About Surfshark
Surfshark is a VPN service that encrypts your connection and hides your IP address. It has apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS, and it is known for allowing an unlimited number of devices on one subscription.
Features include a kill switch, an ad and malware blocker, a multi-hop option, a dedicated IP add-on and bypass options for apps that should skip the VPN. Higher tiers add an antivirus, data breach alerts and an Alternative ID tool that creates a separate identity for sign-ups. Recent releases let you set up Alternative ID directly in the app and refresh the dedicated IP screen.
Surfshark suits households with many devices and people who want a feature-rich VPN at a moderate price. A paid subscription is required, and the store listings show a free download with in-app purchases. Prices depend on plan length and promotions, so check the official site. As with any VPN, speeds vary by server and location, and it is worth testing during the refund period.
Look at the extras on higher tiers before choosing a plan. Use the refund period to test speeds on the servers you need.
