"A brand-new free VPN service built by the people behind ExpressVPN just dropped. On Thursday, ExpressVPN announced the release of EventVPN, a standalone free VPN for Apple mobile devices and computers built on ExpressVPN's infrastructure that doesn't compromise on privacy, impose usage limits or restrict bandwidth. The free version of EventVPN allows you to use one device at a time and includes access to servers in 35-plus countries, like the United States, Canada, Italy, Japan, Argentina, France, Singapore and the United Kingdom."
"It's available for MacOS, iOS and iPadOS users to download now in Apple's App Store. With EventVPN, users get many of the same advanced privacy protections offered by ExpressVPN, including a kill switch, an audited no-logs policy, a post-quantum resistant WireGuard VPN protocol and RAM-only servers. The app also includes a built-in speed test tool as well as in-app private browsing with Google, Ecosia, Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, DuckDuckGo and Brave."
"On top of its free version, EventVPN offers a paid, premium subscription plan that ditches the ads, allows for up to eight simultaneous connections and provides access to 125-plus locations for $10 a month or $70 a year. The company notes that an EventVPN premium subscription is not the same as a premium ExpressVPN subscription and lacks cross-platform compatibility and certain advanced privacy features that ExpressVPN offers, like split tunneling and Threat Manager."
"The catch is that EventVPN's free plan serves a 30-second ad in the app when you connect to and disconnect from a server or run a speed test. ExpressVPN says that the in-app advertising works with Apple's ATT and IDFA systems and uses a random identifier that keeps user data completely separate from the advertising process."
EventVPN is a standalone free VPN for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS built on ExpressVPN's infrastructure. The free tier permits a single device connection and provides servers in 35-plus countries without bandwidth or usage caps. Core privacy protections include a kill switch, an audited no-logs policy, a post-quantum resistant WireGuard protocol, and RAM-only servers. The app offers a built-in speed test and private in-app browsing with multiple search engines. The free plan plays a 30-second ad on connect, disconnect, or speed tests. A premium tier removes ads, supports up to eight simultaneous connections, and expands to 125-plus locations.
