to know is that they do have a 4.6 out of 5-star rating in the Apple App Store. On top of that, they recently had a considerable security audit to ensure that they maintained their privacy standards, which came back positive. They also have a live chat option available 24/7. If you're willing to make a little bit of a commitment to NordVPN, you can get that price down to as low as $3.50 a month, and that comes with their three-year contract. When it comes to using NordVPN on your iPhone, you get six simultaneous connections, and your iPhone is just one of them. If you do want to use your iPhone and you even want to use Siri,
NordVPN does interface with Siri. On top of that, inside of the app, there is a toggle on/off for something called CyberSec.CyberSec blocks ads and malware while you're on the Internet.The final element that I want to talk about with NordVPN is the fact that you have access to a ton of specialty servers. Not only do you get your standard servers around the world, but you also get P2P servers and Onion over VPN servers.No matter what you need and how you need to access it, NordVPN has got you covered.[background music]Gabe: Now I want to answer some frequently asked VPNs questions, beginning with our first question, are VPNs legal?Yes,
VPNs are legal in the United States, but they're not legal in every country and every jurisdiction. Go ahead and head over to securitybaron.com to learn more about the legality of VPNs around the world. The second question is, what do VPNs do?VPNs create a private tunnel between you and the Internet and hide your IP address, covers up your web traffic so that you can do whatever you need to do online privately. The final question is, what does VPN stand for on my iPhone?When you're looking at your iPhone in the settings, it does say VPN. That stands for Virtual Private Network. That setting allows you to toggle your VPN on and off.[background music]Gabe: All right, we've gone over a lot today as it pertains to the best VPNs for iPhone.Let's go ahead and refresh your memory on each one.
