Apple TV 4 – Unblock US Apps on New Apple TV with VPN

Now that you have downloaded US apps like Netflix, Hulu, HBO GO, Showtime, or NBC Sports on your 4th generation Apple TV, you have to bypass the regional restrictions imposed on these channels. To do so, you need an American IP address. Using VPN, you can change your location to US. Hence, you can unblock and watch American apps on Apple TV 4 in Canada, Australia, UK, or France.

• Using VPN unblocks all American channels on Apple TV at once. Watch HBO Go, HBO Now, Showtime, WWE Network, Crackle, Hulu, Netflix, and more.
• Apple TV 4 does not have a VPN client. You have to install VPN on your router instead.
• VPN allows you to encrypt all of you traffic.
• VPN bypasses DNS hijacking and transparent proxies alike.

The most important feature of any VPN provider is the speed of VPN servers. Below are the three VPN providers with the fastest US VPN servers. My favorite is ExpressVPN. But, the other two options are equally effective in unblocking American apps on Apple TV 4 outside USA.
