Mozilla Adds Two New Features to Its VPN Service

If you are a Mozilla VPN customer, you're going to get two new features in your VPN app. These features are aimed at helping you keep your data secure and allowing you to connect to local devices without much hassle.

Mozilla's VPN Service

In case you don't already know, Mozilla offers a VPN service under the name Mozilla VPN. This was introduced about a year or so ago, and many platforms including Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS could use this service.

It's a subscription-based VPN where you pay a fixed monthly fee to avail the VPN features.

Currently, you can use Mozilla VPN in the US, the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia.

New Features in Mozilla's VPN Service

Mozilla recently announced on its blog that it's adding two new features to its VPN service..

Today, we’re launching two new features to give you an added layer of protection with our trusted Mozilla VPN service. Mozilla has a reputation for building products that help you keep your information safe.

These features are actually something you can use as an end-user; these aren't some backend stuff that you never get to see.

Turn VPN On on Weak Networks

One of the new features in Mozilla VPN is that you can now quickly enable the VPN when you're on a weak network.

When Mozilla VPN is running on your device, and your device connects to a network that has no password protection or has weak encryption, the VPN will ask you to enable the service.

You can click the notification for that message and it'll quickly enable the VPN service. Your data will then be encrypted making it more secure.

Connect to Other Devices on the Local Network

Earlier, you had to disconnect from the VPN if you wanted to connect to a device on the local network. Mozilla VPN changes this with its new feature.

This new feature now adds a checkbox to Mozilla VPN. When you enable this box, you can connect to the devices on your local network without having to switch off the VPN service. This ensures uninterrupted VPN usage regardless of what device you want to connect to.

Better Security Options in Mozilla VPN

If you use this VPN service from Mozilla, you now have two more features to keep your private data safe and secure. It's really great to see security features like this roll out as they help protect your data, even when you forget to do so.
