uVPN review
A browser-only VPN with WebRTC blocking, a free plan, and paid subscriptions.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
uVPN is a browser extension for Microsoft Edge that routes and encrypts browser traffic through VPN servers. It is aimed at people who want to mask their IP address, use location-restricted websites, and block WebRTC in the browser without routing all device traffic through the VPN. Traffic outside Edge continues over the device’s regular connection, so it is not a whole-device VPN experience. The product also lists apps and extensions for other platforms, including Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Chrome.
Its feature set is focused on browser privacy and location access: users can select VPN locations, and uVPN says it encrypts browser traffic, masks the apparent IP address, and blocks WebRTC. The listing specifies five server countries and two simultaneous devices. That makes it a compact fit for individual or small-scale use, but buyers needing broader location choice or protection for traffic from every app should compare it with a full-device VPN. The logging policy is unclear, which may also matter to privacy-conscious buyers weighing how much confidence to place in a VPN provider.
uVPN offers a free download alongside paid subscriptions. According to its listed plan details, the 1-month option costs $2.99 per month, the 6-month plan is shown at $3.33 per month, and the 1-year plan at $2.91 per month; billing totals for the latter two are not stated here. A 30-day refund period is listed, and support channels include email, chat, and tickets, with 24/7 support noted. Choose uVPN if Edge-level encryption and WebRTC blocking meet your needs; look elsewhere if you require a clearly stated logging policy or VPN coverage beyond browser traffic.
