If you have a smartphone, tablet or laptop and maybe smart TVs you want to connect to a VPN at the same time You need a service that lets you connect to multiple devices simultaneously. We also consider the security protocols and encryption levels, and whether the team behind development makes it a point to patch any bugs that are reported.
NordVPN offers one of the most appealing interfaces for its desktop apps and is simple to use on smartphones as well. It provides a broad range of options and is great for streaming. The speeds are higher than those we’ve seen with other VPNs. There’s also a kill switch, split tunneling, AES-256 encryption, and a useful feature called Threat Protection that block trackers, ads and malware.
CyberGhost is another top performer in our tests, with an extensive network of servers across the globe, which includes many options that support torrents. It also boasts excellent speed and performance, and comes with great features like split tunneling (which redirects some apps through the VPN while leaving others to access the internet direct) and an ISP throttling detector. There are native apps for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS as well as an anchor Fire TV app and router compatibility.
Windscribe offers a vast array of connections, and it has the added benefit of being located in Switzerland and therefore not subject to any of the “fourteen eyes” surveillance systems. Additionally, it comes with a simple and effective Chrome extension that makes it a solid choice for mobile devices.
