TunnelBear Alternatives

As a virtual private network app that emphasizes ease of use and simplicity, TunnelBear can be found on Windows, macOS, as well as on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. However, as a freemium and closed source option, it is understandable if you would prefer to go with an open source alternative to TunnelBear for your VPN needs.

TunnelBear alternatives are mainly VPN Services but may also be VPN Clients or Anonymizing Networks. Filter by these if you want a narrower list of alternatives or looking for a specific functionality of TunnelBear.

    Psiphon or Ultrasurf are proxies and won't work for my Steam client. You want a VPN for that. It's not really an alternative. You can use Psiphon for surfing the web.
