Cloudflare’s Mobile DNS Service Adds A Free VPN Feature
Last year Cloudflare launched a mobile DNS service that provided users with a free DNS alternative to Google’s. Now the company has announced that its DNS service will be getting updated with a new feature in the form of a free VPN. Dubbed “Warp”, this will provide users with a free VPN service that they can use.
According to Cloudflare, they wanted to build a VPN service for users who might not be familiar with what a VPN was. “We built Warp because we’ve had those conversations with our loved ones too and they’ve not gone well. So we knew that we had to start with turning the weaknesses of other VPN solutions into strengths. Under the covers, Warp acts as a VPN. But now in the 1.1.1.1 App, if users decide to enable Warp, instead of just DNS queries being secured and optimized, all Internet traffic is secured and optimized.”
Cloudflare boasts that its VPN service will be able to secure all traffic on your phone, which means that not only does it cover the websites you visit on your mobile browser, but also all apps that run on your phone. The company will be offering this service for free, but they do have plans to launch Warp+ which will be a paid-for service with some added features.
For those who are interested, all you’ll need to make sure is that you have the 1.1.1.1 DNS app installed on your mobile device and you should be good to go. The app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
