Star VPN Features

Every feature designed to deliver maximum privacy, speed and reliability for your online life.

Core Security Features

The security foundation behind Star VPN's trusted reputation.

AES-256 Encryption

All data transmitted through Star VPN is protected using AES-256, the gold standard in encryption trusted by banks, governments, and the military. Your internet traffic is completely unreadable to any third party.

Zero-Logs Policy

Star VPN maintains a strict no-logs policy independently audited and verified. We collect no browsing history, connection logs, IP addresses, DNS queries, or any other identifying information about your online activity.

Automatic Kill Switch

If your VPN connection drops for any reason, our automatic kill switch immediately cuts your internet connection to prevent any accidental exposure of your real IP address or unencrypted data.

DNS Leak Protection

Star VPN routes all DNS queries through its encrypted tunnel, preventing DNS leaks that could reveal your browsing activity to your internet service provider or other third parties.

Split Tunneling

Choose which apps use the VPN and which connect directly to the internet. Perfect for streaming local content while keeping sensitive business traffic encrypted through Star VPN servers.

RAM-Only Servers

Our servers run exclusively on RAM, meaning no data can ever be written to disk. When a server is powered off, all information is permanently and irreversibly erased.

VPN protocol technology

Advanced Protocol Technology

Star VPN supports three of the most advanced VPN protocols available today: WireGuard for maximum speed with state-of-the-art cryptography, OpenVPN for universal compatibility and proven security, and Amnezia for bypassing deep packet inspection in restrictive environments. You can switch between protocols with a single tap in the app.

Features FAQ

A residential VPN routes your traffic through IP addresses assigned to real homes by genuine ISPs. These IPs are considered trustworthy by websites and services because they appear identical to regular internet users. Datacenter IPs, by contrast, are easily detected and blocked by many services. Residential IPs provide seamless access to streaming platforms, social media, and any geo-restricted service without triggering security filters.

The kill switch monitors your VPN connection in real time. If the connection drops unexpectedly — due to server issues, network changes, or any other reason — the kill switch immediately blocks all internet traffic from your device. This ensures your real IP address and unencrypted data are never exposed, even for a fraction of a second during reconnection.

Yes. Star VPN allows you to select servers from 60+ countries. In many locations, you can also choose specific cities or regions. For residential plans, you can additionally specify the internet service provider (ISP) to get IPs from particular carriers — useful for specialized business use cases.

Amnezia is an obfuscated VPN protocol designed to bypass deep packet inspection (DPI) used by governments, ISPs, and organizations that try to block VPN traffic. If you are in a country with restrictive internet censorship or connecting from a network that blocks standard VPN protocols, Amnezia disguises your VPN traffic as regular HTTPS traffic to maintain your connection.
