Google One is shutting down its VPN feature later this year

If you’re — apparently, one of the few people — using the VPN service that comes with Google One, we’ve got bad news for you. In an email you’re going to receive from Google if you haven’t gotten it yet, it revealed that it’s phasing out the perk sometime later this year. The company rolled out Google One’s VPN feature back in 2020, but you could only access it then if you’re paying for a plan with at least 2TB of storage, which costs at least $10 a month. Last year, the company expanded its availability across all One plans, including the basic $2-per-month option, making it more affordable than before.

At the moment, you can access One’s VPN service if you’re in one of the 22 countries where it’s active, whether you’re on iOS or Android. You can also use it to mask your internet usage on a Mac or Windows computer. Google didn’t say when the VPN service will stop working completely, but it told 9to5Google that it’s discontinuing the feature because “people simply weren’t using it.” Instead of trying to drum up interest, it’s redirecting its resources to support other and more in-demand One features. However, you’ll still be able to use the free VPN that comes with Pixel devices even after One’s shuts down through the Settings app on Pixel 7 devices and newer models.
