Apple TVs are very interesting devices, aimed at using streaming services such as Netflix, HBO, Prime Videoetc., although we can also use them to play games, play our iPhone on it, view photos, and a thousand other things that are very good.
However, it is a very limited ecosystem, and unlike Android TV Boxes, there are many things that could not be done, especially for those who like to experiment and perform tricks and cheats with them. Until today, since they have added an app that will allow us to do something very interesting.
Proton VPN for Apple TV
After the release of tvOS 17 last year, Apple natively allows you to use and implement this type of apps, so Proton VPN has not wasted time and has developed its application for this device, being already listed among those that we can download legally and use natively, without tricks or traps.
What does the use of a VPN allow us? Well, many of you can already imagine it, and using a VPN on any device (including Apple TV) gives us the option of simulating a location other than the real one, being able to make Netflix believe, for example, that we are in the United States, getting like this unlock series and movies that are not available in Spain.
This would also have other uses, such as network anonymity, or being able to simulate the location in games and other apps that interest us, although the main one will be the one mentioned, and that is that most streaming apps limit the catalogs by country, and we will not have the same thing in one place as in another, however, they will be translated , so we can pretend to be in Germany, for example, and watch a series that only exists there but with the Spanish language, thus creating a “legal” trap to see more content.
The same happens with premieres, which are common in some countries in advance. So now we can be in that place, but without leaving our sofa, thanks to Proton’s integrated VPN.
The new tvOS app allows users to connect to ProtonVPN’s network of more than 8,500 servers in 112 countries, providing access to geo-restricted content while maintaining the privacy of Internet service providers.
This was one of the most anticipated apps by the community, since there was no quick and easy way to have a VPN on an Apple TV, unlike other systems like Android, which we already mentioned, so from now on , you will have no excuse not to use your device, because it was the only thing we missed, and we now have it.
And you, are you one of those who prefers to use the apps as they are offered to us, or do you like the idea of being able to use a VPN on Apple TV as well? The truth is that it has many more uses than we have talked about today, so there will be many people who were waiting for this.
