No DNS or WebRTC leaks: When we tested out Astrill VPN for DNS or WebRTC leaks, which essentially translates to whether or not it showed our Internet Service Provider our domain names, or websites visited, or private IP addresses, we found no leaks on either Mac or Windows, keeping our web activity safe and sound.

When we wanted to encrypt our email browser but use a public network on some innocent Buzzfeed pursuing, we routed the email through Astrill VPNвЂ™s server, but kept Buzzfeed public to lower our bandwidth.

Split tunneling: Sometimes, we donвЂ™t want to encrypt all of our web traffic, especially since using a VPN always slows down our browsing speeds.

Typically, about 15 percent of users of a free trial that doesnвЂ™t require a credit card end up signing up for a service compared to 50 that do require credit cards, 2 so we feel good that Astrill VPN isnвЂ™t trying to trick us into paying for a service we didnвЂ™t know we signed up for.

Although we ended up signing up for a month and more, we loved that we could try out Astrill VPN for free for a week without even having to put in our credit card.

Free trial: Testing out so many VPNs, we donвЂ™t like to sign up for long-term contracts, when we can avoid it, and free trials are even better.Note: With both the iOS and Android-specific subscriptions, you wonвЂ™t be able to select your favorite protocols, unlike with their standard plans in which you can choose from OpenWeb, OpenVPN, StealthVPN, LSTP, SSTP, and IPSec. That may put Astrill VPN up there with the best VPNs for Android!

The iOS plan wouldвЂ™ve connected one device to their VPN for either $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year, lower than their Standard plan subscriptions, while the Android app was completely free for one device, although servers were limited. Even better, both apps came with unique subscriptions.

Solid iOS and Android apps: The Astrill VPN app has a 4.2 on the Apple store and a 3.9 on the Google Play store.

Who knew that Canada had so much programming we didnвЂ™t know about? From the U.S to Canada and back, we enjoyed watching Netflix on other countriesвЂ™ servers, so long as our IP addresses werenвЂ™t blocked, that is.

Unlimited server switches: We canвЂ™t be bogged down with limits on how many servers we can go on, which is why we were glad to see that Astrill VPN let us switch to as many different servers as our little hearts desired.

Tip: Astrill VPN works with routers, so in order to get all of your web traffic hidden on all of your devices, itвЂ™s easier to just set up the VPN with the router that your devices are connected to.

Fast download and upload speeds: We didnвЂ™t see huge decreases in speed when we tested out Astrill VPN on our Windows Acer Aspire 5 or our 2011 Macbook Pro, although we did see some pretty large increases in latency, which weвЂ™ll go over below.

For more information, check out our page on Astrill VPNвЂ™s costs. Since they were shared with other Astrill VPN-users, we didnвЂ™t have to worry about being tracked online, but wait: some email providers, and other websites, donвЂ™t like these shared IP addresses, so we liked that Astrill VPN offered us a dedicated IP address if we pleased.

Dedicated IP address option: When we connected to Astrill VPN, we got a new IP address, replacing our devicesвЂ™ private IP addresses.

Multi-hop: On top of that, they encrypted all of our data multiple times through a number of servers, and when it comes to encryption, we say the more, the merrier.

Encryption standards: To encrypt our web traffic and IP addresses, Astrill VPN uses OpenWeb, StealthVPN and Wireguard, solid encryption methods indeed.

Some Netflix access: Netflix and VPNs are like oil and water, but some of Astrill VPNвЂ™s servers worked with Netflix youвЂ™ll have to try this out on a case-by-case basis, as Netflix tries to block as many VPN servers as it can.

Kill switch: Even if Astrill VPN got disconnected somehow, automatically, it would shut down all of our web activity, closing our browsers so that we stay private, a solid Plan B.

Five Eyes non-member: Since Astrill VPN is based in the Seychelles Islands, the company wonвЂ™t ever have to hand over our personal data to the government, as these islands arenвЂ™t part of the Five Eyes, Nine Eyes or 14 Eyes surveillance alliances.

Everything has its roses and thorns, including Astrill VPN.
