Get started using VPN on your mobile devices
Protecting your online privacy and bypassing censorship by using a VPN on your iPhone, iPad, or Android device has never been more important.
- Connect your mobile device to an encrypted VPN server
- Encrypt the connection between your device and the VPN server
- Unblock social media and other geo-restricted or censored apps
With Proton VPN, you can stay private when browsing on your mobile devices using our free VPN apps for iOS, iPadOS, and Android.
Why use a VPN on your mobile device?
As mobile device usage has overtaken desktop usage, protecting your mobile data from prying eyes has become more important than ever. A VPN prevents your ISP and mobile network provider from seeing your information, and so prevents untargeted mass surveillance by your government.

High-speed connections with VPN Accelerator
Proton VPN offers unparalleled speed performance thanks to our use of a combination of 10 Gbps servers, advanced VPN protocols like WireGuard, and VPN Accelerator technology that can improve the browsing speeds on your mobile by over 400%, even over long-distance connections.
NetShield Ad-blocker
When using a VPN, your ISP can’t see which websites you connect to and websites you connect to can’t see your real unique IP address. Proton VPN’s NetShield Ad-blocker feature on iOS and Android blocks DNS queries to tracker and malware domains, and is effective at blocking many other ways of tracking you online.
