PrivadoVPN is a VPN service provider with applications for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, AndroidTV and Amazon Fire TV along with custom configuration support for routers and Linux. PrivadoVPN is based in Switzerland and operates under Swiss privacy laws.[2][3]

Technology

PrivadoVPN offers server locations in 47 countries and 60 cities around the world.[4] The VPN includes features such as 256-bit-AES encryption, streaming support, kill switch, zero-log guarantee, unlimited speed, SOCKS5 proxy, split tunneling, and 10 simultaneous connections.[1] The VPN offers both free and paid tiers, with users paying to unlock all features. [5]

Reception

In 2021, Paul McNally of PCguide.com wrote: “The Privado[VPN] app has been made deliberately easy to get around and is all the better for that. It’s quite simple to turn it on and never, ever think about it again which is great, and also quite a relief that you can just turn on ‘internet safety’ and forget about it.”[3]

In 2022, PrivadoVPN was ranked as one of the top 5 VPNs available by TechRadar[6], Tech Advisor[7], PCMag[8], Netzwelt[9], and Macworld[10].

The app was praised by Tom’s Guide, as they gave PrivadoVPN “full marks across the board,” stating that the VPN offers “an impressive showing for a near-brand new service just beginning to get a foothold in the industry.” [11]

In a review on PCMag, PrivadoVPN was credited with having a generous free plan and affordable paid plans, but that it lacked additional security features and had not yet conducted a third-party audit.[12]
