Expert's Review

TunnelBear stands out as a VPN solution that combines ease of use with an engaging, fun interface, making it particularly appealing to beginners. Many users have praised its intuitive setup, adorable bear-themed design, and reliable connections for accessing geo-restricted content, such as Netflix and gaming servers. The inclusion of a free plan with 500 MB of ...Read more

Not recommended.

Support is practically useless. Very slow wait times, and do not even hear back at all sometimes. Small server location selection, not allowed to P2P. This VPN is not recommended. There are many other better options like Airvpn or VPNArea.

TunnelBear

What do you like best? TunnelBear is an excellent solution. It puts privacy first, uses a UI that makes it very easy even the most beginner User to learn how Virtual Private Network works, a variety of meaningful extensions that make it easy to integrate the software into your daily use of the internet. A good VPN lives and dies about how you handle your private data, but you may be subject to the specifics you can expect from a given VPN. The approach of TunnelBear is refreshingly ...

Good performance

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Latency is average, upload/download is above average and streaming is quite good. For the average user this VPN gets the job down, streaming movies, sending huge files and downloading them. There’ll be minor glitches since it has only 20 servers spread across the world, but the lag time is barely noticeable What aspects are problematic or could work better? I did have a few instances of streaming gaps while watching YouTube HD. ...

It is a very efficient and fast VPN.

What do you like best? It has a very nice interface and very easy to use. It connects very fast and you can change countries without complications. It is ideal for people who live in countries with internet restrictions. The browsing speed is very fast, in fact I have tried other VPNs and TunnelBear seems the fastest of all. What do you dislike? In the free version they only give you 500 MB free, after that you must pay for an additional MB. Although it is a small limitation, it is ...

Reliable, safe and secure

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? It’s based in Canada so that gives me a bit of security knowing I can go after it should something sinister happens. Overall, TunnelBear is one of the more serious providers where they keep their promises. They say it’s easy to use and true, I got it up and running in seconds. I needed to contact them for my free 1GB and I got a reply on the same day. The terms are clear, too, no hidden fees or ads. A pretty reliable VPN for me. ...

Navega en paginas bloqueadas en tu pais en modo incognito.

What do you like best? TunnelBear te permite navegar en sitios web que estan bloqueados en tu pais, con este gran VPN no sera un problema hacerlo, ademas que te brinda seguridad ya que no revela tu identidad ni tu ubicacion, ya que navegaras de modo incognito. Podras probar aplicaciones de otros paises y hablar con otras personas facilmente sin ser descubierto. What do you dislike? TunnelBear cuenta con una version gratuita que es para que pruebes la aplicacion a ver que te parece, ...

Tunnelling my way to privacy

What do you like best? Adorably animated, with a great vibe. Makes it really fun to use the interface. There is a great free version that is accessible and relatively-affordable options in their paid plans. I love the ease of connecting to the different VPNs/tunnels, the interface and UI don't include things like the protocol and encryption, making it easy for users of all levels to use a VPN for an extra layer of security. I also learned that TunnelBear abides by a logging ...

Clear terms

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? No hidden fees, the terms are transparent. They even outright declare you can’t use it for pirated streaming (now that’s honest) and they don’t hide the fact they only have 900 server locations (they’re putting up more). And the guys are in Canada not in some Caribbean town out of reach of legal regulations. Overall, I trust this VPN service with my money. What aspects are problematic or could work better? Nothing much to say ...

Using the free version

Using the free version. It's slow but gets the job done.
