- Google One VPN is being discontinued on June 20, 2024, and will be replaced by a Pixel-exclusive VPN service.
- The rebranding effort is already underway, with the app’s Play Store listing reflecting the new “Pixel VPN by Google” identity.
Earlier this year, Google announced the shutdown of its Google One VPN service, recently confirming that the service will cease to function on June 20, 2024. However, while “VPN by Google One” is going away, Google will continue to offer a virtual private network for Pixel owners. In preparation for that, the company has started rebranding its VPN service.
First spotted by 9to5Google, the app’s Play Store listing has been updated accordingly, reflecting the shift from “Pixel VPN by Google One” to “Pixel VPN by Google.” This change includes a fresh icon featuring a blue shield with a “G” at its center, replacing the previous Google One icon.
