VPNs are legal to download and use in the vast majority of jurisdictions around the world and are widely used by individuals and companies to protect their data, including in countries with highly restrictive governments. Even where VPNs might be seen as discouraged, many governments tacitly endorse their use by officials, academics, or businesses to stay competitive in an interconnected world. It is simply not practical for countries to ban all VPNs.

Of course, illegal online activity is always illegal, whether you are using a VPN or not.

As more and more digital activity—including banking, browsing, and messaging—happens on mobile devices, it becomes increasingly essential to download and use a VPN to protect your data, especially when using public Wi-Fi. And people who like to stream video and music on their mobile devices will appreciate having all the same entertainment options on the go that they enjoy with a VPN at home.

We recommend that you connect to the VPN every time you go online to keep your data and browsing activity private and secure from your internet service provider, Wi-Fi operator, and others. A VPN scrambles your traffic in an encrypted tunnel so not even your ISP can read it, and it also lets you change your IP address, which prevents your real address from being used to identify, track, or locate you.

No, it cannot. Not only can a VPN mask what you download, it can also hide your browsing history, how long you’ve spent on a website, and what site you’re streaming from.

While your ISP will be able to see that there’s information being requested by your devices, it won’t be able to tell what that information is.

This depends on the brand and model of the smart TV. Some smart TVs allow for the installation of the ExpressVPN app directly onto the device, while others will need to be manually configured.

Smart TVs can also connect to VPN-enabled routers, providing full VPN protection.

In cases where your ISP has been throttling your internet connection, use of a VPN may actually improve your download speed. ExpressVPN is regularly ranked as one of the fastest VPN services in the world, and while use of a VPN can potentially slow down your internet connection, ExpressVPN users often do not notice a difference in speed.

Yes, as long as you select a legitimate VPN app with a good reputation. There are malicious VPN apps masquerading as genuine, premium ones. Some apps, especially free VPNs, might record your online traffic rather than keeping you private.

You’ll also have access to our 24/7 customer support via live chat and email.
