    HotSpot Shield

    Hi thomlyons,

    To uninstall HotSpot Shield you need to disable the VPN profile first. If you don't know how, please contact HotSpot Shield support for assistance. Once you have disabled the VPN profile follow the steps below to uninstall the app.

    1. Go to the app list and look for HotSpot Shield.

    2. Touch and hold the app.



    3. Then tap uninstall.

    Sincerely,

    Hotspot Shield VPN Accusation

    They install Conduit with their VPN. search (dot) conduit (dot) com. Sort of defeats the purpose of a VPN.
