Google is finally bringing a promised feature to its Pixel 7 series of smartphones. The company had announced that the flagship phones will receive a free VPN feature, which is finally rolling out to the devices.

For those unaware, the Search Engine tech giant had first announced this feature for its Pixel 7 series during its “Made by Google” event in which it also launched the Pixel Watch and phones. Now, the company is finally bringing this free VPN feature through the Google One application. To put things simply, VPN stands for Virtual Private Network and it helps change one’s identity when one is online and it even helps encrypt your internet data as well. In other words, it basically makes it harder for others to get unwanted access to your private data or track your location online.

This even helps in protection when using public WiFi networks. So now, users of the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro can expect to receive this feature, with the company also putting up a support page that lists the countries where the feature is currently available. This includes nations like Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, South Korea, Spain Sweden Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and United States.

Notably, Google has also claimed that if you are from any one of these regions, the VPN by Google One will still be functional even if you travel to any other country or region. Furthermore, the free VPN services will also be offered to Google One subscribers with 2TB of online storage, which costs around 9.99 US Dollars per month.
