I am an iOS (iPhone) user myself, and not used Surfshack VPN, but from what I read online, it is an expensive option but does support connectivity to over 100 countries and does not have any bandwidth limitations, which is a positive.

Any reason why you would not consider a free VPN option, if any exist ?

Need also to consider the option around VPN server that’s located in one of the “Five Eyes” countries. Those are the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. Also, the “Nine Eyes” countries (France, Norway, Denmark, The Netherlands). as logging can be interesting.

VPN companies and servers based is say Panama can offer more privacy if required, but infrastructure and laws can be challenging.

Have a look at via the app store …

ProtonVPN, which has no data limits

 

I tried to connect to their site directly but received an invalid certificate warning, so not sure whats going on currently.

But you should still be able to gain access to the app via the Google app store

I heard expressVPN was meant to be very good but bit pricey but doesn’t record anything you do, I think just maybe date/time you connected purely for troubleshooting if issues but it keeps no data on sites visited etc.  NordVPn is another but not used either on a mobile.

I use NordVPN on a PC, I don’t have need for it on a mobile.  I was going to go expressvpn but nordvpn had a deal at the time too tempting to pass up.
