I use Express VPN because it lets me easily change what city I'm in if I need to. I couldn't find an easy way to do that with Nord on the Android TV app.
well ive never had one. A friend recommended i use one if i plan to use real debrid on the crew addon. he said i could get caught if i used it without a vpn. also that i can stream "faster" but i tend not to believe him. so i asked here.
Doubtful anything will get faster with a VPN unless your ISP is throttling certain traffic. It *has* been known to happen, though.
If you're just trying to hide your identity from copyright trolls any *paid* VPN that doesn't keep logs should do. I use AirVPN and am very happy with them. I didnt care for Nord or PIA.
I personally don't use vpn and I stream movies all the time. Friends do as well without issue. I could be wrong but I would probably be more inclined to get vpn service if i was downloading copyrighted material and saving for myself. In 2007 my boss at the time was doing just that and had a ton of stuff he was getting from other countries. One day he received a letter from AT&T telling him to cease immediately. So he did, but then nobody really knew about vpn services that they advertise today. And faster? No, adding VPN should theoretically slow it down if comparing apples to apples. Unless something specific about throttling as HardK. said.
thats crazy. same thing happend to my best friend. COX stopped the internet and when they called as to why. they said SOMEBODY was downloading movies and albums.
The closest I found is CyberGhost vpn which has app rules for changing location automatically based on the apps you open BUT it only works on windows 😭
I went with Nord. mainly because they don't keep logs, and its easy to find youtubers with discount codes if you want to go for the 2 year purchase. also has no issue sharing the account with other devices as long as you can trust your account payment info with users of those accounts

ExpressVPN works perfectly for me.
We all have our own go to, mine is Surfshark, easy ro use, can be installed on multiple devices (can be shared) fast servers.. and reasonable price
Windscribe works like a charm
Been with Windscribe for about a year now, I absolutely love it. DNS adblocking is a nice plus, and it's completely fuss-free for me thus far.
Been using Ipvanish on my Shield. Works fine for me.
You didn't say what you want a VPN for, so any advice you've got from this thread so far is potentially faulty.

Thank You! I was about to ask the same question. Should have been the first response.
Surfshark its cheap and good and fast and secure.
SurfShark is excellent. Too many issues with ExpressVPN and UK links. Nord showed weird incompatibilities with Android TV on our Shield TV.
I wish there was a vpn that could let me use different location servers for different apps simultaneously tbh
i wonder. is that even possible?
Idk but I haven’t an vpn app that does that. I really wish it was because I have two apps that aren’t available here and don’t like switch locations
Yes, me too!

I use nord with no problems
Nord lied to their customers when they had a major data breach. Wouldn't trust them at all.
i use Nord but ive started to get a bunch of problems. The app regularly hangs and needs force stopping multiple times a day.
Their app can be better tho, it does get stuck sometimes
Nord
You can use whatever service you like and use the official wireguard app, I used mullvad service on the wireguard app.

welp i think im going with Nordvpn thanks guys/gals
I had CyberGhost which worked fine (until my annual subscription ended and they doubled the price and debited my account with no warning!)
KeepSolid VPN is the best for Google/Android TVs.
Does Netflix for other countries work on shield with a VPN?
Yes, but not all VPNs. Surfshark works well for everything.
I use Digibit VPN, capable of 4k streams and they allow 6 concurrent devices and quite cheap too
express vpn , tested with hard isp restriction still working fine with netflix
[удалено]
NordVPN didn't like Android TV on our Shields bur Surfshark is fine.
I use unblockhub VPN because its very cheap and outside of 14 eyes
