About Private VPN Proxy – Windscribe

One tap hides your IP address, encrypts your connection and blocks ads and trackers. 110 million+ registered users since 2016, and we've been acquired by exactly nobody.

faster than 91% of Tools apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About Fast VPN & Proxy - Windscribe
Windscribe is a fast, secure and private VPN. A single tap masks your IP address, encrypts your internet connection and stops ads and trackers wherever you connect. 110 million+ registered users since 2016.
WHERE A SECURE VPN HELPS
🏫 Blocked networks: Stealth and WStunnel make your connection look like ordinary web traffic and help unblock sites on restricted school, work or hotel Wi-Fi.
✈️ Travel: abroad, connect to a country of your choice and browse with its IP address.
🎮 Roblox VPN, gaming and streaming: pick a server close to you for lower ping and a steady, encrypted connection.
💼 Remote work: keep email, files and calls private wherever you work.
PRIVACY AND NETWORK SECURITY
🔒 Secure tunnel: run a WireGuard VPN tunnel or switch in one tap to IKEv2, OpenVPN (UDP and TCP), Stealth or WStunnel. AES-256 encryption on IKEv2, OpenVPN and Stealth. Your internet provider sees only encrypted network traffic.
🙈 No logs, by design. Our servers run on RAM, so nothing that identifies you is stored, and our transparency report shows that not one data request has been complied with.
🧱 Kill switch, set up in your Android settings: if the tunnel drops, your traffic stops with it.
🔀 Split tunneling: choose which apps go through the encrypted tunnel and which use your regular network.
CHANGE YOUR IP AND LOCATION
🌍 A global server network in 135+ cities in 69+ countries. Pick a location, tap connect, and your IP location moves to that country.
🏠 Back home, wherever you live: use an India VPN or connect to Mexico, South Korea, Vietnam, Turkey, Nigeria or Russia for local news, sites and TV.
⚽ Match day: pick Germany, France or the UK and follow the game the way fans at home do.
🎌 Anime nights: Japan for anime and Japanese sites.
🔐 Privacy first: Switzerland and Iceland locations for privacy-minded browsing.
🗽 USA VPN and more: servers across the United States, plus Canada, Brazil, Singapore and Australia.
⚡ Fast servers and modern protocols are built for steady speed in games, on Wi-Fi, 4G or 5G. Connecting is simple and easy: one tap from Quick Settings or an app shortcut.
🧭 Proxy tools: use it as a proxy VPN, proxy server or IP location changer, with strong encryption on top.
PUBLIC WI-FI AND AD BLOCKING
📶 Public Wi-Fi: cafés, airports and hotel hotspots can't see what you browse, and neither can hackers on the same network. Auto-Secure turns protection on the moment your phone joins new Wi-Fi or a hotspot, before you open anything.
🛑 Built-in ad blocker: known ad, tracker, phishing and malware domains are stopped at the DNS level before they load. Block ads and trackers with R.O.B.E.R.T.
PLANS
🌱 Starter: 10 GB a month once you confirm your email, with servers in 10 countries.
⭐ Pro subscription: unlimited VPN data and bandwidth, every location in 69+ countries and port forwarding.
🆔 Sign up with a username. Adding an email lets you reset your password.
👥 One account covers all your devices. No hidden fees. No shady re-billing.
