Download the Best VPN App for Your Device

Generally speaking, yes — but only if you choose a credible VPN, like PIA. The internet is crawling with malicious services marketing themselves as legitimate options. However, they track your data, log your details, and use it for their own benefit.

If you choose PIA, rest assured all of our VPN apps are 100% safe to use. Regardless which device you want to connect, you’ll get military-grade encryption, a Kill Switch, No Logs policy, and much more.

If your ISP has a habit of throttling your connection when you stream, play games, or torrent, a VPN can help and boost your speeds back up. Connecting to VPN servers encrypts your data, so your ISP can’t see what you’re doing. As a result, it cannot slow you down based on your usage, letting you enjoy your regular speeds.

PIA offer the fastest VPN speeds, so you don’t have to worry about us slowing you down. We’ll bypass ISP throttling and keep buffering or lagging at bay whenever you connect.

No, it can’t. A VPN can hide your IP address as well as all of your internet activity, including what you download, stream, and search for. Your ISP may be able to see that you're using a VPN, but it won't be able to see what you do with it.

You have some options, but PIA continually outperforms most competitors. After 10+ years on the market, we’ve created a reliable and flexible product you can trust in. Want to see for yourself? Download PIA on any device and test it completely risk-free with our 30-day money-back guarantee. If you change your mind, we’ll give you a refund.

When choosing a VPN service, check its speeds and security features. Pay attention to encryption ciphers, VPN protocols, and extra protection, such as a kill switch or server obfuscation. A large server network is more likely to give you fast speeds. It also makes it easier to find a connection in your desired location every time.

PIA gives you all of the above with next generation server architecture and unparalleled security features. Don’t hesitate to contact our 24/7 Customer Support team if you want to learn more about how PIA can protect you online.

Generally speaking, yes, downloading and using a VPN to protect your digital identity is legal in most countries worldwide.

However, it’s a good idea to check local laws before downloading a VPN app, especially if you’re currently traveling abroad. Some countries including China, North Korea, Russia, and Turkey ban VPNs and you could face legal consequences for using one.
