- Google VPN is here and I had a chance to try it and see how it works. I was surprised but in a bad way.
VPN by Google One is currently available to all Google One members who are subscribed to the Premium 2TB. Additionally, family members who are part of the subscriber’s family group can use the VPN on up to six devices.
Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 7/7 Pro users will have access to VPN by Google One at no extra cost. You can enable VPN by Google One through the Google One app even without a Google One membership.

You know that if Google just adds option to choose server/country it would kill the VPN market. As low as basic subscription gives you VPN option and also extra storage.
Ah yes a "review" of a product by the product's competitor. Sounds trustworthy.
Fair point, though I tried to remain as objective as possible in this video as a VPN user myself and pointed out good things about Google One too like the additional storage and its simplicity. But as I pointed out in the video - Google VPN is currently lacking the ability to choose your own VPN location which is a key aspect of getting a lot of VPN benefits
I mean he didn't tell a single lie and this is coming from someone who uses the Google vpn
I know! It seems weird. But I feel like if there is ANY problem with google VPN I can rely on a competitor to point it out.
I stopped watching after a minute when he compared Google One's highest price plan to SurfShark's lowest price plan, as if anyone buys Google One just for the VPN 🙄. Not to mention my Basic plan has the VPN.
Hes not wrong, its just that google vpn is limited and while it can be used mostly for public wifi and school wifi, theres more things to do with a vpn
It's available on the basic plan as well, which is what I've always had
It's great
Strange, I have a google one sub, the lowest one, and I got an invite email to google VPN, not that I would ever be naive enough to use it! :D
Same, I pay the lowest and have the VPN option
4:30 same goes for surfshark no? Google actually has an extensive whitepaper and independent audits that have good results. This video has more assumptions that are not necessarily based by facts
This is exactly what i was looking for! Thanks! The missing country selection is a must in VPNs (in my humble opinon)
It actually does connect you to another country just not of your choosing. I ran a speed test with google one enabled and disabled, when enabled my server was in brussels whereas it was london when disabled
Interesting! Thanks for letting me know!
Yup. I was in the caribbean and I was on a server in India at times. Its random based on location.
Not the best, but since it already comes with my Google one sub. I'm cool with it.
Anybody worried about their data on Google shouldn't use anything Google related say all.
Funny when people say they don't trust one particular Google service while fully involved in Maps, Gmail, Drive, Photos, UA-cam and using an Android phone with all their infos...🤷♂️
can you guys make a vedio on how virtual servers work , i live in nepal and when i try to connect surfshark to my country it shows me it has 400+ ping , is it because its a virtual server ?
its part of Google one, so I use it knowing it will not be like other companies own who are dedicated...plus even if ur using other VPN ur probably still using Chrome = yes to logs...
So this is like cloudflare warp but free only on pixel 7
it does what i want it to do...
I pay the lower 100GB tier and have google one now 😅
20 euro per year, 100G and I use Gmail, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Keeps and Google Drive.
Almost forgot, Google VPN too. Unbeatable prices.
Btw VPN, Virtual private network are used to make connections from a client (Google VPN server) different by the client itself (smartphone, pc, etc)and same when get responses.
About the log thing unless you use a non Android (Google) phone, without Google services and apps and going through Google Servers when browsing the internet on a website that doesn't use Google Analytics, UA-cam videos and related, plus coockies, it is impossible for them not to log.
Bye
Is there a way to log in to Google Vpn on your Amazon fire stick. I tried everything and could not even get a log in to Google at all. Even using an APK app for Google one the spinning icon comes up and just remains spinning
I don't think Google VPN is supported on Amazon's Fire TV Stick.
Randomly cuts off some applications.
Lol this is a joke of a very... Saying Google one is over priced but forgetting to mention the rest of the items you get with Google one
Ya I had Google. One for like a year now and just found out it had the VPN in it
Ty
so THIS IS NOT FOR USE NETFLIX...
I've found Google One VPN so limited that it's not even worth using. I'm not sure what advantages it provides over the average basic VPN providers other than the ease of setup.
edit: The best use case I've found was using it on open/public wifi connections. My problem is that despite being a Google Fi customer with multiple Google mobile devices associated with my account, I'm only able to use the VPN on my primary device. Moreover, the VPN does not work for any devices using my primary device as a wifi hotspot.
now we can switch country with google one?
To my knowledge - not possible.
@@SurfsharkAcademy Thanks a lot from italy,
I think google vpn is a good step forward , its a bit like windows own build in firewall, yes theres much better 3rd party solutions out there , but it offers users a base defence. Aka its better than nothing
Google vpn is using a server somewhere in Washington according to dns leak test I live in S.Texas ping is like 67 mili seconds I find quad 9 is much better lower ping of 30 and speed is not as good as quad 9.
They recently expanded it, and added an option to connect to a server closer to your area
3:00 why do some apps have issues?
Because some apps use ur location to run properly. So with your VPN being on its pinging ur location somewhere you're not at. Which will sometimes throw off the app
Surfshark wouldn't let me connect to the internet.
It suits my needs and I have all of my devices connected to Google One and its cheap and absolutely hassle free. I tried a couple of separate VPN's and I was having constant tech issues so, I binned them. Perhaps simple is the best way.....
VPN on Google? Yeah right. Nah thanks. Having own personal DPN is better. Not to mention, Google VPN is not available in Singapore 🇸🇬
Hey surfshark let’s collab!
Only exit is the Google HQ in mountain view...

Google et VPN c'est un non-sens
next time can you get to the point quicker
Timestamps
I wouldn't trust Google anyway. I've migrated away overall from Google products and services. I still use UA-cam but I could never use it again and be just fine. It's next, lol.
What wouldn't you trust them with ?
@@BackDawsfor some people just being a big corporation is enough to distrust them. They disregard any major service just because it’s a thing that everyone uses and stick to other minor service. And when that service becomes the next big thing, they move on once again.
ya thanks I'l use mullvad instead. I bet they respect your privacy unlike all of the corporations mentioned in this video
Lol
I'll use that vpn and hack google with it.
You guys are not available in Pakistan, a country of 220 million people and complaining about Google vpn's unavailability in certain regions. Sed
Hey Mujtaba - it's a fair point. Having VPN availability in countries like Pakistan is very difficult. We are constantly investigating this question and perhaps in the far future we will be available in Pakistan again!
@@SurfsharkAcademyThat makes sense too but I appreciate your reply and I hope you guys figure it out for good 👍🏼
Google stinks
@@SurfsharkAcademy I have Surfshark sometimes it gets a little annoying, but out of 10 stars, I would give it nine
Will it hide my porrn history from my parents 😂
Of course yes
Lol it might connect you to a server in a state (if you're American) that has restrictions on those sites. PH doesn't load if Google VPN picks a Virginia or Texas server lol
good ad
cant wait for my x mas Surfshark new Features updates
Don’t you guys collect info too lmao
Surfshark has a no-logs policy that has been verified by third-party, you can read more about it on the Surfshark website
