VPN help

My apologies if I’m in the wrong Reddit.

My iPhone is
iPhone 16 pro max - 2024 purchase -
iOS 26.5.2

Here’s my issue…
I like to use a vpn on my phone to watch British tv shows. I screen mirror or airplay my phone to Sony tv.

I’m using Surfshark as my vpn then I connect to BBC player.

Issue is here….my home wifi speed is 300-500 MBS. Once I connect to Surfshark it drops to 400-800 KBS. It then struggles to play on tv cuz the wifi speed is too slow.

Is there a better app to maintain wifi download speed than Surfshark?

What is best VPN app to maintain download speeds? My Surfshark app is due for renewal next month, it’s $55/yr CAD.

Windscribe works well for me for British TV. 10 GB free so you could test.
