Benefits of Using VPN Unlimited on Windows

Strong encryption algorithms

Our Virtual Private Network implements military-grade AES-256 encryption that reliably scrambles your traffic and makes it look like gibberish. As a result, any unauthorized parties could not decrypt and read your online data.

VPN servers all around the world

VPN Unlimited offers more than 3000 servers in over 80 locations worldwide. Thus, you can freely connect to the server that meets your needs, replace your real IP address with the IP of this server, and tear down any geo-limitations.

Protection from data leaks

Thanks to the Kill Switch feature, you shouldn’t worry about unforeseen data leaks. This option constantly monitors the status of your VPN connection and instantly restricts internet access if it detects some failures or disruptions.

Access to streaming services

Except for standard virtual servers, our VPN client provides 10+ dedicated servers for streaming. Connecting to them you can get around VPN blocking, gain access to the most popular streaming sites, and enjoy online videos without any restrictions.

Unlimited devices

With a single subscription, you can protect up to 5 different devices (If you wish, you can increase the number of devices an unlimited number of times). Our VPN solution is available for the following devices: iOS, macOS, Android, Windows, and Linux. You can install VPN Unlimited on WiFi routers and smart TVs as well.
