Why use NordVPN on your TV
By having NordVPN on your Android TV, you can enhance your streaming experience in a number of ways.
Secure your smart TV
Since your smart TV is connected to the Internet, it becomes vulnerable to the same cyber threats as your computer, tablet, or smartphone. NordVPN for Android TV uses the OpenVPN security protocol to encrypt your online data, so your sensitive data is protected from hackers and snoopers. When you use VPN, even your Internet service provider can’t see what you’re watching and collect data on your TV viewing habits.
NordVPN offers over 7000 servers in 118 countries
Defeat bandwidth throttling
Sometimes, Internet service providers (ISPs) differentiate traffic to slow down connection speeds for specific online activities. Streaming often tops the list, resulting in video buffering. This is a real practice, and you can find out more about bandwidth throttling here. Hardly anything can be more annoying than the latest episode of your favorite show getting interrupted, right? Well, now you can prevent it from happening by using NordVPN for your smart TV.
Watch your favorite content without any limitations.
