What it does
NordVPN offers VPN clients with app-specific routing, a kill switch, Double VPN and a Meshnet feature for connecting private devices.
NordVPN's feature set contains two different networking jobs. Split tunneling and Double VPN adjust the route to the internet, while Meshnet links your own devices for file sharing, remote access or LAN-style use. Choose the job first rather than treating every feature as another server location. The official feature page also distinguishes lightweight browser proxy extensions from device clients.
The service's wider security bundles add other tools. Compare the required VPN functions and platform support before choosing those extras.
