• Our search feature is now more flexible. Type what feels natural, so you can get to your favorite locations faster than ever. US? Sure. Kangaroo? Alright, let’s check it out. • After the last updates, the “Recents” section would sometimes Houdini out of the server list. We’ve locked it in place — no more disappearing acts.

• A new Products tab has landed in the app. It replaces the Apps section in Settings and keeps all our security products within easy reach. Even if you don't use all of them right now, knowing where to find them already gives a sense of security. • Meshnet is here to stay! Over the past month, you’ve spoken up and reminded us just how much it can offer — not simply as a file sharing feature, but as a way to connect and collaborate. We heard you. Meshnet features will stay live and supported. • And about that text bug…On macOS 26 Tahoe, some text could occasionally show up upside down. Not ideal, unless you’re into handstands. We’ve fixed it.

• We moved all VPN controls from the status bar down to the dashboard, making it easier than ever to secure your connection. The Pause button got more time options along the way, and “Disconnect” joined them under the same roof. All important connection details, like your new IP and ISP, remain in the status bar at your disposal. • Some bugs set up camp around the VPN and dedicated IP. We sent them packing.

• Our support for macOS Big Sur 11 is coming to an end. If your Mac feels a little vintage, consider this a nudge to bring its software up to date. Give our app an update, too, for fresh security upgrades. • We gave our app a bug detox. Feeling lighter already.

• Our Help section just got a new look. If the app isn’t working quite right, you can easily get to our Support Center for quick answers and in-depth tutorials. You’ll also find your diagnostic logs there — whether you’re already solving an issue with our support team or channeling your inner digital detective.

• Nothing to report this time, at least nothing you can see. But rest assured — we’re working hard behind the scenes to keep your NordVPN app running smoothly.

• This update adds a new privacy consent. If you agree, we’ll collect limited app performance data to help us spot issues faster and focus on features you actually need. If you say no, we’ll respect your choice and only collect the essentials needed for the app to work properly. Your online activity stays private. Always. • We’re excited to introduce NordWhisper, our latest VPN protocol! If you’ve ever been on a network that restricts the use of VPNs, this is the solution you’ve been waiting for. Unlike traditional VPN protocols, it doesn't have distinct traffic signatures or behaviors that reveal it as a VPN connection. You can use NordWhisper with regular and P2P servers. • We fixed a visual glitch in auto-connect settings. The country picked for auto-connect will again represent an actual word rather than turning into a line. As inspiring as it is, abstract expressionism doesn’t belong in your settings.

• The map area is out, our new dashboard is in! Now you can find all your key security tools in one place. Manage the VPN, Threat Protection, and Dark Web Monitor and get insights into your security stats — like blocked files and malicious websites — so no threat slips by. • We’re saying goodbye to Presets. They had a good run, but nothing can beat Quick Connect when you’re looking for the fastest, most reliable server. And for those who prefer a specific country, set it to auto-connect. We’ll choose the quickest server automatically as soon as you connect to any network. • We also tweaked our status bar, improved contrast and readability, and fixed some bugs.

From now on, Dark Web Monitor takes you directly to your Nord Account dashboard, where you can conveniently manage your monitored email addresses and review found leaks. You’ll still get alerts in the app, but the full details unfold on the web.

• This update may not bring visible changes, and that's okay. We've been tweaking things under the hood to ensure your NordVPN app runs smoother than ever. It's the invisible work that often makes the biggest difference.

• We’ve tinkered with the internal workings and polished some rough edges. The result? An app that’s better than ever before.

• We fixed the “No network” alert that would start blinking after your Mac woke up. Now these notifications are sparse, relevant, and respectful towards your time. • Another bug hunt proved to be a success. This time we polished up Meshnet and a couple of general VPN cases.

• As quantum computing advances, so do our measures to protect your data. You can now enable post-quantum encryption against the cyber threats of the future — all you need to do is go to your general settings and toggle on the switch. Because it’s always better to be prepared than to wish you were. Or, as they say: "Be quantum-proof." • We did a swift sidebar shuffle. Specialty servers have landed at the top, so you can connect to Dedicated IP, P2P, Double VPN, or Onion Over VPN with less scrolling. Meanwhile presets have taken a calmer spot down below.

• The green indicator for the “Dedicated IP” specialty server now consistently shows in the sidebar when the connection is active. The game of hide-and-seek in the server menu is officially over. • Dark Web Monitor sometimes avoided adding new emails if the address was too long. It’s back on duty now, monitoring all of your accounts 24/7. • General settings were a little slow to respond. We got it running smoother and faster. Update and zoom ahead.

A few fixes here and there to ensure your VPN app works as expected. Update the app now to make sure you don’t miss a thing.

• The year has just started, but our bug-hunting department is already hard at work. A couple pesky bugs that disrupted VPN and Meshnet performance are gone. • New animations and illustrations on the login screen bring a warmer touch.

• We’re elevating your online security one release at a time. This update comes with improvements and fixes for a top-notch NordVPN experience.

• When Meshnet is off, the screen no longer just stares blankly at you. It now offers links to handy guides on how Meshnet can simplify your digital life. Explore real-life use cases you can try right away. • We stumbled upon a few bugs during our routine check-up. No worries – none of them were too tough for our expert bug-hunting department. Update to keep these unwelcome guests out for good.

Our eSIM app for travelers, Saily, is now in the apps list in Settings. It’s perfect for staying connected abroad without needing a physical SIM.

• New: Wondering if your personal data is on the dark web? Our enhanced Dark Web Monitor is here to shine light into its darkest corners. Now you can add up to 50 email addresses. We'll monitor them for leaks and alert you at the first sign of trouble. • Meshnet would sometimes stop working if you disconnected from the VPN. You can now count on more consistent performance. • A few visual fixes here and there for a sleeker app experience.

• Fixed: The network name in the auto-connect settings sometimes looked more like an alien script – now we’re back to speaking human!
