More protection with the MeerGuard app for Windows
The extension protects only your browser tabs. The app protects the whole computer: Telegram, games and any program.
| Feature | Browser extension | Windows app |
|---|---|---|
| Browser protectionWebsites in your tabs open through the VPN, and your real IP address stays hidden. | Yes | Yes |
| Whole-computer protectionTelegram, games, email and any other program go through the VPN, not just the browser. | No | Yes |
| Kill switchIf the VPN drops, internet access is blocked until the connection is back, so no traffic slips past the VPN. In the app, turn it on in Settings. | Browser only | Whole computer |
Banking and government sites without the VPN
The app has site exclusions: add your bank or government services and they open directly, while everything else goes through the VPN.
