Now that you have chosen which VPN provider you will go with it is time to install the VPN onto your phone. Don't worry, this can be done with a very simple three step process.Download your VPN of choice from the Apple store or the Google Play store. These apps are generally very easy to setup, simply click install and wait for the app to appear on your home screen.Once the VPN app is properly installed go to your home screen, and click on the VPN app.If you choose to go with a paid for VPN you will be asked to create an account to sign up for the VPN service. After creating an account, you will be asked to pay for your preferred level of subscription. I would suggest that you find a VPN service that offers a 30-day money back guarantee, this way you can try it out and see if you like it before you commit to paying seriously for it.VPN stands for "Virtual Private Network" and describes the opportunity to establish a protected network connection when using public networks. VPNs encrypt your internet traffic and disguise your online identity. This makes it more difficult for third parties to track your activities online and steal data. The encryption takes place in real time.How does a VPN work?A VPN hides your IP address by letting the network redirect it through a specially configured remote server run by a VPN host. This means that if you surf online with a VPN, the VPN server becomes the source of your data. This means your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and other third parties cannot see which websites you visit or what data you send and receive online. A VPN works like a filter that turns all your data into "gibberish". Even if someone were to get their hands on your data, it would be useless.
