The safer option is to simply switch off your VPN whenever you want to download things from the Play Store, then switch it back on when you’re done. Be warned that this may incur data usage charges if you’re not careful. To do this, go to Settings in the Play Store and change the options under “App download preference” and “Auto-update apps” to allow non Wi-Fi downloads. The higher-risk option is to allow to download over non Wi-Fi networks. There are two possible solutions to this. This means that if you’ve set apps to only download and update over a Wi-Fi connection, they won’t download if you’re using a VPN. There are calmer and easier ways to ensure that you can start downloading your desired app in any urgent situation.Ī strange quirk of the Google Play Store is that if you use a VPN, it tends to think that you’re not Wi-Fi. You also don’t have to reboot your Android phone or tablet or nervously search for another Wi-Fi provider.
But, in many cases, it’s not the Internet speed which is the real issue. Google does recommend having a strong Wi-Fi or carrier network for downloading Play store apps.
