AVG Secure VPN
The powerful online privacy app for iPhone
and iPad — Try it FREE

It’s a service that allows you to create a secure and private internet connection over a public network such as the internet. It works by encrypting your internet traffic and routing it through a remote server, which helps to protect your online privacy and security.

When you connect to a VPN on your iPhone, your internet activity is encrypted, making it difficult for anyone to intercept or view your data. This is particularly useful when using public Wi-Fi networks, which are often unsecured and can be vulnerable to hackers and other malicious actors.

Some of the benefits of using VPN on your iPhone include increased privacy and security, the ability to hide your IP address, access content that may be restricted in your region, and bypass internet restrictions imposed by governments or other organizations.

You can also protect your online privacy and keep your internet activity hidden from your internet service provider (ISP), government agencies, or other third-party entities.

To use a VPN on an iPhone, you first need to set it up. Here's how to set up AVG Secure VPN on an iPhone:

1. Download the AVG Secure VPN app from the App Store and install it on your iPhone.
2. Launch the app and create an account if you don't already have one.
3. Choose a server location from the list of available locations and tap the “Connect” button. This will establish a secure VPN connection.
4. Once you're connected to the VPN, you can start using the internet on your iPhone as you normally would. All of your internet traffic will be encrypted and routed through the VPN server.

Sometimes, you might want to disable your VPN for various reasons. Here’s how to turn off VPN on an iPhone in 3 easy steps:

1. Go to “Settings” on your iPhone.
2. Tap on “VPN.”
3. Toggle the switch next to the VPN connection to the "off" position.

To stay safe while using public Wi-Fi, using a VPN such as AVG Secure VPN can help. It encrypts your internet connection with 256-bit AES encryption, the same type used by banks around the world, which secures your data and keeps it private from anyone who might be trying to spy on you, including your ISP, hackers, or even the government.

In addition to using a VPN, it's important to be aware of the risks of free Wi-Fi, which can include malicious actors intercepting your data or injecting malware onto your device.

Another important feature to look for in a VPN is a kill switch, which can prevent your device from accessing the internet if the VPN connection is lost. This can help protect your privacy if your VPN connection is unexpectedly disrupted.

By using a VPN and being cautious of free Wi-Fi risks, you can help protect your online privacy and keep your personal information safe while using public Wi-Fi.

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.
