Developed by the team behind NordVPN, Saily now boasts a virtual location option, built-in ad-blocker, and web protection tools. The team claims to be the first wireless provider "to introduce a layer of security to its offering.". "We are setting a new standard for mobile connectivity – one that prioritizes security, privacy, and innovation," says Vykintas Maknickas, CEO of Saily. "Backed by NordVPN experience, we are pioneering an eSIM connection that adds a level of protection from cyber threats without any additional apps.".

The Saily app now includes three extra privacy and security features. For starters, like the best VPN services, the virtual location allows you to mask your true IP address location to trick your internet service provider (ISP) into thinking you're browsing from a completely different country in no time. At the time of writing, there are 37 locations you can choose from.
This feature is convenient when traveling abroad to keep accessing websites as you'd do at home, or bypass any potential geo-restriction without downloading or signing up to another virtual private network (VPN) app. At the same time, a built-in ad-blocker and web protection tools will keep your device secure by blocking invasive ads, malware, and malicious or phishing websites while keeping online tracking at a minimum.
