About this app

AVG Secure VPN & Proxy for Android helps you stay safe and protect your identity and information while connected to the Internet. As long as AVG Secure VPN is on, any data you send or receive is protected. Even on public Wi-Fi. Connect to an optimal location via proxy VPN for fast and reliable web surfing.

Browse privately and anonymously with AVG Secure VPN.

Choose your location to unlock apps, content and websites which are geo-restricted.

Our private encryption VPN ‘tunnel’ prevents hackers and thieves from stealing your data via public/open WiFi hotspots.

VPN on/off dashboard widget - a simple one-click widget for turning on your secure connection. Best for quick hotspot shield security.

Geo-restricted content access is made possible by changing your IP address (virtual location) using our VPN proxy servers.

WHAT IS A VPN? A Virtual Private Network (VPN) protects the data you upload and download from the internet, provides security for any data you send from your device, and anonymizes your internet activity.

HOW DOES VPN WORKS? Our VPN service protects you from data theft by using a virtual encryption shield ‘tunnel’ to secure your public/open WiFi connections. Once secured, your communications are impossible to spy on.

Private, anonymous browsing – when using AVG Secure VPN Proxy, your internet connection will appear to originate from a different virtual location. Use it to hide and anonymize your banking logins, chats, emails and payments.

Unblock apps, content and websites - some websites and content providers block access from certain locations. With AVG VPN Secure Proxy for Android, you can unblock these. Choose from a variety of servers, located in numerous countries and locations to change your IP address.

Some countries prohibit or restrict the use of VPNs. Countries in which our VPN solutions are not currently recommended for use: Belarus, China, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Oman, Turkey, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates.

Works but not always. There have been times, usually when I'm on holiday overseas, when it fails to connect. I installed this app primarily for use overseas so this is disappointing. I got the app on a 60 day free trial. At the time I was told an annual subscription would cost £18.99. My free trial comes to an end in a few days and I have now been advised that it will cost me nearly £60 to renew ! So will probably cancel and look for a different app.

While it seems to do a decent job mostly, it often turns itself off on my android phone. It will only switch back on when I reboot. Really annoying. Also it severely hampers downloads. I must turn it off to complete. I am quite unhappy with this app and cannot get a refund. I suspect other VPN options may be more robust. I did as the responder recommended but it still requires me to reboot. Advice helped. I'm too late to get a refund, it seems you can only get one within 30 days. Bad experience

Keeps switching itself off, refusing to go back on. Since I wrote that, it's behaved fairly well. However, recently people have moved next door, VPN switched off, and will not go back. VPN is needed for exactly the situation where it has turned out to be useless. I've lost 3gb at a time when I have not been using the net. So. Useless in protecting me.
