Review summary

Private Wi-Fi offers automated VPN protection on open Wi-Fi networks, which users find valuable for secure browsing during travel or public Wi-Fi use. However, many users face problems with detection of open networks, setup errors, PIN verification issues, and persistent notification clutter. Customer support responsiveness is also a concern. While the app is easy to use and effective when working, stability and reliability issues reduce satisfaction for a portion of users.
Pros
  • Automatically activates VPN on unsecured Wi-Fi networks, providing security during travel and use of public Wi-Fi.
  • Offers a secure and private connection, especially useful for hotel and airport Wi-Fi.
  • Generally easy to set up and use without needing manual toggling.
  • Works well without noticeable slowdown or lag.
  • Is a valued addition to some users' plans, enhancing privacy on open networks.
Cons
  • Frequently fails to detect open Wi-Fi networks properly, thus not always activating the VPN as intended.
  • Users experience errors during setup and activation, including messages like "something went wrong" preventing app usage.
  • Some users report inability to proceed past the PIN verification or installation step.
  • The app sometimes keeps persistent notifications that cannot be disabled, causing clutter.
  • Support from the app and associated customer service (e.g., AT&T) is reported as unhelpful or slow to resolve issues.
