Download an Android VPN and Boost Your Smartphone Security

PIA lets you switch on your Android VPN with a tap of a button. The app automatically encrypts your connection and runs your traffic through a remote VPN server, masking your IP address so you can explore the internet without being followed around by your ISP and other snoopers.

Millions of people rely on a VPN to protect their mobile device and their personal data. Because they know ISPs, websites, the government, and other third parties track your browsing activity on Android phones just like they do on other devices.
PIA VPN shields your traffic with iron-clad encryption, so outsiders can't see what you’re doing online. You can also use a VPN on your phone to stay safe from cyber attacks on public Wi-Fi.

Samsung doesn’t have a built-in VPN, but Android phones come with built-in VPN software. It’s not great, though, as it uses outdated protocols and requires some tech know-how to set up. You'll also still need to subscribe to a VPN provider to set up a VPN connection.

Instead, download the PIA VPN app for your Samsung smartphone or tablet. It’s quick, easy, and safe to set up and use. It also supports the latest VPN protocols, including the ultra-fast WireGuard®.

If your VPN isn’t working, it could be due to a poor internet connection, outdated VPN software, or an issue with the VPN server.

You can try the following methods to fix it:

- Check your internet connection

- Switch to a different VPN server

- Head to settings and update your VPN

- Uninstall and reinstall the app

- Add your VPN to your Antivirus "Allowlist"

- Contact Customer Support

PIA VPN is super easy to set up on your Android device, but if you ever have any questions, our friendly Customer Support team is standing by 24/7.

If you install a VPN on your phone, you can encrypt your traffic and change your IP address. This keeps ISPs, the government, and other third parties out of your business. It also lets you unblock websites on restricted networks and safely change your virtual location.

That said, not all VPNs have the same privacy and security standards. Some use outdated encryption and may collect and even sell your search history, violating your privacy.

When you install PIA VPN on your phone, you can rely on 256-bit AES encryption to keep your traffic private. Moreover, our court-proven No Logs policy guarantees we never record your online activity.
