MacPaw Launches Redesigned ClearVPN: Effortless Privacy with Just One Tap

MacPaw's hassle-free VPN solution offers an intuitive one-tap experience across devices, as well as iOS widgets, a Siri Shortcuts integration, and a new Chrome ad-blocking extension

KYIV, Ukraine, March 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MacPaw, a leading software company specializing in solutions for macOS and iOS, today released a redesigned version of ClearVPN that delivers an intuitive, one-tap experience for secure online journeys.

The updated ClearVPN allows users across iOS, macOS, Android, and Windows devices to easily connect to servers in nearly 50 countries, enabling private browsing, seamless streaming of global content libraries, and safe usage of public Wi-Fi hotspots.

"At MacPaw, our mission is to help machines better serve humans through powerful yet user-friendly software," said Oleksandr Kosovan, CEO and founder of MacPaw. "With this redesign, ClearVPN exemplifies that vision by offering a private, secure online experience through a beautifully crafted app that works seamlessly across devices."

ClearVPN's updated interface maintains the one-button simplicity that users have enjoyed in MacPaw's other products like CleanMyMac and CleanMy®Phone. With a single tap, users can power up their online presence and access the best available server for their needs. The new iOS widgets provide instant VPN connection, while Siri Shortcuts integration allows automating ClearVPN for scenarios like enabling it when joining public Wi-Fi networks. The release also introduces ClearWeb, a new ad-blocking extension for Chrome that enhances secure web browsing.

"ClearVPN is crafted to be a modern VPN solution that expands and protects each user's online experience through elegant, effortless design," said Ivan Ablamsky, Lead Product Manager of ClearVPN at MacPaw. "Our goal is to unify MacPaw's product suite under a cohesive, user-friendly aesthetic that puts privacy and access at your fingertips."

A recipient of the prestigious Cyber Defense Magazine's Global InfoSec Award in 2022 and 2023, and a nominee for "Best Security Product of the Year" in Cyber Security Awards 2023, ClearVPN provides industry-leading encryption, a strict no-log policy, and access to lightning-fast servers for seamless connectivity.

Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, ClearVPN has provided a free premium version to all Ukrainians globally and on Russian-occupied territories, ensuring their secure access to trusted information sources. Founded in Kyiv, MacPaw understands the importance of digital privacy amidst the ongoing war. The company's expertise in safeguarding online privacy proved vital during this time.
