The Best VPNs for Apple TV: What Works and What Doesn't

Trying to find the perfect VPN for your Apple TV can be a bit of a journey. Let's start with NordVPN. While it's great for many things, using it on your Apple TV might not be the best idea. The app is tricky to navigate, with servers listed in a weird order that makes finding the right one a chore. Plus, streaming can be a pain. During testing, Netflix and Hulu wouldn't work, even though other services like Disney Plus and Amazon Prime were fine. If streaming is your main goal, you might want to look elsewhere.

Now, let's talk about PrivadoVPN. It's a newer VPN that's doing pretty well. The Apple TV app makes it easy to find servers based on how fast they are, which is a plus. It also lets you save your favorite servers and browse by country. The downside? No search option for server locations. The free plan has a data limit, so it's not ideal for streaming. But if you go for the paid plan, you get access to more servers and can stream from most services. Proton VPN is another strong contender. Its Apple TV app is simple and easy to use, with countries listed in alphabetical order. It worked well with all the major streaming services. The catch? The app is very basic and lacks features like search or favorite server options. It's still a good choice if you don't mind the simplicity.
