How much should you care about security on your iPhone or iPad?

Do you wonder how to keep yourself safe online when using your iPad or iPhone? There are several good ways and some are easier than others to set up.  

First, never connect your iPhone or iPad to someone’s computer who you don’t trust. That’s the easiest way for someone to mess with your iPhone or iPad.  

Second, be very cautious when connecting to public wifi like you’d find in Starbucks. Yes, they are convenient but not secure.  

The best way to protect yourself is to invest in a VPN, which encrypts your data when it leaves your iPhone so that someone cannot easily access your information, such as passwords and credit cards. There are many different options for VPNs. When selecting which one is right for you, make sure you weight the security options and cost. In general, free VPNs are not worth using. The best services encrypt your data, do not log information that goes through their service and offer speeds similar to what you’d have without them. The best 3 services to check out are: NordVPN, ExpressVPN and PureVPN.
