Secure Wireless 1.1.2
Secure Wireless is a nifty app that allows you to create a VPN connection to secure your device on any network. It comes with many useful features and tools that you can use for connecting to networks anywhere in the world.
Sleek interface with plenty of features
The first thing you'll notice about this app after you launch it is that it comes with plenty of instructions and a tutorial to get you going. It shows new users how to navigate inside the app and how to turn the connection on and off.
The app posts notifications in the status bar at all times, so you can access the app fast and adjust its settings. You can turn off the connection from the toolbar at all times. You'll find sections of the app under the 'hamburger' icon on the top right corner of the screen, including the help section and access to the tutorial.
Establish secure internet connections
Simply tap on the icon in the center of the screen to establish a secure internet connection. The app shows you the network you're connected to, together with the status and mode. You can choose from three different modes, have the app maintain a connection at all times, set it up manually or have it find an automatic connection.
You can also enable private browsing so that your personal data would be protected on internet networks at all times. Private Browsing helps decrease the ability of tracking companies to store cookies on your device, fingerprint you, or collect data about your browsing habits.
Upgrade for more data
It also lets you choose from three different locations, North America, Europe and Asia. Users can also whitelist networks they trust, so the app would automatically connect to them when the device is in their range. The app provides users with a limited plan of just 256 MB of transferred data.
If you wish to get more you'll need to upgrade to an unlimited secure Wi-Fi, unlimited streaming video and a secure 3G/4G connection. An upgrade costs 2.56$ for a monthly unlimited bandwidth upgrade or 25.57$ for a yearly subscription.
