### Installing a VPN
You are now ready to install applications from the Google Play Store. The first application we are going to install is a [VPN](/glossary/#vpn-virtual-private-network). If you can afford to pay for a VPN, we recommend both [Mullvad](https://www.privacyguides.org/en/vpn/#mullvad) and [IVPN](https://www.privacyguides.org/en/vpn/#ivpn). Otherwise, we recommend RiseupVPN. A VPN subscription should be purchased anonymously — vouchers are available from [Mullvad](https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2022/9/16/mullvads-physical-voucher-cards-are-now-available-in-11-countries-on-amazon/) and [IVPN](https://www.ivpn.net/knowledgebase/billing/voucher-cards-faq/) to purchase the subscription anonymously without cryptocurrency.

VPNs must be installed in each user profile separately. All standard GrapheneOS connections will be forced through the VPN (except for [connectivity checks](https://grapheneos.org/faq#default-connections), which can be optionally [disabled](https://privsec.dev/posts/android/android-tips/#connectivity-check)). We recommended using a VPN in every profile, for reasons that are well-summarized by the [Security Lab](https://securitylab.amnesty.org/latest/2023/10/technical-deep-dive-into-intellexa-alliance-surveillance-products/):
