Overview

ClearVPN is a powerful and intuitive VPN solution designed to protect users’ online privacy and security. Crafted by MacPaw, ClearVPN features a completely redesigned interface that puts simplicity and effortless user experience at the forefront.

At MacPaw, we believe that digital privacy should be a daily habit. And for habits to be sustainable, they have to come with minimum friction to begin with. That’s why we built ClearVPN, which in its latest redesigned version, features a single button for secure online journeys.

With just one tap, users can connect to ClearVPN’s global network of servers in 45+ countries, allowing them to browse the web securely, access global content libraries, and stay safe on public Wi-Fi networks. Under the hood, ClearVPN utilizes industry-leading encryption and advanced VPN protocols to ensure that users’ online activity remains private and anonymous.

Beyond the core VPN functionality, ClearVPN offers a suite of innovative features, including iOS widgets for instant VPN activation, Siri Shortcuts integration for automated usage scenarios, and a Chrome extension that blocks ads and online trackers. The app’s “Optimal Location” algorithm intelligently determines the best server for each user’s needs, taking into account factors like location, server load, and content availability.

Committed to user privacy, ClearVPN maintains a strict no-log policy, ensuring that users’ data remains confidential at all times. As a product of MacPaw’s expertise in developing secure and user-friendly software, ClearVPN stands out as a comprehensive cybersecurity solution designed to protect users in their digital journeys.

Since Russia’s invasion of MacPaw’s home country, Ukraine, in 2022, ClearVPN has provided a free premium version to all Ukrainians globally and on Russian-occupied territories, ensuring their secure access to trusted information sources. Over 110,000 Ukrainians have already benefited from this initiative, showcasing MacPaw’s commitment to safeguarding digital privacy amidst the ongoing war.
