How do I install Browsec VPN on a Mac?

Four steps from the order page to a protected Mac:

  1. 01

    Get Premium

    The desktop app is part of Browsec Premium. Buy the subscription first, the installer itself is free.

  2. 02

    Download the installer

    Pick the .pkg that matches your Mac: Apple Silicon (M1 and later) or Intel. Both need macOS 12 or newer. If GitHub is blocked in your country, use a mirror.

  3. 03

    Run the installer

    Open the downloaded package and go through the installer. macOS may ask for your password at the end.

  4. 04

    Sign in and connect

    Log in with your Browsec account, pick a location and click Connect.

Privacy made easy

Maximum protection

Your ISP and anyone on the same network see only encrypted traffic. Banking, passwords and logins from any program on the Mac stay hidden.

Total anonymity

Sites see the address of the Browsec server instead of your real IP. Streaming platforms, games and music services open as if you were in the country you picked.

Under your control

Pick a location from a list with live ping. Smart Rules let you send only chosen apps and services through the VPN, or everything except the ones you exclude.

Browsec VPN for macOS: Smart Rules

Security guarantee

Steadfast encryption

The app protects the whole macOS connection, so public Wi-Fi in a cafe or airport is as safe as your home network. A hacker on the same hotspot gets nothing readable.

Reliable connection

If the connection drops, the app reconnects on its own. It can also start with macOS and connect to your last server before you open a browser.

The best servers

Fast servers in every location, so pages and videos load at the speed your provider gives you.

What you get with Browsec VPN for macOS

Worldwide connection

46 server locations to choose from. Pick one and browse as if you were there.

System-wide encryption

A browser extension covers one browser. The Mac app covers every program on the computer, including games and messengers.

One-click protection

Connect and disconnect with a single click. The rest of the time the app runs in the background and stays out of the way.

Three protection modes

Full Protection sends everything through the VPN. Only chosen protects just the apps and services you tick, say a messenger and a streaming site. All except chosen is the reverse: everything is protected apart from what you leave out, like your bank.

Finally a VPN that doesn't tank my internet speed. Works perfectly on my M2 MacBook and the interface is super clean.

I needed something to protect my whole Mac, not just the browser. Browsec Desktop does exactly that and it's fast.

Setup took less than two minutes. Connected immediately and my IP was hidden. Exactly what I needed.
