VPN for streaming on iPhone — speed, servers, and honest limits
FollowNet helps keep iPhone streaming private on Wi‑Fi and cellular with WireGuard, Smart Connect, and an in-app Speed Test — without promising every catalog will unlock on every server.
What matters for streaming
Pick a nearby server, prefer WireGuard on calm networks, and measure with Speed Test before long sessions. Auto-connect on hotel Wi‑Fi keeps the tunnel up so you are not streaming in the clear on a shared hotspot.
What VPN cannot guarantee
Some streaming services block known VPN exits. That is the service’s policy, not a FollowNet outage. Premium unlocks more locations and removes the Free weekly cap; it does not force a platform to allow VPN traffic.
Key points
- WireGuard and Smart Connect for everyday streams
- Speed Test to compare servers on your network
- Auto-connect on public Wi‑Fi
- Free to evaluate — Premium for unlimited data
FAQ
Will FollowNet unlock every streaming library?
No. FollowNet encrypts your path and offers regional exits; catalogs may still restrict VPN users.
Which protocol should I use for video?
Start with WireGuard or Smart Connect. If the network fights VPN, try AmneziaWG or Hysteria2 and re-test speed.
Does Free work for streaming?
Yes within the weekly traffic cap. Long HD sessions usually need Premium.
