Free VPN gives you an easy way to create a virtual private network on your Windows PC. Many online services now use region locking that limits what you can do based on where you live. Whether you want to play a new game or stream a hit show, you might find that it's not available in your area. Using a VPN lets you change your IP address and use a server in a different area, which helps you get past those locks. Free VPN lets you create one of these networks for free.

Let's get the bad stuff out of the way first. Some users found that Free VPN was confusing to use. While some had a hard time setting up a VPN, others had a difficult time using the app online and choosing a server. It also doesn't have as many servers as similar apps do. You can still pick from servers in many different regions though.

Once you compare the pros of Free VPN to the cons though, you'll see why it's so popular. The app allows you to connect to a server in another region and use it as your IP address. It will mask the original IP address on your PC. Free VPN does a good job of hiding the secure information you want to keep hidden to prevent others from tracking you. Unlike other free apps that track your digital footprints, Free VPN will never track or log the things you do online or the sites you visit.

Free VPN has servers in 14 countries around the world. Not only can you pick one of those countries, but you can also select from 25 servers. The app uses strong encryption software that connects your PC to the server but hides your IP address. As a bonus, it works with other devices that use Windows as well as Android devices. If you have different browsers that you like to use, don't worry. The app is compatible with extensions that let you use all of your favorite browsers like Google Chrome. It even blocks your data from the browser to let you search and view anonymously.

Another nice feature is that it lacks the ads that you see on other VPN apps. Whether you watch a popular movie or listen to music, you will never see a single ad. It also doesn't cap your data or limit how often you can use it. Feel free to use Free VPN every time you use your device without facing a block. You'll also find that the app doesn't slow down your internet speed the way others can. To get around region blocks and surf the web anonymously, download Free VPN to your PC or another device.

Pros:

  • Helps you create a free VPN
  • Does not log any of your online activities
  • Free of ads
  • Lets you add browser extensions
  • Works on most sites

Cons:

  • Can be confusing at first
  • Doesn't have a lot of servers
