How to use VPN

You've spent hours sifting through endless VPN reviews, but somehow you're more confused than when you started. You just want the fastest VPN for your Mac, yet every product claims to be 'the best,' and those comparison sites—can they really be trusted?

I get it. It’s frustrating when you only want something that works smoothly while keeping your online data safe. With so many options throwing marketing jargon at you, it’s hard to figure out what truly matters without falling for the fluff.

After testing 15+ VPN options this past year, I’ve zeroed in on what really counts when it comes to speed and reliability.

In this guide, I’ll cut through the noise to show you which features are genuinely worth your money and which are just gimmicks. Plus, I’ll share my honest picks based on real-world use, so you can save time and make a confident choice.

Spoiler: the best VPN for your Mac might not be the one with the biggest price tag.
