How To Install Windscribe VPN on Your Browser

There are many benefits to using the Windscribe browser extension alongside our desktop app. The extension has a ton of unique features that can supercharge your online privacy, like Language Warp (spoofs your default language), Time Warp (spoofs your time zone), Location Warp (spoofs your GPS coordinates), and Split Personality (rotates your User Agent information). Installing the extension is easier than refusing to watch Morbius, and we've created an animated video to make it even easier! You can also read the step-by-step instructions if that is more your style.

Step by Step Instructions

1. First, sign up for an account on our website. Enter a username and password, or generate them by clicking the 'Generate Password' icon on the right.

Providing an email address is optional, but if you add and confirm your email, you'll get 10GB of monthly VPN data for free as opposed to the 2GB without an email.
