User Reviews

User feedback consistently highlights four issues: poor dark mode usability, frequent VPN connectivity problems, regressions after updates that affect cross-device behavior, and gaps in OS/version compatibility (older iOS versions). Reviews frequently mention the VPN not connecting or dropping, a blank spinner on disconnect, and inconsistent network support, with some notes on certificate handling differences between iPad and iPhone. Overall, the app’s reliability and cross-version compatibility are major concerns.

Pros

Cons

Poor dark mode support: UI becomes unreadable in dark mode across multiple versions (white top ribbon; black labels on dark backgrounds).
Unreliable VPN connectivity: frequent connection failures, drops, and in some cases no data after connecting; sometimes a white loading spinner on disconnect and network-specific issues (e.g., only working on certain networks like Verizon LTE).
Update-related regressions and cross-device issues: new versions break VPN or certificate handling; iPad vs iPhone differences cause issues.
OS/version compatibility gaps: app shows lack of support for older iOS versions (iOS 12, 14.6) and indicates incomplete testing across OS versions.

Recent reviews

Does the app has support or they read these reviews to consider fixing the app?

Since the SDK update, if the iOS system is set for dark mode, then the app trys to respond to that. Appears that the app was not tested with dark mode, and now you can't read a bunch of text. So....fix dark mode? 2026-Dark mode still not fixed

It’s 2026 and the app still doesn’t properly support dark mode, and upon disconnecting from the VPN a blank white page with an infinite loading spinner appears. Where is the QA testing?
