Two honest ways to use Free VPN
Free VPN has always been free to start. That isn't a trial that runs out. In our mobile apps, you watch ads to earn VPN time and keep using it as long as you like. Premium is an optional upgrade for people who would rather not stop for ads.
| Free access | Premium | |
|---|---|---|
| Account or email needed | No | No (purchases go through your app store) |
| Browsing logs | None | None |
| How you get VPN time | Watch ads to earn time in the mobile apps | Ad-free VPN time |
| Regions and Services | Available in the app | Available in the app |
| Auto Connect, Boost Speed, Super Ad Block | Varies by platform and version | Included Premium tools, varying by platform |
| Cost | Free | Regional price set by your store country |
Features and free-time rules can differ between mobile and desktop clients. Check the app on your device for exactly what's included. The Windows page describes the desktop free-session model.
Free access is right for you if…
- You connect occasionally, for example on hotel or café Wi-Fi, and short ad breaks don't bother you.
- You want to try Free VPN on your own networks before spending anything.
- You need a no-signup VPN quickly and don't want to enter payment details.
Our public Wi-Fi guide shows a simple routine for those moments.
Premium is worth it if…
- You keep the VPN on most of the day. Ad-free VPN time means no stopping to earn more.
- You want quieter apps. Super Ad Block filters known ad and tracker requests across apps while you're connected, not just inside one browser.
- You join lots of new networks. Auto Connect means one less thing to remember on campus, at work or while traveling.
- Privacy only works if it's on. A plan you don't have to think about is a plan you'll actually use.
What Premium costs where you live
Premium is now priced around local purchasing power on iOS and Android. The standard annual plan is lower in all 175 store regions on our schedule, by at least 55%. Some of the deepest cuts: our US-dollar reference price fell 88% for India, 87% for Vietnam, 86% for Pakistan, 84% for Indonesia and 80% for Egypt. In those regions the annual reference price is now $24.99, about seven cents a day.
Those are reference prices, not local checkout quotes. Stores convert them to local price points and may add tax. The price lab breaks each region down by year, month, week and day. Your App Store or Google Play country decides your plan, not your VPN server, as regional pricing explained shows.
A quick way to decide
- Install Free VPN and connect using the free tier for a few days. No account is needed.
- Notice how often you top up. If earning VPN time interrupts you often, Premium will feel different.
- Open Premium and check your local price, billing period and renewal terms.
- Choose the annual plan if you'll use it all year. It usually costs less per month than paying monthly. Compare the two in the app.
- Remember you're in control. You can manage or cancel Premium any time in your app store's subscription settings.

Free or Premium questions
Is Free VPN's free access really free?
Yes. In our mobile apps you watch ads to earn VPN time. There's no trial countdown and no payment details needed. Premium is optional if you prefer not to watch ads.
Does Premium collect more data than free access?
No. Neither free access nor Premium requires a Free VPN account, and we don't log your browsing activity on either. Purchases are handled by your app store. See our privacy policy for advertising details on the free tier.
Does the cheaper regional price mean a cut-down Premium?
No. Regional plans include the same Premium tools for that plan and platform. Only the price reflects your region.
Can I switch from free to Premium later?
Yes. Open Premium in the app whenever you're ready. If you cancel later, free access is still there.
Is the annual or monthly plan better value?
For year-round use, the annual plan usually works out cheaper per month. If you only need Premium for a trip or a busy season, monthly gives you flexibility. Compare both in the app for your region.
