Hidden24 is different from the other VPN services reviewed. But it is important to note that Hidden24 is primarily designed to provide privacy. That’s why a completely different approach is used, using your device’s own VPN capabilities instead of an app. That means it will work on Android, Mac, iPhone or Linux as well as Windows, but you can’t change servers as easily as with the VPN app, and there’s no emergency switch.
Hidden24 VPN Features
There are currently seven locations to choose from, but while it’s a small number, Hidden24 owns and manages all of these servers, and they’re designed for maximum security. Even Hidden24 employees can’t access these servers, and they run their own code, not open-source software over Linux, as with most rented VPN servers in the cloud.
That’s why it’s a solid choice if security and privacy are your top priorities. It’s perfect for journalists who can use the service for free.
It also reliably unlocks Netflix, iPlayer and other streaming services, which is a bonus, but only in the seven countries available: the U.K., U.S., Germany, Italy, France, Spain and Sweden.
Because Hidden24 literally registers nothing, not even user sessions, you can only use one device at a time, and connecting on a second device will stop the connection on the first device.
You can get unlimited connections by setting up a compatible router to connect to the VPN instead.
This alternative approach to VPN is not for everyone. But it’s a great choice if you want maximum privacy, and we’ll gladly give up the convenience to get it. It’s also much cheaper than the competition if you sign up for just a month.If you prefer a longer subscription, you can get an exclusive offer on a year plan for £5.4 per month.

Hidden24 VPN review
Verdict
A good and most importantly private VPN service. Not the cheapest one, but pretty high speeds. Go for it, if you are looking for Europe located VPN.
