Each browser running an active VPN connection does count towards the limit of ten simultaneous VPN connections.įor example, if traveling away from home, you could run Brave with the Proton VPN browser extension connected to a nearby VPN server to secure your browsing session using the fastest available server. You can run the extension in as many different browsers as you like, and you can connect each browser to a different VPN server. If you want to encrypt all the connections made by your device, you still need to download our app. Our browser extension provides similar protection to our full VPN app, but it only encrypts your browser’s internet connection (using HTTPS). What is the Proton VPN browser extension? It is a premium feature available to everyone with a paid Proton VPN plan (Proton VPN Plus, Proton Unlimited, Proton Visionary, or Proton for Business). The Proton VPN browser extension is available for Chromium-based browsers (such as Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Chromium, Opera, and Vivaldi) and Firefox-based browsers (including Firefox itself, LibreWolf, and Waterfox).
We are excited to announce the Proton VPN browser extension, one of our most requested features. The Proton VPN browser extension provides a convenient and secure way to protect your privacy online. This article has also been updated to mention the addition of support for additional advanced features such as Secure Core, auto connect, and split tunneling.
Update April 2023: The Proton VPN browser extension is no longer in beta.
