How To Set Up A VPN On iPhone SE

If you want to know how to set up a VPN for your iPhone SE, below we’ll explain how you can do this very easily. The main reason you would want to set up a VPN or Virtual Private Network on your iPhone SE is to allow for a secure and private connection when you communicate instead of using a public network that puts data and information at risk when using the public network.

Another reason you may want to set up a VPN on the iPhone SE is because you might need to configure VPN to access or send out work emails on your iPhone for security reasons. You would need to set up a Virtual Private Network on iOS 9 so you can all content and data going in and out of your iOS device is secure. VPN works over Wi-Fi and cellular data network connections.
