User Reviews

Top positives are easy setup, general reliability when connected, decent security (2FA), and some cross-device use (Chromebooks). Recurrent issues include crashes on startup, unreliable auto-connect, frequent disconnects/idle timeouts, and limited split tunneling with port restrictions. Overall, the app is usable for many, but reliability and feature limitations frustrate users needing seamless, always-on VPN and per-app control.

Pros

Easy to set up and user-friendly
Works / reliable when connected
Strong security features, including two-factor authentication
Cross-device compatibility (e.g., works on Chromebook)

Cons

Crashes or won't start on some devices/new phones
Auto-connect fails and requires manual connection
Disconnects frequently and idle timeouts disrupt VPN continuity
Limited split tunneling - no per-app control; only server/IP-based tunneling, with port restrictions (e.g., port 443)

Works 💪

Doesn't work

Da*****, 2024-11-02

The app is easy to use and does it's job creating a secure tunnel back to my home network. The big issue I have is the inability to exempt certain apps, for example Android Auto, from the VPN tunnel so they still function while encrypting all other traffic. The only split-tunneling that is available is on the server side and IP address based, which (a) applies to all connections not just individual android apps, and (b) wouldn't solve the issue for this particular use case.
