I was able to enable it without upgrading ...I just checked - I'm being told it's a premium-level feature. I thought the Pixel 7 devices were supposed to get the Google One VPN free...
EDIT: apparently it was supposed to come with the December feature drop but some are getting it early. https://9to5google.com/2022/11/29/google-one-vpn-pixel-7/ Hopefully this won't turn into a classic Google "troll-out"...
I just checked on my Samsung Flip 4 and after installing the app. It's asking me for the upgrade for the VPNI wonder if it will be linked to your account or to your device? Meaning can I login to my Google account and use it on my Tab S8? Or can I only use it on my P7P?

I would assume that any device connected to the hotspot on your Pixel would be protected by the VPN. You wouldn't need the app on your tablet or PC that is getting its data from the phone.Or, if it's limited to the P7/P7P, does it run all data through the VPN, including any devices that might be connected when the Pixel's operating as a hotspot...
Well it's announced as a perk for p7 owners so it would make sense to check on the phone and not the account when in use without the upgrade..I would assume that any device connected to the hotspot on your Pixel would be protected by the VPN.

I think it's crap that the VPN will only work on the phone instead of it being connected to your account. Unless of course you upgrade to the 2tb.

That would make sense since you are on subscription but for those of us that want the freebie as part of the Pixel 7 purchase I'm thinking it would be phone driven ..but let's see if anything changes..I have the 2tb Google 1 account and this use it on all my phones.

It should be rolling in soon for most people... I shared above by our memberOn my 7pro, when I log into Google 1, it's telling me to upgrade to 2TB plan at $10/mo to get the VPN
