Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need a VPN on my iPhone?

If you want private browsing while on the go, then yes, you need a VPN for your iPhone or iPad. A VPN encrypts your internet connection to protect your data and enables you to browse safely on public Wi-Fi. Plus, a VPN can help manage other smartphone privacy concerns — it prevents anyone from seeing what you’re doing online, and it’ll also hide your IP address behind a new one. The benefits of using a VPN also include the ability to unblock websites and access your favorite content. Discover all the benefits of AVG Secure VPN for iOS with our 14-day free trial.

Does iOS have a built-in VPN?

The closest thing to this is Apple’s iCloud Private Relay, which helps to protect your privacy online by stopping others from seeing what websites you’re visiting and who you are. However, you likely want more comprehensive privacy and security that isn’t just limited to Apple’s Safari browser among other things. This is where our VPN app for iOS, AVG Secure VPN, can do a lot more for your device.

How do I set up a VPN on an iOS device?

We have useful information on how to set up a VPN on an iPhone or iOS device. In the meantime, here's how to set up AVG Secure VPN on an iPhone:

Download the AVG Secure VPN app from the App Store and install it on your iPhone.
Launch the app and create an account if you don't already have one.
Choose a server location from the list of available locations and tap the Connect button. This will establish a secure VPN connection.
Once you're connected to the VPN, you can start using the internet on your iPhone as you normally would. You’ll encrypt all your internet traffic by routing it through the VPN server.

Is AVG Secure VPN free for iOS?

You can try our VPN for iOS devices via our 14-day free trial. We only charge you if you choose not to cancel your subscription before the trial ends.

Does AVG Secure VPN work on iPads, too?

Yes, AVG Secure VPN is compatible with all iOS devices, including iPads. Setting up a VPN on your iPad is exactly the same as doing so on an iPhone.

Are free iPhone VPN apps safe?

Buying a VPN from a recognizable brand with a good reputation is the simplest way to get hold of a safe VPN for an iOS device. AVG Secure VPN includes bank-grade security and privacy encryption, and you can even try before you buy for free thanks to our 14-day free trial.

Is iCloud+ Private Relay a VPN?

Both VPN apps and Apple’s iCloud Private Relay share similar benefits. They hide your IP address and encrypt your connection, but that’s probably where the similarities end. Apple do not describe their new technology as a VPN on their support pages, and they’ve built the software specifically to work with their Safari web browser on iOS devices like iPhones and iPads. By contrast, AVG Secure VPN for iOS keeps your web traffic private and secure across all your iOS web browsers while hiding your IP address.

Does using a VPN slow down your iPhone's internet connection?

Using a VPN on any type of device means that you’re routing your device’s internet connection through the VPN server and encrypting your data. It’s possible for both these things to slow down your iPhone’s internet connection but even the fastest VPNs can mildly slow your speed.
