With an increasing number of online users seeking solutions to hide their identities from the outside world, privacy services have seen a spike in customers recently. The most common and widely used privacy services are VPNs that allow users to connect to the Internet while hiding their own IP-address.

Ive been using ItsHidden a great free VPN service that allows for 1mbps of free unlimited traffic, I thought this sounded perfect to use on my iPhone, here is how to configure the iPhone to tunnel all internet traffic through ItsHidden

Open the iPhone Settings and navigate to General.

Within General click Network.

Within Network click on the VPN “Not Configured” button.

Click “Add VPN Configuration”

This is the section that we add our It’s Hidden logon credentials, you’ll want to configure the settings as shown above (with your own username and password) and then click Save (top right)

Once the settings have been saved you’ll be sent back to the VPN screen, toggle the switch VPN from OFF to ON, the connection will be negotiated and eventually the Status will show as Connected.

Thats it! you are now using the It’s Hidden service for all your traffic, if you want to test that the service is working you can logon to http://iphone.tvcatchup.com/ which should display the message. “Sorry, our service is not yet available in Netherlands”
