Global VPN gives you a fast, private, and encrypted internet connection from your iPhone or iPad. With one tap you connect through a secure tunnel that keeps your browsing private on any network — public Wi-Fi, mobile data, or home internet. Private by design All your traffic is routed through the GVPN tunnel before reaching the internet. No third party can intercept what you browse, stream, or download. DNS queries are resolved through trusted servers so your provider cannot log your activity. Real-time performance monitoring The connection status screen shows live download and upload speeds with a rolling graph so you can see exactly how the tunnel is performing. Session totals track how much data you have transferred since connecting. Account and subscription management Log in with your Global VPN account to access your personal subscription. The dashboard shows your remaining days, account expiry date, and connected server location at a glance. Clean, minimal interface The app is built around a single focused screen. Connect, monitor your speeds, and disconnect — nothing unnecessary in the way. How it works Global VPN establishes a GVPN tunnel connection to a secure server and routes all device traffic through an encrypted private proxy. The tunnel runs as a native iOS Network Extension, which means it continues working reliably in the background without draining your battery or requiring the app to stay open.
