ClearVPN’s product range
VPN
ClearVPN Premium is a VPN app for Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Apple TV and Android TV. The service also documents use with compatible routers. Our comparison lists support for up to six simultaneous devices, OpenVPN and IKEv2/IPsec protocols, a kill switch, and a Chrome platform entry. It is intended for people who want a VPN connection across personal devices, rather than hosting a website or running a server.
The app offers an “Optimal location” option as well as country selection. Our comparison lists a three-day trial and a 30-day money-back period. The provider’s stated refund policy applies to purchases made through its website or MacPaw Store; app-store purchases follow the relevant marketplace’s refund process.
Locations and support
ClearVPN lists endpoints across a range of countries. Our comparison lists 45 countries and servers in the Netherlands, but the complete current location list and physical data-centre operators could not be independently confirmed. ClearVPN says its India endpoint is virtual and physically located in Singapore.
Support options listed by ClearVPN include a help centre, live chat, email and a feature-request form. The apps let users connect to an optimal location or choose a country. Subscription settings are managed in the ClearVPN account portal or, for marketplace purchases, through the relevant app store.
Who ClearVPN may suit
ClearVPN may suit people looking for a VPN app with country selection and a simplified connection option across several device types. It is not the right category of service for someone seeking web hosting, a website builder or a dedicated server. If you need verified details about particular endpoint locations or support availability, check those points before subscribing.
