Is it safe to sign in to the App Store to download and install an IOS app while using a VPN away from home?
I am residing for a month in a short-stay apartment while out of town, using the apartment’s wifi. The wifi is password-secured, but the same password is shared by the other dozen or so occupants.
I am using ExpressVPN, as far as I know a highly-rated VPN service. Is it safe to type in my Apple ID password when signing in to the App Store?
I am aware that I could turn off wifi and use the phone’s cellular data connection only, but I would like to stay within the wireless plan data cap for the month.
Related comment - Don’t try to make an Amazon purchase using a new device (new M1 MacBook Pro 
) while away from home and using a VPN. I tried this and was locked out of my Amazon account for security reasons 
. I eventually had to re-authenticate and change my Amazon password. It’s nice that Amazon is paying attention to security, but I wish I been warned about this or that I had the foresight to think of this.
