Features Of A Good VPN Service for Android

March 14, 2013

An Android user would definitely want a VPN in a complete package. The best VPN is packaged with the splendid technical features, affordable rates, and connectivity protocols. A good VPN supports Jelly Bean 4.1 and 4.1.3 and costs around $10 per month. However, most of the VPN providers allow a free trial for at least a month. Here are some of the important features which can help you in selecting the best VPN for Android devices.

Basic Features of a Good VPN Service

The best UK VPN service, for instance, offers these basic features, which are ideal for all the operating systems.

Security

The best VPN software secures data and information of users and prohibits the external access to maximum extent. As security is the basic purposes of using a VPN server for your android, you should never compromise on this feature.

Anonymity

The VPN hides the identity of the Android user by converting the IP address into an anonymous address. Anonymity allows the users to access the forbidden links and sites.

Convenient Access To Server

The server of a VPN should allow the user to conveniently access the desired content. A poor server which hangs up frequently, or requires several attempts for the usage is definitely not a good choice for your Android.

High Speed

The VPN is generally not a heavy network, however, a heavy VPN can reduce the connectivity speed of your Android. Always check the speed of a VPN before selecting it for your Android device.

Engrossed Technical Features of a VPN For Android Devices

Basic Features of a Good VPN

These technical features are based on their support for Android devices.

Protocol

Protocol comes first than any other thing when selecting a network for any device. The VPN is available in several protocols like TLS, PPTP, L2TP. IPSec and OpenVPN etc. However, the technical experts of the Android say that SSL is the most commonly used VPN by the Android users. This analysis is made on the basis of the number of free trial downloads and the number of purchases of a VPN. However, SSL Protocol is a little expensive than the PPTP protocol. Therefore, SSL is used by the ‘highly Android’ people, whereas, others feel themselves pertinent to PPTP.

Server Locations

The server locations are important for the people who don’t normally travel a lot. Servers which support networking in a typical area, should carry all the internet supplies of that area. For example; a person who wants to access a Live TV in North America, should have a server which supports the Live TV internet supply in that area. Nowadays, there are modified VPN servers which support multiple locations at a time. Although these VPN servers are a bit expensive than the single location servers, however, these servers have proven to be more beneficial than the other servers.

Login Information

When you use a VPN server, you enter your personal information into it. It is very important that the security guard of your information should secure your personal information in its own network also. Most of the countries don’t require login information on the official basis. There’s a myth that the governments which allow VPN in their countries, collect public data from the VPN providers. A straight tip for login information issues is to read the policy of terms and conditions before logging into a VPN server.

Anti-Spyware

A VPN does not completely protect you from the spywares and malwares. You still need to secure yourself. However, there are several VPN which now provides a built-in scanning application for the Android devices. These applications scan the websites automatically to prevent any damage to your device.

Android Built-In

A latest trend in the VPN is that they support built-in Android device systems. There are several VPN which are built-in the Android devices or which are automatically installed in the Android device once they are downloaded. It is predicted that all the upcoming VPN servers will carry this feature.
