NordVPN drops "Android only" label on message protection, signaling iOS launch
What happened
Between the Nov 2, 2026 and Nov 9, 2026 captures of NordVPN's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Message protection no longer labelled 'Android only, iOS coming soon' on the plan comparison; iOS availability caveat removed, implying iOS support is now live. Pulse files it as a product change (feature change) with a neutral direction. The current page lists Basic at $3.49, Complete at $3.99 and Prime at $6.99.
It lands 14 days after NordVPN's previous change, "NordVPN: Black Friday intro discount deepens to 78% off (Complete plan)" (Oct 26, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "NordVPN: 3 comparison-table features removed, Message Protection + 1 more added" (Aug 31, 2026) and "NordVPN drops $1M/$100K coverage amounts from Prime card Coveron bullet" (Aug 17, 2026). NordVPN has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window ExpressVPN, CyberGhost VPN, Ava and Surfshark also changed their Cybersecurity & Identity Management pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
