Browse anonymously for hours on end
LomVPN is a free-to-download utilities and tools app that lets users enjoy an anonymous browsing experience. Thanks to its unlimited internet speed and bandwidth, you can bypass firewalls set by the government, school, or workplace for easy access to previously region-locked content or blocked websites. Most of all, it doesn’t require users to sign up.
Unfortunately—if you have no plans of purchasing LomVPN's monthly or yearly subscription—you can only connect to servers in the United States or the Netherlands. You’ll also need to exercise patience as connecting to your preferred global server can take several attempts.
Safe to use
Whether free or paid, the right VPN app enables you to surf the depths of the internet worry-free. If you don’t mind shelling out money for premium features, LomVPN is the right one for you. Like NordVPN, you can use it when connecting to public WiFi networks in dining establishments and airports. As public networks are vulnerable to hacking, using it helps safeguard your data from cybercriminals.
The app’s free version limits your server choices to the United States and the Netherlands—whereas the premium option lets you connect to other global servers. Since it encrypts your data and hides your IP address, third parties like your local government won’t be able to track your online activity—making it safe and private. Thanks to its strict no-logs policy, the app won’t collect, store, or transfer data to third parties.
Besides that, you can enjoy unlimited speed and bandwidth for endless internet browsing. In addition, you can enable certain apps to bypass firewalls by tapping the slider beside the application name. However, bear in mind that the tool will block you if it detects that you’re pirating copyrighted material via BitTorrent and P2P (peer-to-peer) file sharing. The FAQ section, though, does a great job of giving troubleshooting and usage tips.
Can be a hassle
Overall, LomVPN is safe to use as it prevents the monitoring of online behavior and protects you from the risks associated with connecting to a public network. It has a no-logs policy, too, so you can be sure that your data won’t be collected or transferred to third parties. Unfortunately, the server choices are too thin for free users, and it takes several tries to connect to a server.
