Avira Phantom VPN
Avira Phantom VPN is a virtual private network application that encrypts internet traffic and routes it through Avira's server network. It's designed to protect user privacy and security, especially when using public WiFi networks, while also helping bypass geographic content restrictions. The app sits in the Mac status bar for easy access and offers both free and premium tiers. It's commonly used by privacy-conscious users who want to secure their browsing activity and protect sensitive data from potential hackers or surveillance.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionAvira continues to actively maintain Phantom VPN for Mac, with the latest version being 2.45.1 according to their official support documentation (newer than the 2.25.1 version you have installed). The app is available both through direct download from Avira's website and the Mac App Store. You should update to the latest version and monitor Avira's releases, as they appear to be actively developing the product. However, the search results don't definitively confirm whether the current version includes native Apple Silicon support, so you may want to check the app's system requirements or contact Avira support directly to confirm M1/M2 compatibility.
