pride itself on being the \u201conly 100% free, 100% fast &#038; 100% anonymous VPN in the world,\u201d and a look at their website does not reveal a pricing section. Another thing you will observe from their website is that the VPN service has been made to be undetectable to most of the popular web services on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p>The Urban VPN has extensive location support cutting across both North and South America, Europe,\u00a0 Asia, Oceania, and Africa. In terms of OS support, Urban VPN has got support for Windows, Android, iOS, and macOS. It is also available as a browser extension for Google Chrome, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h3 id=\"hotspot-shield\" class=\"ftwp-heading\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hotspot_Shield\"><\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotspotshield.com\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong>Hotspot Shield<\/strong><\/a><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotspotshield.com\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><picture class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10346 perfmatters-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-300x127.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-768x326.jpg.webp 768w\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20424'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201000%20424'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Hotspot Shield VPN Homepage\" width=\"1000\" height=\"424\" data-src=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-768x326.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<\/picture>\n<noscript><picture class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10346\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-300x127.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-768x326.jpg.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg\" alt=\"Hotspot Shield VPN Homepage\" width=\"1000\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/royadata.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Hotspot-Shield-VPN-Homepage-768x326.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/>\n<\/picture>\n<\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Hotspot Shield is not in the league of many of the VPN services described in this article.

Interestingly, on PC, there is an option to toggle VPN on and off depending on if you want that feature.<\/p>\n<p>One thing you will come to learn about this is that it is completely free to use. It adheres to a strict no-log policy, allows you to enjoy unlimited downloads, and does not even have a paid tier.
