Your living-room VPN just got faster: IPVanish rolls out WireGuard and OpenVPN on Apple TV
IPVanish has added WireGuard and OpenVPN (with Scramble) to its Apple TV app, making it the only VPN to offer all three major protocols on tvOS. Here's what's new and how to switch them on.
IPVanish has recently enhanced its Apple TV app, incorporating WireGuard and OpenVPN protocols alongside the existing IKEv2 option. This upgrade caters to users seeking improved speed, stability, and evasion capabilities when streaming content. For $2.19 per month, IPVanish provides a cost-effective solution, making it one of the most affordable VPNs currently available.
The update, rolled out in late July 2026, grants users the option to customize their connection based on their specific needs. WireGuard, known for its fast connections and low latency, is particularly suited for streaming and gaming. OpenVPN, an established and flexible protocol, is bolstered by IPVanish's Scramble feature, which helps conceal VPN traffic from detection.
Users can easily switch protocols within the app settings, without any complex setup required. This move by IPVanish positions the service as a more capable option for Apple TV users compared to competitors.
