Private Internet Access Unleashes Long Awaited iOS App
VPN company Private Internet Access, or PIA in short as they prefer to be called these days, have launched their solution to the problem of making iOS both more secure and private. With all of us storing increasing amounts of sensitive data on our smartphones nowadays, Private Internet Access wanted to make it easier to enjoy their security solution in a mobile-friendly way as well. PIA’s iOS VPN app available for both iPhone and iPad users is an elegant solution to adding this extra layer of security to your mobile device. You simply download the app and create an account with Private Internet Access. After you log in with the app you will see a status screen, which is either green when connected to the VPN and secure, or red when you are not.
From this screen, you can also see and change the region from which you appear to be and change it. This feature is especially useful when trying to watch region-locked content on your iOS device. The app is free for you to download on the App Store (or Google Play Store if you're an Android user), however you will need to sign up for a trial account in order to use it. Private Internet Access’ monthly subscription is quite competitively priced at $6.95 per month, however you can save yourself some money by picking up a one-year subscription for $35.95 or just $2.99 per month.
iOS users seem to be loving the newly released app with average App Store customer ratings of 4.5/5 based on 16 reviews. These are in line with the generous scores customers have been giving PIA’s overall VPN service on our site, with an overall average user rating of 4/5 earning the service a top 10 spot in our VPN comparison chart.

You Say Hola? I Say Goodbye
They've been a mainstay of the browsers of many since 2008, but this week the folks behind the popular Hola Better Internet VPN extension have come under heavy fire as allegations have surfaced that users of their service are placing themselves at an extreme risk. A risk of what, I hear you tentatively ask? A risk of having malicious code executed on their machines by less-than-savory individuals, that's what.
For the less tech-savvy among you, Hola acts as a VPN that routs your web traffic through somebody else's connection to effectively mask your activity. This approach to providing you with an IP from another country to bypass geoblocks is different than that from other VPN Providers that rout your traffic securely through dedicated VPN servers in other countries. The plugin rose to prominence as a simple way for those without the requisite knowledge to bypass location-based content restrictions – accessing the Netflix library of another country by tricking it into, for example.
