With the number of services, platforms and applications that track our activity on the Internet, more and more people are considering using a VPN. Thanks to these types of tools we can mask our IP, increase our privacy on the network and bypass the restrictions due to regional blocking of certain content and web pages.
Best VPN Apps for Android Devices in 2020
Now, what are the best VPN apps available on Android? The first thing we must bear in mind is that if we want a complete and quality service, we must opt for paid subscription solutions, although there are some semi-free offers that are not too bad either.
ExpressVPN
ExpressVPN is the premium VPN service with the largest number of countries available (94). It is a platform that has been recognized for its great customer service and has everything we could expect from a quality VPN: unlimited bandwidth, fast connections, more than 3,000 servers spread around the world and a powerful encryption.
As an interesting fact, it is worth mentioning that ExpressVPN also offers the possibility of installing it on the router and thus protect "in one go" all the devices connected to it. It allows up to 10 simultaneous connections, and its app for Android, although easy to use, has a large number of settings. Of course, quality is paid, and in this case we are facing the most expensive service on the list. | Price: $ 6.67 / month

IPVanish is currently the most complete VPN service that we can find for Android devices. It offers powerful encryption (AES 256 bit), unlimited bandwidth and more than 40,000 IPs distributed among more than 1,300 servers in more than 75 different locations.
If we are thinking of using more than one device, we are facing the perfect alternative, since it also allows up to 10 simultaneous connections. On the negative side, it should be mentioned that they are very strict with the rules of use, so if we try to connect with more than 10 devices at the same time without updating our subscription to a higher plan, they can cancel our account without prior notice. | Price: $ 6.49 / month (one-year plan)

If this is the first time that we are going to use a VPN and we have doubts, TunnelBear may be a good option before you start spending money on a paid subscription. The application allows us to register with a free account With which we can browse and download a maximum of 500MB, although we can get an extra 1GB if we recommend the application on our social networks.
TunnelBear's design is very pleasant and easy to use, as well as complete. It has servers in 23 countries, with AES 256-bit encryption and the possibility of connecting up to 5 devices simultaneously. Its big drawback is that it does not support torrenting. | Price: Free (500MB) or $ 4.99 / month (Unlimited)

The great feature of Hotspot Shield is that it has a freemium version with a connection to the United States, which can come in handy if we want to see US content without geographic restrictions. A free version that is maintained by including ads.
On the other hand, the app offers a good plethora of services, such as military-grade encryption and the ability to configure the VPN to activate automatically when we open the browser or connect to the Internet. The pro version removes the ads and adds 20 virtual locations. | Price: Free with advertising or € 7.99 / month

NordVPN is the right solution for those looking for the highest level of encryption. The company operates from Panama, which means that it has no legal obligation to record the activity of its users. In addition, it has double encryption: before sending the data to the Internet, it is encrypted on one server, and later, it is encrypted again on a second server, making it practically indecipherable.
This great virtue is also its defect, and that is that this double encryption means that the connection is not as fast as in other similar services. It is the price to pay for protection well above the average. NordVPN offers more than 1,000 servers spread across 57 countries. | Price: € 6.22 / month (annual plan)

Private Internet Access VPN offers one of the cheapest premium VPN services from the market, about 30 euros a year. For this price we have a really easy to use app and more than 3,000 servers at our disposal spread over 30 different countries.
There are undoubtedly more complete VPNs with more functionalities, but the fact is that it does not record logs of our online activity (which is not bad), it offers unlimited bandwidth, it is compatible with both Android, such as Windows, MacOS and Linux, And for the cost we cannot say that the value for money is mediocre, far from it. A good VPN: simple but inexpensive. | Price: $ 3.33 / month (annual plan)

Windscribe has a network of about 534 servers in 110 cities in 60 countries. Something that the company is proud of, as some VPNs often spoof their servers with fake IP and WHOIS addresses. In that sense, Windscribe is quite proud to have physical servers.
This is a fairly versatile VPN service. Features AES 256-bit encryption and a 4,096-bit RSA key and a free plan that gives us access to 10 different locations: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, France, Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Norway and Romania. | Price: Starting at $ 4.08 / month

Cloudflare WARP
The first thing to clarify regarding WARP is that it is not designed to hide our IP. Rather than a tool to facilitate access to content with regional blocking, WARP presents itself as "a VPN for people who do not know what a VPN means" (this is literally its slogan) and its objective is to shield our privacy and security from the time to connect to the Internet.
WARP encrypts both the data and the DNS requests that we make, in such a way that our operator cannot know what we are doing. The application is 100% free and unlimited, but there is also a payment service called WARP + that offers more speed and higher data encryption for 3.99 euros per month.

Opera's built-in VPN
If the only thing that interests us is to protect our privacy when browsing but we don't want to install additional apps As would be the case with WARP, we must know that the Opera browser for Android itself has an integrated VPN service.
We will not be able to choose which country we connect to (we can only choose between Europe, Asia or America) nor will we be able to configure the typical characteristics of any VPN app, but in its favor it must be said that it does not slow down navigation at all and which is very easy to use. | Price: Free

This navigation mode does not allow taking screenshots, so I had to take some photos ...Speedify
As the name suggests, Speedify is a VPN that focuses on delivering fast connections while maintaining a high degree of data encryption. It has a free plan and a paid one: in both we have access to the same number of servers, but in the freemium plan we will have a limited bandwidth of 5GB the first month (1GB free the rest of the months).
It certainly does not offer as much bandwidth as other semi-free services, but it is complemented by the excellent bulletproof speed it offers when it comes to browsing. | Price: Free (5GB) or $ 5.99 / month (annual subscription)
