Virtual private networks (VPNs) are now an essential tool to protect your data and privacy online. As more of our lives move online, privacy and security concerns are growing daily. VPNs can protect your internet traffic by encrypting your data and hiding your location. When configured properly, they prevent internet service providers, hackers, and even governments from tracking your online activities.
LetsVPN is a popular VPN service offering robust protection without sacrificing performance. It promises to keep no usage logs, adheres to strict privacy policies, and enables encryption of all traffic through its network.
Our tests confirm that it supports the world's most popular devices and operating systems and is easy to download and configure on your device. I also like that it has servers in 75+ countries, so you can always find a nearby server for faster speeds. It offers a limited trial period, but you can get a premium license for as little as $2.99/month.
This guide will walk you through downloading, installing, and setting up LetsVPN on your favorite device in just a few quick steps.

Logging In and Activating LetsVPN
LetsVPN allows you to try out the service for one hour before you commit. However, this privilege is no longer available for Windows users.
LetsVPN states on the website that it found several cases of Windows users using illegal means to get unlimited free trial days, forcing it to discontinue this offer.
After the hour-free trial, you must buy a subscription to continue using the service. I like that you can use one premium account on multiple devices too (up to 2 device connections.)
To create an account, you simply need to:
- Click “Create Account” on the top left side of your app.
- Enter a username and a password.
To connect another device under your subscription, you just need to use the username and password you created to log into the new device.
If you want to log out of a device (maybe you might want to connect a different device), log into your account on LetsVPN’s website, click “My Devices,” and then delete the devices from the list.
