ExpressVPN’s latest Apple push brings a tablet-first design and one-click installs on Mac
- After adding more controls on iPhone, ExpressVPN just rolled out more changes for users in the Apple ecosystem
- The ExpressVPN iPad app got a design overhaul
- Meanwhile, Mac users can now download ExpressVPN without any extra steps
ExpressVPN continues its push toward making the app more accessible to users with Apple devices. This time, iPad and Mac owners have something to be happy about.
The iPad app now has a new design made specifically for the tablet, with a smoother, quicker user experience.
Macs also got a subtle, but important change. ExpressVPN can now be found and downloaded in the App Store, which is where many of us go when searching for one of the best VPNs.
ExpressVPN gives iPad users something to be happy about
If you want to stay safe while using an iPad, using a virtual private network (VPN) goes a long way toward protecting your privacy and avoiding various risks.
Up until now, iPad users could use the ExpressVPN app just fine, but the company gave the whole experience a major overhaul in this latest update.
The redesigned ExpressVPN iPad app was made with tablets in mind. The new design choices make the most of the huge screen. These changes might help ExpressVPN rank on our list of the best VPNs for iPads.
ExpressVPN notes that connecting on an iPad should now take fewer steps, and the same can be said about switching locations. You can also easily check your connection speed and fiddle with the settings. This is true both in landscape and in horizontal mode.
Downloading ExpressVPN on a Mac just got easier
Mac users, hold your horses – there are no big user interface changes for you today. However, the one change that ExpressVPN introduced is small, but impactful.
Instead of having to download ExpressVPN for the Mac directly from the company’s website, you can now find it in the Mac App Store. This should make it quicker to find, easier to install, and simpler to update.
This kind of move is something we’d expect from the best Mac VPNs, so it’s nice to see the app finally listed in the App Store.
ExpressVPN continues to fight for Apple dominance
ExpressVPN has recently introduced a bunch of different updates for users in the Apple ecosystem. Today’s changes mark yet another push in that direction.
Just a few days prior, ExpressVPN added more Siri controls, shortcuts, and widgets for the iPhone. These changes apply to both the new iOS 26 and older versions.
More recently, the company launched EventVPN, which is a free VPN service available on the Apple App Store. The goal is to deliver privacy and safety for free, with built-in ads to support the model.
Overall, it’s been a busy period for ExpressVPN. With the addition of three new subscription plans: Basic, Advanced, and Pro, the service offers more flexibility than before, both for users in the Apple ecosystem and outside of it.
