It’s the digital world’s equivalent of your home or work mailing address. An IP address identifies your device among billions of others and locates it. Without an IP address, two devices can’t find and exchange information with each other.\nHow does this exchange happen? Pretty simple. First, you type the website's name, say, sample.com, in the search engine. The thing is that your device speaks the digital language and only understands numbers. So it looks for this website's IP address and then loads the page on the screen.\nIPv4 vs. IPv6 Addresses\nThe IP addresses appearance depends on which version of the Internet protocol you are using - IPv4 or IPv6. What's the difference?\nIPv4\nMost Internet service providers (ISPs) around the world use IPv4. It consists of four decimal numbers from 0 to 255, which are separated by dots. For example, 102.85.96.1. This is a pretty simple set of numbers that is easy to remember.\nBut that’s the sole advantage of IPv4. This IP version generates only 4.3 billion unique IP addresses because it uses just 32 bits. This is nowhere near enough since the Internet is swarming with users. So, IPv4 will soon exhaust itself because there won’t be any unique IP addresses left.\nIPv6\nThis is where IPv6 comes in. It was introduced to make sure the world would not run out of address numbers anytime soon. IPv6 uses 128 bits, which provides 3.4 x 1038 possible addresses. It consists of eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks, separated by colons, which looks like this: 2600:CC40:2200:0000:0000:0000:0000:0002.\nIf a number group in an address contains just 0, the protocol will most likely skip it to save space. Instead, colons will be added to show a gap. For example, 2600:CC40:2200::02.\nWhy is IPv6 not fully implemented?\nThe number of possible addresses is what sets IPv4 and IPv6 apart. The second offers a larger pool of IP addresses and is claimed to have better quality and connectivity. So, why hasn’t the world switched just to this IP version? Two main reasons are behind this:\nIPv6 is incompatible with IPv4. This directly affects users — if your device uses an IPv6 protocol, you will no longer access IPv4 websites and see most of your beloved content on the Internet.\nMost ISPs use IPv4 because, well, they still can — its number of IP addresses hasn’t run out yet. So until IPv4 completely exhausts its pool of addresses, we won’t see a complete shift towards its younger counterpart.\nPublic vs. Private IP Addresses\nLet’s say you have a home network made up of several devices — your computer, phone, tablet, and so on. Your router assigns a private IP address to each device on your network so that they all could identify each other. But when you connect to the Internet, your private IP address is replaced with a public IP address. Your ISP gives you this one, and it’s visible to website owners.\nSo, a public IP address identifies your device online, while a private IP address is used by a private network to connect securely to other devices within it. How do you find each one? Google “What is my IP address” to know what your public IP is. And to find your private IP, go to your device’s internal settings.\nMulti-Platform VPN Solution\nDownload VPN for PC, Android, iPhone, Mac, or Linux — up to 10 devices.\nExperience Free Internet with VeePN\nEnjoy the pros of top-grade encryption, user-friendly interface, and global network of\nVPN servers\n.\nOver 2,600 VPN servers\nAES 256-bit encryption\nDNS and IP leak protection\nAutomatic kill switch\nMultiple security protocols\nStrict No Logs policy\nSplit tunneling\nHighest speeds\nDouble VPN\nUnlimited bandwidth\n24\/7 live chat support\n10 devices per subscription\n192.8 Million Users, 10 000+ Positive Reviews\nExpert reviews\nApp store reviews\nRead more reviews\nFrequently Asked Questions\nDownload and install VeePN on your device, create an account and log in, then turn the VPN connection on — and that's it!

A Smart DNS is a service that reroutes your request through a proxy server when accessing a blocked website. Although a Smart DNS is faster than a VPN, it has significant drawbacks. Unlike a\nVPN\n, a Smart DNS doesn't hide your IP or encrypt your traffic, making it far less secure than a VPN.\nBefore using it, you might want to check if a\nVPN is legal in your country\n. Countries like Russia, Belarus, or China impose penalties for using a VPN. If you decide to use a VPN in a country where VPNs are banned, you need to choose your\nVPN provider\ncarefully.\nGet a Safer Online Experience\nwith a 30-day money-back guarantee\nHow about hiding your location and saving 78% today?\nProtect your self with VeePN:\nHidden location\nComplete protection\nGreater privacy online\nTrusted by\n192.8M people\nLimited Offer\nOffer ends in:\n24\n:\n00\n:\n00\n- 78%\n30-day money-back guarantee\nClaim this offer","attrs_markdown":"[![veepn home](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/logo-main.svg)](https:\/\/veepn.com\/)\n\n- VPN Apps\n  \n  Desktop \/ Mobile\n  \n  -

VeePN has automatically chosen the optimal browsing location for you to access the Internet safely and quickly. And if you want a specific browsing location, you can easily select it from a dropdown menu.\n\n### How will VeePN protect my device?\nVeePN [encrypts your traffic](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-encryption\/) [to hide your IP address](https:\/\/veepn.com\/anonymous-ip\/), and prevents third parties from [tracking your online activity](https:\/\/veepn.com\/prevent-tracking\/). VeePN protects your Wi-Fi connection when you use public wireless hotspots. Our [browser extension](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-chrome\/) also safeguards you from malicious websites. With a single [VeePN account](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/), you can protect up to 10 devices\\!\n\n### Is it safe to use VeePN on my devices?\nUsing VeePN is safe as it has never leaked data or compromised user security in any way. But don't just take our word for it! We encourage independent subject matter experts like [Cure53 to](https:\/\/cure53.de\/) [audit our services](https:\/\/veepn.com\/blog\/veepn-browser-extensions-results-from-independent-audit-about-robust-security\/) so anyone can see our commitment to security.\n\n### How many devices can I use at the same time?\nYou can use as many as ten devices on a single [VeePN subscription](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/).

Countries like Russia, Belarus, or China impose penalties for using a VPN. If you decide to use a VPN in a country where VPNs are banned, you need to choose your [VPN provider](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/) carefully.\n\n## Get a Safer Online Experience\nwith a 30-day money-back guarantee\n\n[Get VeePN Now](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/?utm_source=check-ip-6-site)\n\n![close icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/close-icon.svg)\n\n## How about hiding your location and saving 78% today?\nProtect your self with VeePN:\n\n- ![description icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/hidden-location-icon.svg) Hidden location\n- ![description icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/complete-protection-icon.svg) Complete protection\n- ![description icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/lock-icon.svg) Greater privacy online\n\n![veepn logo](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/veepn-logo-icon.svg)\n\nTrusted by   \n 192\\.8M people\n\n![limited offer icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/limited-offer-icon.svg) Limited Offer\n\n![timer icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/timer-icon.svg)\n\nOffer ends in:\n\n**24**:**00**:**00**\n\n**\\- 78%**\n\n![money-back guarantee icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/exit-offer\/money-back-guarantee-icon.svg) 30-day money-back guarantee\n\n[Claim this offer](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/?is-exit-offer=1)\n\n[![veepn home](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/logo-main.svg)](https:\/\/veepn.com\/)\n\nProducts\n\n- [Windows PC VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/download-vpn-for-pc\/)\n- [VPN for macOS](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-mac\/)\n- [Linux VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-linux\/)\n- [iOS VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-ios\/)\n- [Android VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-android\/)\n- [Chrome](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-chrome\/)\n- [Firefox](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-firefox\/)\n- [Edge](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/vpn-for-edge\/)\n- [Free VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/free-vpn\/)\n\nGeneral\n\n- [What Is a VPN?](https:\/\/veepn.com\/what-is-vpn\/)\n- [VPN Download](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-apps\/)\n- [Features](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-features\/)\n- [Pricing](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-pricing\/)\n- [VPN Free Trial](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-free-trial\/)\n- [Coupons](https:\/\/veepn.com\/coupons\/)\n- [Student Discount](https:\/\/veepn.com\/student-discount\/)\n- [VPN Servers](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-servers\/)\n- [Blog](https:\/\/veepn.com\/blog\/)\n\nHelp\n\n- [Support Center](https:\/\/help.veepn.com\/hc\/en-us)\n- [Contact Us](https:\/\/veepn.com\/what-is-my-ip\/)\n- [FAQ](https:\/\/veepn.com\/#faq)\n- [Privacy Policy](https:\/\/veepn.com\/privacy-policy\/)\n- [Terms of Service](https:\/\/veepn.com\/terms-of-service\/)\n- [Warrant Canary](https:\/\/veepn.com\/warrant-canary\/)\n- Cookie Preferences\n\nBenefits\n\n- [Stream Content](https:\/\/veepn.com\/access-content\/)\n- [Internet Privacy](https:\/\/veepn.com\/internet-privacy\/)\n- [Online Security](https:\/\/veepn.com\/online-security\/)\n- [Anonymous IP](https:\/\/veepn.com\/anonymous-ip\/)\n- [VPN for Gaming](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-for-gaming\/)\n- [Prevent Tracking](https:\/\/veepn.com\/prevent-tracking\/)\n- [VPN for Streaming](https:\/\/veepn.com\/streaming-media\/)\n- [Netflix VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/netflix-vpn\/)\n\nTools\n\n- [What Is My IP?](https:\/\/veepn.com\/what-is-my-ip\/)\n- [Hide Your IP](https:\/\/veepn.com\/hide-ip\/)\n- [DNS Leak Test](https:\/\/veepn.com\/dns-leak-test\/)\n- [Online SMS](https:\/\/veepn.com\/online-sms\/)\n\nCountries\n\n- [US VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-servers\/usa\/)\n- [UK VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-servers\/uk-vpn\/)\n- [Canada VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-servers\/canada-vpn\/)\n- [Turkey VPN](https:\/\/veepn.com\/vpn-servers\/turkey-vpn\/)\n\nEarn Money\n\n- [Affiliates](https:\/\/veepn.com\/affiliate\/)\n\n© 2026 Services provided by VeePN Corp., Panama.

It’s the digital world’s equivalent of your home or work mailing address. An IP address identifies your device among billions of others and locates it. Without an IP address, two devices can’t find and exchange information with each other.\n\nHow does this exchange happen? Pretty simple. First, you type the website's name, say, sample.com, in the search engine. The thing is that your device speaks the digital language and only understands numbers. So it looks for this website's IP address and then loads the page on the screen.\n\n## IPv4 vs. IPv6 Addresses\nThe IP addresses appearance depends on which version of the Internet protocol you are using - IPv4 or IPv6. What's the difference?\n\n![IPv4](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/pages\/what-is-my-ip\/opp-my-ip-1.svg)\n\n### IPv4\nMost Internet service providers (ISPs) around the world use IPv4. It consists of four decimal numbers from 0 to 255, which are separated by dots. For example, 102.85.96.1. This is a pretty simple set of numbers that is easy to remember.\n\nBut that’s the sole advantage of IPv4. This IP version generates only 4.3 billion unique IP addresses because it uses just 32 bits. This is nowhere near enough since the Internet is swarming with users. So, IPv4 will soon exhaust itself because there won’t be any unique IP addresses left.\n\n![IPv6](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/pages\/what-is-my-ip\/opp-my-ip-2.svg)\n\n### IPv6\nThis is where IPv6 comes in. It was introduced to make sure the world would not run out of address numbers anytime soon. IPv6 uses 128 bits, which provides 3.4 x 1038 possible addresses. It consists of eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks, separated by colons, which looks like this: 2600:CC40:2200:0000:0000:0000:0000:0002.\n\nIf a number group in an address contains just 0, the protocol will most likely skip it to save space. Instead, colons will be added to show a gap. For example, 2600:CC40:2200::02.\n\n## Why is IPv6 not fully implemented?\n![Why is IPv6 not fully implemented?](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/pages\/what-is-my-ip\/description-my-ip-2.svg)\n\nThe number of possible addresses is what sets IPv4 and IPv6 apart. The second offers a larger pool of IP addresses and is claimed to have better quality and connectivity. So, why hasn’t the world switched just to this IP version? Two main reasons are behind this:\n\n- IPv6 is incompatible with IPv4. This directly affects users — if your device uses an IPv6 protocol, you will no longer access IPv4 websites and see most of your beloved content on the Internet.\n- Most ISPs use IPv4 because, well, they still can — its number of IP addresses hasn’t run out yet. So until IPv4 completely exhausts its pool of addresses, we won’t see a complete shift towards its younger counterpart.\n\n![Public vs. Private IP Addresses](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/pages\/what-is-my-ip\/description-my-ip-3.svg)\n\n## Public vs. Private IP Addresses\nLet’s say you have a home network made up of several devices — your computer, phone, tablet, and so on. Your router assigns a private IP address to each device on your network so that they all could identify each other. But when you connect to the Internet, your private IP address is replaced with a public IP address. Your ISP gives you this one, and it’s visible to website owners.\n\nSo, a public IP address identifies your device online, while a private IP address is used by a private network to connect securely to other devices within it. How do you find each one? Google “What is my IP address” to know what your public IP is. And to find your private IP, go to your device’s internal settings.\n\n## Multi-Platform VPN Solution\nDownload VPN for PC, Android, iPhone, Mac, or Linux — up to 10 devices.\n\n## Experience Free Internet with VeePN\nEnjoy the pros of top-grade encryption, user-friendly interface, and global network of VPN servers.\n\n![lightning icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/lightning.svg) Over 2,600 VPN servers\n\n![password icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/password.svg) AES 256-bit encryption\n\n![scan icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/scan.svg) DNS and IP leak protection\n\n![wifi-slash icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/wifi-slash.svg) Automatic kill switch\n\n![folder-lock icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/folder-lock.svg) Multiple security protocols\n\n![eye-slash-hide icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/eye-slash-hide.svg) Strict No Logs policy\n\n![shuffle icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/shuffle.svg) Split tunneling\n\n![rocket-launch icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/rocket-launch.svg) Highest speeds\n\n![git-diff icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/git-diff.svg) Double VPN\n\n![infinity icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/infinity.svg) Unlimited bandwidth\n\n![chats-circle icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/chats-circle.svg) 24\/7 live chat support\n\n![desktop-tower-device icon](https:\/\/veepn.com\/images\/benefits\/desktop-tower-device.svg) 10 devices per subscription\n\n## 192\\.8 Million Users, 10 000+ Positive Reviews\n- Expert reviews\n- App store reviews\n\n[Read more reviews](https:\/\/veepn.com\/reviews\/)\n\n## Frequently Asked Questions\nDownload and install VeePN on your device, create an account and log in, then turn the VPN connection on — and that's it!

IPv4 Most Internet service providers (ISPs) around the world use IPv4. It consists of four decimal numbers from 0 to 255, which are separated by dots. For example, 102.85.96.1. This is a pretty simple set of numbers that is easy to remember. But that’s the sole advantage of IPv4. This IP version generates only 4.3 billion unique IP addresses because it uses just 32 bits. This is nowhere near enough since the Internet is swarming with users. So, IPv4 will soon exhaust itself because there won’t be any unique IP addresses left. IPv6 This is where IPv6 comes in. It was introduced to make sure the world would not run out of address numbers anytime soon. IPv6 uses 128 bits, which provides 3.4 x 1038 possible addresses. It consists of eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks, separated by colons, which looks like this: 2600:CC40:2200:0000:0000:0000:0000:0002. If a number group in an address contains just 0, the protocol will most likely skip it to save space. Instead, colons will be added to show a gap. For example, 2600:CC40:2200::02. Why is IPv6 not fully implemented? The number of possible addresses is what sets IPv4 and IPv6 apart. The second offers a larger pool of IP addresses and is claimed to have better quality and connectivity. So, why hasn’t the world switched just to this IP version? Two main reasons are behind this: IPv6 is incompatible with IPv4. This directly affects users — if your device uses an IPv6 protocol, you will no longer access IPv4 websites and see most of your beloved content on the Internet. Most ISPs use IPv4 because, well, they still can — its number of IP addresses hasn’t run out yet. So until IPv4 completely exhausts its pool of addresses, we won’t see a complete shift towards its younger counterpart. Public vs. Private IP Addresses Let’s say you have a home network made up of several devices — your computer, phone, tablet, and so on. Your router assigns a private IP address to each device on your network so that they all could identify each other. But when you connect to the Internet, your private IP address is replaced with a public IP address. Your ISP gives you this one, and it’s visible to website owners. So, a public IP address identifies your device online, while a private IP address is used by a private network to connect securely to other devices within it. How do you find each one? Google “What is my IP address” to know what your public IP is. And to find your private IP, go to your device’s internal settings.

DNS (Domain Name System) is used to associate computer hostnames with IPs. A Smart DNS is a service that reroutes your request through a proxy server when accessing a blocked website. Although a Smart DNS is faster than a VPN, it has significant drawbacks. Unlike a VPN , a Smart DNS doesn't hide your IP or encrypt your traffic, making it far less secure than a VPN. Before using it, you might want to check if a VPN is legal in your country . Countries like Russia, Belarus, or China impose penalties for using a VPN. If you decide to use a VPN in a country where VPNs are banned, you need to choose your VPN provider carefully.

Everyone online has a public Internet Protocol (IP) address — a unique numerical name assigned to every electronic device connected to the Internet. It’s the digital world’s equivalent of your home or work mailing address. An IP address identifies your device among billions of others and locates it. Without an IP address, two devices can’t find and exchange information with each other. How does this exchange happen? Pretty simple. First, you type the website's name, say, sample.com, in the search engine. The thing is that your device speaks the digital language and only understands numbers. So it looks for this website's IP address and then loads the page on the screen. ## How to Find My IP Address Here’s how you can look it up. This won’t take long. - Public IP - Windows 11 - Windows 10 - Mac - Phone ![Public IP](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/platform-my-ip-1.svg) ### Public IP To find your public IP address, go to the top of this page. There you’ll see your IP, the location you’re connecting from, and the name of your Internet service provider. You can also run quick DNS and WebRTC leak tests. ![Windows 11](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/platform-my-ip-2.svg) ### When connected to Wi-Fi: 1.

Unlike a [VPN](https://veepn.com/blog/how-does-a-vpn-work/), a Smart DNS doesn't hide your IP or encrypt your traffic, making it far less secure than a VPN. ### Is it legal to use a VPN? Before using it, you might want to check if a [VPN is legal in your country](https://veepn.com/blog/are-vpns-legal/). Countries like Russia, Belarus, or China impose penalties for using a VPN. If you decide to use a VPN in a country where VPNs are banned, you need to choose your [VPN provider](https://veepn.com/vpn-pricing/) carefully. ## Get a Safer Online Experience with a 30-day money-back guarantee [Get VeePN Now](https://veepn.com/vpn-pricing/?utm_source=check-ip-6-site) ![close icon](https://veepn.com/images/exit-offer/close-icon.svg) ## How about hiding your location and saving 78% today?

Everyone online has a public Internet Protocol (IP) address — a unique numerical name assigned to every electronic device connected to the Internet. It’s the digital world’s equivalent of your home or work mailing address. An IP address identifies your device among billions of others and locates it. Without an IP address, two devices can’t find and exchange information with each other. How does this exchange happen? Pretty simple. First, you type the website's name, say, sample.com, in the search engine. The thing is that your device speaks the digital language and only understands numbers. So it looks for this website's IP address and then loads the page on the screen. ## IPv4 vs. IPv6 Addresses The IP addresses appearance depends on which version of the Internet protocol you are using - IPv4 or IPv6. What's the difference? ![IPv4](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/opp-my-ip-1.svg) ### IPv4 Most Internet service providers (ISPs) around the world use IPv4. It consists of four decimal numbers from 0 to 255, which are separated by dots. For example, 102.85.96.1. This is a pretty simple set of numbers that is easy to remember. But that’s the sole advantage of IPv4. This IP version generates only 4.3 billion unique IP addresses because it uses just 32 bits. This is nowhere near enough since the Internet is swarming with users. So, IPv4 will soon exhaust itself because there won’t be any unique IP addresses left. ![IPv6](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/opp-my-ip-2.svg) ### IPv6 This is where IPv6 comes in. It was introduced to make sure the world would not run out of address numbers anytime soon. IPv6 uses 128 bits, which provides 3.4 x 1038 possible addresses. It consists of eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks, separated by colons, which looks like this: 2600:CC40:2200:0000:0000:0000:0000:0002. If a number group in an address contains just 0, the protocol will most likely skip it to save space. Instead, colons will be added to show a gap. For example, 2600:CC40:2200::02. ## Why is IPv6 not fully implemented? ![Why is IPv6 not fully implemented?](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/description-my-ip-2.svg) The number of possible addresses is what sets IPv4 and IPv6 apart. The second offers a larger pool of IP addresses and is claimed to have better quality and connectivity. So, why hasn’t the world switched just to this IP version? Two main reasons are behind this: - IPv6 is incompatible with IPv4. This directly affects users — if your device uses an IPv6 protocol, you will no longer access IPv4 websites and see most of your beloved content on the Internet. - Most ISPs use IPv4 because, well, they still can — its number of IP addresses hasn’t run out yet. So until IPv4 completely exhausts its pool of addresses, we won’t see a complete shift towards its younger counterpart. ![Public vs. Private IP Addresses](https://veepn.com/images/pages/what-is-my-ip/description-my-ip-3.svg) ## Public vs. Private IP Addresses Let’s say you have a home network made up of several devices — your computer, phone, tablet, and so on. Your router assigns a private IP address to each device on your network so that they all could identify each other. But when you connect to the Internet, your private IP address is replaced with a public IP address. Your ISP gives you this one, and it’s visible to website owners. So, a public IP address identifies your device online, while a private IP address is used by a private network to connect securely to other devices within it. How do you find each one? Google “What is my IP address” to know what your public IP is. And to find your private IP, go to your device’s internal settings. ## Multi-Platform VPN Solution Download VPN for PC, Android, iPhone, Mac, or Linux — up to 10 devices. ## Experience Free Internet with VeePN Enjoy the pros of top-grade encryption, user-friendly interface, and global network of VPN servers. ![lightning icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/lightning.svg) Over 2,600 VPN servers ![password icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/password.svg) AES 256-bit encryption ![scan icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/scan.svg) DNS and IP leak protection ![wifi-slash icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/wifi-slash.svg) Automatic kill switch ![folder-lock icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/folder-lock.svg) Multiple security protocols ![eye-slash-hide icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/eye-slash-hide.svg) Strict No Logs policy ![shuffle icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/shuffle.svg) Split tunneling ![rocket-launch icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/rocket-launch.svg) Highest speeds ![git-diff icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/git-diff.svg) Double VPN ![infinity icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/infinity.svg) Unlimited bandwidth ![chats-circle icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/chats-circle.svg) 24/7 live chat support ![desktop-tower-device icon](https://veepn.com/images/benefits/desktop-tower-device.svg) 10 devices per subscription ## 192\.8 Million Users, 10 000+ Positive Reviews - Expert reviews - App store reviews [Read more reviews](https://veepn.com/reviews/) ## Frequently Asked Questions Download and install VeePN on your device, create an account and log in, then turn the VPN connection on — and that's it!
