expressvpn and how to just use it i'll explain a little bit about the uh features that expressvpn
has and of course it's going to be a pretty short video because express vpn makes it as simple as
possible to use and there really isn't much to be talking about besides a couple of features and
i'll get to those in just a second before we guys are interested in expressvpn you'll find a link in
the description down below i'll give you a little bit of an extra discount also a full review if
you'd like to learn more about the privacy policy speed streaming taunting capabilities as well as
security and features of expressvpn now all you need to do first of all to download expressvpn
is go to the website itself now obviously if you're on desktop go to the website download
it you're good to go but if you're on android or ios again go to either the apple store
or play store google play store and just look up expressvpn and just download it from there
now when it comes to downloading it from the desktop uh you simply want to go to expressvpn.com
uh first of all you want to get started and get yourself the subscription and from there once
you subscribe to it you'll get an email and you can get the download link from there or
before you even uh get your subscription or pay for it you can simply go to products right here
and let's say you're downloading it on windows or mac or whatever device you're using it on let's
just say windows for the sake of the example click and there you go you have your download
uh application right here the download link and once you download it you'll get a little
folder that shows up here and it downloads and as you uh once it's downloaded once you're done uh
you can just click it and download the application it'll ask you for your credentials or your code
uh it'll send you a code if you already got a subscription and you can just put in that code
and you're good to go so it's as simple as it gets with regards to downloading expressvpn
now how to use expressvpn it's very simple it's as simple as just turning on the button right here
just click the button and that's it that's how you use expressvpn now but just give you a little bit
of an explanation of how expressvpn works and what it's about well it's very simple first of all you
have over 3 000 servers in 94 countries and that is a lot that's way over the average 94 countries
is a lot and 3 000 servers is just a little over the industry standard so yeah plenty of
servers and countries okay you have a speed test feature which will save you a little bit of time
you can pick which continents to test or just test the recommended locations you can figure
out which is the best for you so this is a little time saver and in the options here you have
well very simple features the only thing that you want to look out for is just the general
and protocols tab it's as simple as that so you have some startup options here which you can just
turn uh toggle on and off depending on your uh preference and you have the network lock
and split tunneling the network lock which is also known as the kill switch will cut your internet
access if the vpn disconnects unexpectedly in the unlikely event rather that the vpn
disconnects unexpectedly but if it does this will prevent any leaks from getting out of your device
especially if you're in a censorship-heavy country and speaking of censorship-heavy countries
the proprietary obfuscation of expressvpn is always on by default so it's a plug-and-play
vpn no matter where you are very easy to use no configuration needed split tunneling
will allow to choose which applications are routed through the vpn and which are not so
let's say you want a specific application to use the vpn leaving the rest of your connection
outside the vpn tunnel you can definitely do that so for example google chrome and my torrenting
client or any other application you can add here so you can do that or vice versa where you can
have specific applications bypass the vpn tunnel while the rest of your connection goes through
the vpn tunnel so this is a very useful feature especially for you guys that you know want to pick
which applications use the vpn and which don't especially if you have a banking application and
you don't want it to be affected by the vpn this can be very useful now protocol is here handful of
protocols you can set it on automatic and this will work 100 of the time i choose lightweight
udp because it is usually the fastest protocol so i just like to stick to that shortcuts right here
you can add shortcuts so once you turn on the vpn these shortcuts will show up right here so let's
say i want a shortcut it could be an application or website shortcut so let's just say netflix
and netflix.com will show up right here once i connect my vpn you can use this tab right
here to download the browser extensions and in advance you have nothing to worry about keep
these on at all times and unless you want to not share your crash reports which will help
express vpn better their service you can opt out of it if you'd like though so i'd rather just
keep it on in case they needed to help me out with something so that they can have some diagnostics
here and there so that's pretty much it once you have all that kind of picked and understood go
to locations and pick one of these let's just go to recommend i'm gonna go to recommend it
connect to let's say the pair server because i'm near the european region i'm definitely gonna get
faster speeds than uh connecting to any further servers so that's pretty much it it really is
as simple as that and if you want to double check that you are connected to that server notice the
netflix showed up right here so you can assign all these shortcuts right here as you would like and
i can go to what is my ip address finder oh what is my p address there we go and this is how i can
double check that uh i'm indeed connected to the french server and it should show up
as if i am in france and that's pretty much it so this is how you can use expressvpn if you're
