VPN guides by device
VPN setup isn't the same everywhere. An app on Android, split-screen behaviour on iPad, router-level for Smart TVs. We explain which approach fits which device.
VPN for Android
Android phones and tablets
Reduce network-level exposure on public Wi-Fi and limit how directly activity is tied to your IP — on Android, a VPN can be a useful privacy layer.
VPN for iPhone
iPhone
Apple's privacy features are not a device-wide VPN; a VPN can still reduce network-level exposure on an iPhone when it is configured and verified correctly.
VPN for iPad
iPad
Bigger screen, more streaming, more public-network use — the iPad's attack surface isn't the same as the phone's.
VPN for Smart TV
Smart TV (Samsung, LG, Android TV, Apple TV)
Most smart TVs can't run a VPN app — the right answer is to put the VPN on the network, not the TV.
My device isn't here — what now?
Windows and macOS have native desktop apps from every provider; one-click install. On Linux, WireGuard-based setups are the most common. For game consoles (PS5, Xbox) and smart-home devices, router-level VPN is the only practical path — the router section of the Smart TV guide applies to them too.
