I recently updated my iPad and I noticed I now have a VPN toggle. Does anyone know what this does?
It turns on VPN if you have any app installed.
Okay, so I need a VPN app? Thank you
Yes, to make the VPN work, you need to have a VPN profile, which needs a VPN app to be installed. I have several VPNs installed, some are free, which is useful when you want to go the free way and just use it to access websites locked in your country/region. The paid ones are for security.
Thank you. To be honest I want one so the websites I use can’t be seen. Would a free one work?
Yes, it does. I use Free VPN and 1.1.1.1. or Warp VPN. They’re free and work well in these cases. If you want VPNs for privacy (many professionals need it, especially while sharing confidential infos), then a paid one is the go.
The VPN you use is Warp?
It is called that. You can search for free VPNs in the App Store and find a few. Either will work, since App Store is much more polished.
I got the Warp app and it seems to be working. Is there any way to verify it’s working the way it should?
Well, try to get into a website that you previously couldn’t, there must be some, no matter where you live in.
Okay, seems to be working. On a few Japanese adult sites
