Apple prides itself on keeping iPads safe and secure - and sure, you're generally much less vulnerable to online threats than you would be if you were using an Android tablet. However, iPads aren't totally invulnerable to cyberattacks, hackers, and malware.

1. ExpressVPN: the best iPad VPN in 2024

ExpressVPN's apps are a joy to use—especially on iPad. The fresh design is easy to navigate and all of the VPN's security tools are exactly where you'd expect them to be. Plus, ExpressVPN excels when it comes to unblocking content from around the world.

ExpressVPN is undeniably expensive, but it sweetens the deal with 3 free months of coverage and 1-year of cloud storage when you grab a 12-month plan. See for yourself with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

2. NordVPN: the best balance of speed, security, and style

NordVPN is a titan of the VPN industry—and it's not hard to see why. Its iOS apps are well-designed and stacked with features that'll keep nosy third parties at bay. It's also the quickest VPN I've tested in a long time, which is great news if you're looking for a streaming companion.

Check out NordVPN's all-in-one security suite without risking a penny thanks to its 30-day money-back guarantee.

3. Surfshark: the best budget-friendly VPN

Surfshark combines reliable tools, impressive speeds, and awesome unblocking power into prices that won't break the bank. I like how user-friendly the Surfshark apps are, too, even if you're totally new to VPNs, and the clutter-free design.

One Surfshark subscription will bag you unlimited simultaneous connections to share amongst family and friends—so, try it for yourself with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
