That said, you can also set this up on a router, allowing you to have any device connected to that, hidden behind the safety of the VPN.

With up to five devices available for use at the same time, there's not that many more device apps needed really. If you don't want those, then there's not much you're missing out on. That's useful but is a far cry from the many options available on lots of other VPN offerings, including console and Amazon Fire Stick apps to name a few. The VPN apps, which are available for desktop and mobile come in the forms of Windows, Mac, Android and iOS – plus there's now one for Android TV. HotSpot Shield is based in over 80 countries and 122 cities with its many servers, all of which are P2P torrent friendly. That's not the fastest we've seen it but does place it above high-end ExpressVPN at time of testing. A UK test, on a 600 Mpbs line, via a European data centre, came in at up to 210 Mbps with a low of 200 Mbps. This works internationally too, thanks to many servers dotted about the world. That puts this at double the speed of many of its competitors. In the US we tested using a 600 Mbps connection, using US servers, and found that speeds were as fast at 410 Mbps with a low of a still speedy 330 Mbps. Putting this to the test, those claims have proven to be accurate.

HotSpot Shield is a very, very fast VPN thanks to the use of its own proprietary Catapult Hydra protocol. At Hotspot Shield (opens in new tab) Testing and performance
