User Reviews

Overall sentiment mixes ease of use and perceived protection with frequent reliability and billing problems. The top pain points are: persistent connectivity issues and VPN instability; billing and cancelation headaches (renewals, charges, and incorrect status); app crashes and post-update instability; McAfee integration and a 250 MB data cap conflicting with unlimited VPN claims; and some Samsung-device compatibility problems. A minority report positive experiences when the service works, but the recurring issues drive widespread dissatisfaction.

Pros

EZ to use
Seems great
Love this protection
Excellent thankyou

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues: VPN fails to connect or disconnects and often shows no internet even when connected
Billing and cancellation problems: trouble canceling, renewal issues, and charges for unused service
App instability after updates: crashes, won’t open, icons disappear
McAfee integration and data-limit mismatch: 250 MB limit vs unlimited VPN claims
Samsung device compatibility issues: inconsistent performance and auto-connect problems on Samsung devices

Just replaced my old Samsung S23 for the new S26 and app simply doesn't work. The moment I open it there's a message "Oops! Something went wrong on our end." and there's nothing I can click to tey and solve it. Seems like I'll finally move to NordVPN.
