NEW YORK: As the privacy and personal security of users are gaining more popularity on the technological arena nowadays, it’s quite evident that Google VPN engaged with Android 5.1 at the right time. The most important feature of VPN is the security it has been providing for the users even if they’re connected online via Wi-Fi.
Hence it’s certainly sure that Google will expand this feature for the Smartphone users in the upcoming days, although they’re still working on its proper creation.
The latest feature has been successfully experimented on Nexus 6 through its “Google Connectivity Services” via Android 5.1 Lollipop version.
For enabling this feature, users can go directly to Settings > Applications. The memory allotted for this specific application is 4.94MB. Presently, Google Connectivity Services is merely showcased on the application list, however it can’t be installed. There are a few tricks available to enable this feature as a solution though. Once it’s been launched, a user can view Google VPN pop-up which explains: “To help protect you on open Wi-Fi networks, your data will be transmitted securely through a Google VPN.”
There is “got it” option available over there. You’ll be directed to support page of Google if you’ve tried to access/ install this feature on your device.
If you’ve selected “got it”, then you will be directed to a request screen showing regular VPN connection. You’ll be guided to switch on Wi-Fi to set up VPN connection then.
However, even after the activation of Wi-Fi, the Google VPN wasn’t accessible for the users which clearly indicate that Google has been setting plans to include this feature for the Smartphone users in the near future.
