The fastest mobile VPN for your phone and tablet
Stay safe wherever you go with our user-friendly VPN for mobile devices.
Why get a VPN for your phone or tablet?
A mobile VPN, or virtual private network, ensures that your data is safe whether you’re using home Wi-Fi, a local cafe hotspot, or your mobile network. It improves your online security and privacy, so you can go online with more peace of mind on every device.
What does a mobile VPN do?
A VPN secures the data traveling to and from your device — whether that’s your laptop, smartphone, or tablet. It uses encryption to scramble your data, making it unreadable to snoopers, hackers, and ISPs. A mobile VPN is VPN software that you’ve installed on your mobile device, and it’s a reliable way to boost your online safety on your phone.

Get NordVPNWhy mobile VPNs are a must
Most of us practically never let go of our phones. We do everything on them — check emails, watch YouTube vlogs, scroll through social media, play video games, and shop online. That’s why securing your phone is just as important as protecting your personal or work computer.
We’re also more likely to connect our phones to public Wi-Fi at airports, coffee shops, and hotels. Doing so puts our sensitive data at risk because these networks are often unsafe, making them the perfect target for hacking. Mobile VPN apps secure the internet connection on your device, meaning that you’re protected at all times — even on public Wi-Fi.
Encrypt your traffic on iOS and Android
NordVPN uses security protocols that offer strong encryption for your devices.
iOS

Cybersecurity for your smartphone
Mobile VPNs offer the same level of security and privacy as traditional VPN services but are tailored for mobile devices. They automatically adjust when you move between different Wi-Fi networks or out of the coverage zone, keeping you safe even if your connection is interrupted.
When your mobile is protected by NordVPN, you can connect to unsecured public Wi-Fi networks without worrying about anyone spying on you. NordVPN shields your IP address from prying eyes while you’re on the move, and lets you access your favorite content from home when abroad.
Protect ten devices at the same time
Alongside apps for iOS and Android, NordVPN provides protection for macOS, Windows, and Linux devices. You can have up to ten simultaneous connections with one NordVPN account, meaning a secure mobile, secure laptop, secure smart TV, and others.
